The present invention relates to immune stimulating micelle compositions, and their use in treatment of diseases and disorders, such as cancer. In particular, the present invention relates to micelle compositions comprising a TLR7 agonist, such as 1V270.

The present invention relates to novel recombinant fusion proteins, such as human antibody-based molecules called Vaccibodies, which are able to trigger both a T cell- and B cell immune response. The present invention also relates to a method of treating a cancer or an infectious disease by means of these specific fusion proteins.

The present application discloses a method of treating cancer, including administering to a person suffering from cancer or in remission from cancer, an antigen presenting cell loaded with an immunogenic CD4 T cell activating antigen and a CD8 T cell activating neoantigen specific for the cancer.

A method of producing dendritic gold nanoparticles by combining a gold precursor solution, a reducing agent, and a bifunctional peptide having an amine-rich amino acid sequence into a buffered aqueous solution in a single container, and agitating the mixture causing the formation of the dendritic gold nanoparticles having a surface with a positive charge and a second end portion of the bifunctional peptide exposed on the surface of the dendritic gold nanoparticles. The dendritic gold nanoparticles may be used to deliver therapeutic, diagnostic, and/or immunogenic amino acid sequences as portions of the bifunctional peptide.

The present disclosure relates to methods and compositions for inducing an immune response in a subject comprising providing to the subject a peptide or protein vaccine and a binding agent, such as a bispecific antibody, binding to PD-L1 and CD137, such as human PD-L1 and human CD137, e.g., by co-administering to the subject a peptide or protein used for vaccination or a polynucleotide, in particular RNA, encoding a peptide or protein used for vaccination, and a binding agent binding to PD-L1 and CD137 or a polynucleotide, in particular RNA, encoding a binding agent binding to PD-L1 and CD137. The present disclosure further relates to medical preparations useful in the methods disclosed herein.

The present invention relates to novel recombinant fusion proteins, such as human antibody-based molecules called Vaccibodies, which are able to trigger both a T cell- and B cell immune response. The present invention also relates to a method of treating a cancer or an infectious disease by means of these specific fusion proteins.

A delivery system for delivering water-soluble components and water-insoluble components of whole-cell components using nano-sized or micro-sized particles, and a use of which in preparing vaccines for preventing and treating cancer. The whole-cell components delivery system consisting of a nano-sized or micron-sized particle and whole-cell components loaded on the particle, the whole-cell components are water-soluble components and water-insoluble components of a whole cell in a cell or tissue. The mutated proteins or peptides produced by cancer in cellular components are loaded on nanoparticles or micronparticles. These immunogenic substances generated by mutations in disease in whole-cell components can be used for cancer prevention and treatment and preparing vaccines for preventing and/or treating cancer.
