The present invention relates to peptides, proteins, nucleic acids and cells for use in immunotherapeutic methods. In particular, the present invention relates to the immunotherapy of cancer. The present invention furthermore relates to tumor-associated T-cell peptide epitopes, alone or in combination with other tumor-associated peptides that can for example serve as active pharmaceutical ingredients of vaccine compositions that stimulate anti-tumor immune responses, or to stimulate T-cells ex vivo and transfer into patients. Peptides bound to molecules of the major histocompatibility complex (MHC), or peptides as such, can also be targets of antibodies, soluble T-cell receptors, and other binding molecules.

A method of treating a patient who has hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), colorectal carcinoma (CRC), glioblastoma (GB), gastric cancer (GC), esophageal cancer, NSCLC, pancreatic cancer (PC), renal cell carcinoma (RCC), benign prostate hyperplasia (BPH), prostate cancer (PCA), ovarian cancer (OC), melanoma, breast cancer (BRCA), CLL, Merkel cell carcinoma (MCC), SCLC, Non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL), AML, gallbladder cancer and cholangiocarcinoma (GBC, CCC), urinary bladder cancer (UBC), and uterine cancer (UEC) includes administering to said patient a composition containing a population of activated T cells that selectively recognize cells in the patient that aberrantly express a peptide. A pharmaceutical composition contains activated T cells that selectively recognize cells in a patient that aberrantly express a peptide, and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier, in which the T cells bind to the peptide in a complex with an MHC class I molecule, and the composition is for treating the patient who has HCC, CRC, GB, GC, esophageal cancer, NSCLC, PC, RCC, BPH, PCA, OC, melanoma, BRCA, CLL, MCC, SCLC, NHL, AML, GBC, CCC, UBC, and/or UEC. A method of treating a patient who has HCC, CRC, GB, GC, esophageal cancer, NSCLC, PC, RCC, BPH, PCA, OC, melanoma, BRCA, CLL, MCC, SCLC, NHL, AML, GBC, CCC, UBC, and/or UEC includes administering to said patient a composition comprising a peptide in the form of a pharmaceutically acceptable salt, thereby inducing a T-cell response to the HCC, CRC, GB, GC, esophageal cancer, NSCLC, PC, RCC, BPH, PCA, OC, melanoma, BRCA, CLL, MCC, SCLC, NHL, AML, GBC, CCC, UBC, and/or UEC.

The present disclosure relates to compositions and methods for compositions, methods, and kits for treating cancer using chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) modified cells. Some embodiments of the present disclosure relate to an isolated nucleic acid sequence encoding CAR. The CAR may include an antigen binding domain, a transmembrane domain, a costimulatory signaling region, and a CD3 zeta signaling domain. The antigen binding domain may bind to an antigen of a non-essential organ.

The present invention furthermore relates to tumor-associated T-cell peptide epitopes, alone or in combination with other tumor-associated peptides that can for example serve as active pharmaceutical ingredients of vaccine compositions that stimulate anti-tumor immune responses, or to stimulate T cells ex vivo and transfer into patients. Peptides bound to molecules of the major histocompatibility complex (MHC), or peptides as such, can also be targets of antibodies, soluble T-cell receptors, and other binding molecules.

Provided herein are proteins comprising an anti-CD26 antigen-binding domain. Also provided herein are methods of treating an aging-related disease or an inflammatory disease in a subject that include administering to the subject one of these proteins or a cell expressing one of these proteins.

Disclosed are compositions and methods for an immunotherapy in a subject containing a vaccine construct for an immunization against a purified tumor antigen and a checkpoint inhibitor for treating a tumor in the subject, in which the tumor is characterized as comprising a low frequency of neoantigen expression and the composition potentiates an anti-tumor immune response without inducing autoimmunity in the subject. A pharmaceutical composition containing the composition as an active component and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier, and a combinatorial composition containing a vaccine construct for an immunization against a purified tumor antigen and an immune checkpoint inhibitor, in which the tumor is characterized as comprising a low frequency of neoantigen expression, are also described.

The present disclosure relates generally to the field of immunotherapy. In particular, the present disclosure describes to 20 single nucleotide variants (SNVs) within the A20 coding sequence that can differentially impact the immune system. Differential expression of the identified A20 SNVs can be used to “tune” the immune system of a subject e.g., tune up or tune down the sensitivity and/or strength of the immune system of a subject in response to a treatment or a pathogen. On the basis, the present disclosure provides methods for modulating the immune system of a subject by modulating the A20 SNV expression profile in the subject, thereby “tuning” the immune system. The present disclosure also describes reagents for use in such methods. The methods and reagents may have application in the treatment and/or management of diseases/conditions such as, for example, cancer, autoimmune disease, pathogenic infection, complement deficiency, and transplant rejection, where the strength of a subject's immune system plays an important role. The present disclosure also describes methods in which the A20 SNVs are used as biomarkers to stratify subjects according to the strength of their immune system e.g., strong or poor immune response relative to a reference A20 genotype, and the use of such methods in personalised medicine.

This invention is directed to chimeric antigen receptors and cells comprising the same, wherein the cells further secrete monoclonal antibodies locally at a tumor site.

The present invention encompasses a cancer vaccine therapy targeting Aspartyl-[Asparaginyl]-β-hydroxylase (HAAH). The present invention contemplate bacteriophage expressing HAAH peptide fragments and methods for using said bacteriophage in methods of treating cancer.
