METHODS OF IMAGING USING MULTIPLE IMAGING AGENTS
Methods of non-invasively imaging a subject using two or more antigen-binding constructs that selectively bind to immune cell markers are described.
CXCR4/CXCR7 blockade and treatment of human papilloma virus-associated disease
The present invention relates to methods and compositions for treating human papilloma virus (HPV)-associated diseases using an inhibitor of CXCL12 signaling. The invention further relates to methods and compositions for treating immune checkpoint blockade resistant diseases using an inhibitor of CXCL12 signaling. The invention further relates to methods and compositions for enhancing the immune response against an HPV-associated disease using an inhibitor of CXCL12 signaling.
Therapeutic and diagnostic methods relating to cancer stem cells
The present invention relates in part to the discovery of genes that are deregulated in cancer stem cells (e.g., melanoma stem cells). In some aspects, methods for treating individuals having melanoma are provided; the methods involve modulating (e.g., inducing, inhibiting, etc.) the activity of the cancer stem cell associated genes. In other aspects, cell surface genes that are upregulated in melanoma stem cells are targeted for the selective isolation, detection, and killing of cancer stem cells in melanoma. Other aspects of the invention relate to reagents, arrays, compositions, and kits that are useful for diagnosing and treating melanoma.
BIOCOMPATIBLE POLYMERIC DRUG CARRIERS FOR DELIVERING ACTIVE AGENTS
The present disclosure relates to the delivery of multiple copies of a payload molecule such as an active agent or a chelating agent capable of capturing an active agent, using as a carrier for their delivery a biocompatible copolymer comprising side chain-linked amino acids functionalized at their alpha-amino group by a reactive azide moiety by means of which the payload molecules are coupled to the copolymer. The copolymer is typically further functionalized to contain a single copy of a cell type- or tissue type-specific targeting moiety.
Compositions and methods relating to T peripheral helper cells in autoantibody-associated conditions
This disclosure provides methods and compositions for detecting Tph cells and/or reducing the number (or frequency) and/or activity of such cells in order to provide therapeutic benefit to a subject having or at risk of developing an autoantibody-associated condition such as an autoantibody-associated autoimmune disease.
METHOD OF PROVIDING DISEASE-SPECIFIC BINDING MOLECULES AND TARGETS
Provided are novel specific binding molecules, particularly human antibodies as well as fragments, derivatives and variants thereof that recognize neoepitopes of disease-associated proteins which derive from native endogenous proteins but are prevalent in the body of a patient in a variant form and/or out of their normal physiological context. In addition, pharmaceutical compositions comprising such binding molecules, antibodies and mimics thereof and methods of screening for novel binding molecules, which may or may not be antibodies as well as targets in the treatment of neurological disorders such as Alzheimer's disease are described.
RADIOIMMUNOCONJUGATE FOR USE IN TREATING BONE MARROW ASSOCIATED DISEASES
The present invention relates to the use of radioimmunoconjugates for the treatment of bone marrow associated diseases, particularly AL-amyloidosis.
A DOTA binding chimeric antigen receptor for cellular therapy
The present invention includes compositions and methods that utilize a Universal Immune Receptor (UnivIR) CAR system comprising a modified T cell comprising a DOTA CAR and a DOTA-conjugated targeting ligand. In certain embodiments, the invention includes methods for treating, ameliorating, and/or preventing cancer. In certain embodiments, the invention provides a set of complementary molecular imaging tools that is applicable to CAR T cell therapy.
Anti-CD8 antibodies and uses thereof
Anti-CD8 antibodies, radiolabeled anti-CD8 antibodies, fluorescently labeled anti-CD8 antibodies and their use in imaging are provided herein. Included are methods of detecting the presence of CD8 proteins in a subject or sample.
ALBUMIN-PD-1 PACLITAXEL NANOPARTICLE COMPLEX COMPOSITIONS AND METHODS OF MAKING AND USING THE SAME
Described herein are compositions of antibodies and carrier proteins and methods of making and using the same, in particular, as a cancer therapeutic. Also described are lyophilized compositions of antibodies and carrier proteins and methods of making and using the same, in particular, as a cancer therapeutic.
