The present invention relates to peptides, proteins, nucleic acids and cells for use in immunotherapeutic methods. In particular, the present invention relates to the immunotherapy of cancer. The present invention furthermore relates to tumor-associated T-cell peptide epitopes, alone or in combination with other tumor-associated peptides that can for example serve as active pharmaceutical ingredients of vaccine compositions that stimulate anti-tumor immune responses, or to stimulate T cells ex vivo and transfer into patients. Peptides bound to molecules of the major histocompatibility complex (MHC), or peptides as such, can also be targets of antibodies, soluble T-cell receptors, and other binding molecules.

A method of treating a patient who has hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), colorectal carcinoma (CRC), glioblastoma (GB), gastric cancer (GC), esophageal cancer, NSCLC, pancreatic cancer (PC), renal cell carcinoma (RCC), benign prostate hyperplasia (BPH), prostate cancer (PCA), ovarian cancer (OC), melanoma, breast cancer (BRCA), CLL, Merkel cell carcinoma (MCC), SCLC, Non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL), AML, gallbladder cancer and cholangiocarcinoma (GBC, CCC), urinary bladder cancer (UBC), and uterine cancer (UEC) includes administering to said patient a composition containing a population of activated T cells that selectively recognize cells in the patient that aberrantly express a peptide. A pharmaceutical composition contains activated T cells that selectively recognize cells in a patient that aberrantly express a peptide, and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier, in which the T cells bind to the peptide in a complex with an MHC class I molecule, and the composition is for treating the patient who has HCC, CRC, GB, GC, esophageal cancer, NSCLC, PC, RCC, BPH, PCA, OC, melanoma, BRCA, CLL, MCC, SCLC, NHL, AML, GBC, CCC, UBC, and/or UEC. A method of treating a patient who has HCC, CRC, GB, GC, esophageal cancer, NSCLC, PC, RCC, BPH, PCA, OC, melanoma, BRCA, CLL, MCC, SCLC, NHL, AML, GBC, CCC, UBC, and/or UEC includes administering to said patient a composition comprising a peptide in the form of a pharmaceutically acceptable salt, thereby inducing a T-cell response to the HCC, CRC, GB, GC, esophageal cancer, NSCLC, PC, RCC, BPH, PCA, OC, melanoma, BRCA, CLL, MCC, SCLC, NHL, AML, GBC, CCC, UBC, and/or UEC.

The present disclosure is directed to the treatment of diseases or conditions characterized by the buildup of fatty tissue, or hyperphagia, such as Prader-Willi syndrome, obesity, metabolic syndrome, type II diabetes, etc. A composition containing a monoclonal antibody directed against gastric inhibitory polypeptide is administered. This results in a reduced rate of weight gain, weight loss, and/or reduction in fatty tissue, and a marked decrease in lipid synthesis and accumulation.

An interleukin which binds to IL-2 receptor (IL-2R), or a nucleotide sequence encoding therefor, wherein the interleukin or nucleotide sequence is adapted to be targeted to the liver.

The disclosure pertains to conformational epitopes in oligomeric tau, antibodies thereto and methods of making and using immunogens and antibodies specific thereto. The antibodies bind activity neutralizing sites in tau. Also provided are methods for making and using, including methods for treating a tauopathy.

The invention provides an AMH-INH-GNIH tri-expression gene vaccine capable of improving fecundity of animals and a preparation method of engineering strain thereof. The engineering strain was deposited in China Center for Type Culture Collection on Aug. 15, 2018, with deposit No.: CCTCC NO:M 2018544. When the engineering strain is used for direct immunization of animals or immunization of animals after being mixed with DNA vaccine adjuvant, the fecundity of the animals can be effectively improved. The tri-expression gene is a tri-expression non-resistant DNA plasmid of Mullerian duct resisting hormone, inhibin and gonadotropin release restraining hormone, which can be used for direct immunization of the animals through mucosa immunization to generate antibodies in the manner of being sprayed to noses, orally administered, blended into feeds and the like. Since the gene vaccine does not contain a resistant gene, exogenous antibiotics do not need to be introduced for screening, and antibiotic residues are not generated. Compared with other gene vaccines which need plasmid extraction and purification, high production cost and inconvenient intramuscular injection, and enable the animals to generate stress response, the gene vaccine of the invention is lower in production cost and more convenient to use, and is free from resistance and injection stress response.

This disclosure relates to materials and methods useful for vaccinating mammals against the effects of envenomation by venomous organisms (including the Western Rattlesnake) by making use of venom from multiple distinct populations, subspecies or species of the organism, to make a vaccine more broadly protective against other populations, subspecies or species.
