The present disclosure provides modified immune cells or precursors thereof (e.g. T cells) comprising chimeric antigen receptors (CARs) capable of binding human IL13R2. Also provided are bispecific CARs, parallel CARs, tandem CARs, BiTEs, BiTE/CARs, and BiTE/BiTEs. Compositions and methods of treatment are also provided.

Chimeric antigen receptors targeted to IL-13Ra2 are described. The targeting domain is a IL13 variant having increased specificity for IL-13Ra2 relative to IL-13Ra1.

The present invention provides a complex for use in the prevention and/or treatment of cancer, the complex comprising a) a cell penetrating peptide, b) at least one antigen or antigenic epitope, and c) at least one TLR peptide agonist, wherein the components a)-c) are covalently linked. In particular, compositions for use in the prevention and/or treatment of cancer, such as a pharmaceutical compositions and vaccines are provided.

The invention provides vector compositions for delivering improved adoptive T cell therapies.

Combination therapeutics for the treatment of cancer include the use of immune effector cells, IL-15 based superagonists and one or more immunotherapeutic agents such as Bacillus Calmette-Guerin (BCG).

The invention provides compositions and methods for treating diseases associated with expression of CD123. The invention also relates to chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) specific to CD123, vectors encoding the same, and recombinant cells comprising the CD123 CAR. The invention also includes methods of administering a genetically modified cell expressing a CAR that comprises a CD123 binding domain.

Conjugates of an antibody that binds to CD25 with PBD dimers.

The present invention relates to protein NS2b or fragment(s) thereof as biomarker or diagnostic marker for the diagnosis and/or prognosis of Zika virus infections. The present invention further relates to peptides and cyclic peptides, compositions and arrays and multimer compounds comprising them. The present invention further relates to a method for the diagnosis and/or prognosis of Zika virus infections, comprising the use of protein NS2b or fragment(s) thereof, or of the peptides, cyclic peptides, compositions and/or arrays in immunoassays. The present invention further relates to peptide-based compounds comprising at least one fragment of protein NS2b and at least one further component and to methods for the diagnosis and/or prognosis of Zika virus infections.

Conjugates of an antibody that binds to CD25 with PBD dimers.

The present invention provides immunoresponsive cells, including T cells, cytotoxic T cells, regulatory T cells, and Natural Killer (NK) cells, expressing at least one of an antigen recognizing receptor and one of a chimeric costimulatory receptor. Methods of using the immunoresponsive cell include those for the treatment of neoplasia and other pathologies where an increase in an antigen-specific immune response is desired.
