Disclosed herein are compositions and methods for cancer immunotherapy, and more particularly immune cells loaded with protein clusters and/or immunostimulatory fusion molecules (IFMs), in combination with an inhibitor of a checkpoint inhibitor.

The present disclosure provides anti-KRAS antibodies, and antigen-binding fragments thereof. In certain embodiments, the anti-KRAS antibodies or fragments thereof, are used for the treatment of cancer.

Methods are disclosed for inhibiting the development of a tumor in a subject. The methods include administering to a subject a therapeutically effective amount of a dominant negative tumor necrosis factor (DN-TNF)-α protein and/or a nucleic acid encoding the DN-TNF-α protein. The DN-TNF-α protein and/or a nucleic acid encoding the DN-TNF-α protein can be administered alone or in combination with other agents.

The present invention provides a modified human cancer cell comprising a recombinant polynucleotide encoding an allele of a human leukocyte antigen gene. The present invention also provides methods for selecting a whole-cell cancer vaccine for a subject having cancer and methods of treating cancer using whole-cell cancer vaccines of the present invention. In addition, the present invention provides a method of determining the HER2 status of a cell. Compositions and kits are also provided herein.

The present application relates generally to genetically modified arenaviruses that are suitable vaccines against neoplastic diseases, such as cancer. The arenaviruses described herein may be suitable for vaccines and/or treatment of neoplastic diseases and/or for the use in immunotherapies. In particular, provided herein are methods and compositions for treating a neoplastic disease by administering a genetically modified arenavirus in combination with an immune checkpoint inhibitor, wherein the arenavirus has been engineered to include a nucleotide sequence encoding a tumor antigen, tumor associated antigen or antigenic fragment thereof.

The present invention provides compositions and methods for treating cancer in a subject by eliciting an immune response against a MIC alpha 3-domain polypeptide.

A method is disclosed for treating a cancer in a subject. The method comprises administering to the subject a composition comprising a therapeutically effective amount of a checkpoint inhibitor and a therapeutically effective amount of a tumor vaccine. In some embodiments, the tumor vaccine comprises radiated autologous tumor cells and a cell line engineered to express GM-CSF and CD40 ligand. In some embodiments, the checkpoint inhibitor comprises an anti-PD-1 antibody (e.g., BMS 936558), anti-PD-L1 antibody (e.g., cloneM1H1), anti-CTLA-4 antibody (e.g., Ipilimumab, BMS), or any combination thereof.

The present invention relates to an anti-tumor composition which includes a GM-CSF gene; an Flt3L-TRAIL fusion gene; shRNA inhibiting TGF-β expression; and shRNA inhibiting HSP expression.

Provided herein are compositions and methods to treat cancer using quantum dynamic capabilities to optimize therapeutic design and development for cancer therapeutics.
