Described herein in part are silanol based therapeutic payloads comprising a silanol terminus, a divalent spacer moiety, and a drug moiety capable of effecting a target cell or tissue.

This disclosure provides cell surface anchoring conjugates, formulations comprising cell surface anchoring conjugates, TLR agonist and methods of using the same for boosting immunity in a subject and treating tumor cell and cancer.

A method for treating Candida auris in blood, comprising administering to the blood taurolidine, and/or one or more taurolidine derivatives, in a concentration which is effective to treat C. auris in the blood.

The present invention provides a universal, yet adaptable, anti-tag chimeric antigen receptor (AT-CAR) system which provides T cells with the ability and specificity to recognize and kill target cells, such as tumor cells, that have been marked by tagged antibodies. As an example, ?FITC-CAR-expressing T cells have been developed that specifically recognize various human cancer cells when those cells are bound by cancer-reactive FITC-labeled antibodies. The activation of ?FITC-CAR-expressing T cells is shown to induce efficient target lysis, T cell proliferation, and cytokine/chemokine production. The system can be used to treating subjects having cancer.

A method of treating disorders associated with aberrant kinase activity, wherein the kinase is. IRAK3, GAK, TEC, PTK2B(PYK2), AURKA, RPS6KA1(RSK3), MAPK9(JNK2), BTK, PTK2 or AKT2, said method comprising degrading said kinase.

Described herein in part are silanol based therapeutic payloads comprising a silanol terminus, a divalent spacer moiety, and a drug moiety capable of effecting a target cell or tissue.

In some embodiments, a lipofullerene-saccharide compound and a method of inhibiting and/or ameliorating metastasis of neoplastic cells using said compound is disclosed herein. The lipofullerene-saccharide compound may be used in therapeutically effective doses to inhibit the metastasis of neoplasms in mammals. In some embodiments, the method may include administering to a subject an effective amount of a pharmaceutically acceptable formulation including a lipofullerene-saccharide compound. In some embodiments, the lipofullerene-saccharide compound may be formed by reacting (e.g., coupling) a lipid and a saccharide with a fullerene. In some embodiments, neoplastic cells may include pancreatic cancer cells, prostate cancer cells, lung cancer cells, breast cancer cells, colon cancer cells, and/or brain cancer cells. A significant anti-metastatic effect has been observed on a metastatic nude-mouse model of human pancreatic cancer BxPC-3 cell lines constructed orthotopically as a result of therapeutic treatment with the lipofullerene-saccharide conjugate.

Described are novel targeting ligands that may be linked to compounds, such therapeutic compounds that are useful in directing the compounds to the in vivo target. The targeting ligands disclosed herein can serve to target expression-inhibiting oligomeric compounds, such as RNAi agents, to liver cells to modulate gene expression. The targeting ligands disclosed herein, when conjugated to a therapeutic compound, may be used in a variety of applications, including use in therapeutic, diagnostic, target validation, and genomic discovery applications. Compositions including the targeting ligands disclosed herein when linked to expression-inhibiting oligomeric compounds are capable of mediating expression of target nucleic acid sequences in liver cells, such as hepatocytes, which may be useful in the treatment of diseases or conditions that respond to inhibition of gene expression or activity in a cell, tissue, or organism.

Described herein in part are silanol based therapeutic payloads comprising a silanol terminus, a divalent spacer moiety, and a drug moiety capable of effecting a target cell or tissue.

The present invention provides a method for selective delivery of a therapeutic or diagnostic agent to a targeted organ or tissue by implanting a biocompatible solid support in the patient being linked to a first binding agent, and administering a second binding agent to the patient linked to the therapeutic or diagnostic agent, such that the therapeutic or diagnostic agent accumulates at the targeted organ or tissue.
