CANCER PREVENTION AND THERAPY BY INHIBITING SOLUBLE TUMOR NECROSIS FACTOR

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)-? protein and/or a nucleic acid encoding the DN-TNF-? protein. The DN-TNF-? protein and/or a nucleic acid encoding the DN-TNF-? protein can be administered alone or in combination with other agents.

METHOD OF TREATING A TUMOR WITH A COMBINATION OF AN IL-7 PROTEIN AND A NUCLEOTIDE VACCINE

The present disclosure relates to methods of treating a tumor with a nucleotide vaccine (e.g., DNA vaccine encoding a tumor antigen) in combination with an IL-7. In some aspects, the IL-7 is administered after the administration of the nucleotide vaccine (e.g., after the peak expansion phase of the tumor-specific T cell immune response) or concurrently with the nucleotide vaccine.

COMPLEXES OF IL-15 AND IL-15RALPHA AND USES THEREOF

The present invention relates to agents that modulate interleukin-15 (IL-15) signal transduction or function (Therapeutic Agents) and the use ol those agents to modulate immune function. The Therapeutic Agents target the interaction between IL-15 and its receptor and modulate IL-15-induced signal transduction. The Therapeutic Agents may be formulated with polymers, such as poly-?-1-?4-N-acetylglucosamine. for administration to a human subject to modulate IL-15-mediated immune function.
