Isolated IMP-3-derived epitope peptides having Th1 cell inducibility are disclosed herein. Such peptides can be recognized by MHC class II molecules and induce Th1 cells. The peptides of the present invention can promiscuously bind to MHC class II molecules and induce IMP-3-specific cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTLs) in addition to Th1 cells. Such peptides are thus suitable for use in enhancing immune response in a subject, and accordingly find use in cancer immunotherapy, in particular, as cancer vaccines. Also disclosed herein are polynucleotides that encode any of the aforementioned peptides, APCs and Th1 cells induced by such peptides and methods of induction associated therewith. Pharmaceutical compositions that comprise any of the aforementioned components as active ingredients find use in the treatment and/or prevention of cancers or tumors expressing IMP-3.

The present description relates to peptides, proteins, nucleic acids and cells for use in immunotherapeutic methods. In particular, the present description relates to the immunotherapy of cancer. The present description further 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.

The disclosure provides methods of producing neoantigens, comprising bringing a tumor cell culture in contact with an antisense oligonucleotide; and further, recovering the neoantigens; as well as immunogenic compositions comprising these neoantigens. The disclosure further provides methods of inducing an immune response in a subject against a cancer such as glioblastoma; and methods of treating a cancer such as glioblastoma in a subject comprising administering to the subject a therapeutically effective amount of the neoantigens and compositions disclosed herein.

Provided herein are cell surface receptors that include an extracellular binding domain, a transmembrane domain, an intracellular signaling domain, and a protease cleavage site disposed between the extracellular binding domain and the intracellular signaling domain. In certain aspects, the cell surface receptors are engineered cell surface receptors, such as chimeric antigen receptors (CARs). Also provided are cells that include such receptors (e.g., where the cells express the receptors on their surface) and pharmaceutical compositions including such cells. Nucleic acids that encode the cell surface receptors, cells including such nucleic acids, and pharmaceutical compositions including such cells, are also provided. Also provided are methods for regulating signaling of a cell surface receptor, and methods of using the cells of the present disclosure, including methods of using such cells to administer a regulatable cell-based therapy to an individual.

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.

The present invention relates to nucleic acid vaccines which encode at least a MAGED4B protein, for use in the treatment of cancer in particular. Synergistic combinations with other anti-cancer agents are described, particularly immune checkpoint inhibitors. The cancer vaccine may further comprise an immunologically active fragment to enhance the immune response, and an additional cancer antigen, such as FJX1. Particular combination therapies of interest include immunotherapies, radiotherapy, targeted therapies and chemotherapies.

Disclosed herein is a method of providing an anti-cancer immunity in a subject with a bone metastatic cancer. The method involves co-administering to the subject an effective amount of a gamma-delta T cell stimulating agent and an effective amount of a γδ CAR T cell that binds a tumor antigen, such as a prostate antigen for bone metastatic prostate cancer, or a breast cancer antigen for bone metastatic breast cancer. Also disclosed herein is a recombinant T cell that expresses a gamma-delta T cell receptor (TCR) and a chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) polypeptide.
