Provided are compositions comprising newly identified protein fragments of aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases, polynucleotides that encode them and complements thereof, related agents, and methods of use thereof in diagnostic, drug discovery, research, and therapeutic applications.

The present invention generally relates to fusion proteins of immunoglobulins and interleukin-2 (IL-2). In addition, the present invention relates to polynucleotides encoding such fusion proteins, and vectors and host cells comprising such polynucleotides. The invention further relates to methods for producing the fusion proteins of the invention, and to methods of using them in the treatment of disease.

The present invention provides a compound of formula I:

##STR00001##

a method for manufacturing the compounds of the invention, and its therapeutic uses. The present invention further provides a combination of pharmacologically active agents and a pharmaceutical composition.

Heterocyclic pyrimidine compounds that modulate mutant-selective epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) and ALK kinase activity are disclosed. More specifically, the invention provides pyrimidines which inhibit, regulate and/or modulate kinase receptor, particularly in selectively modulation of various EGFR mutant activity and ALK kinase activity have been disclosed. Pharmaceutical compositions comprising the pyrimidine derivative, and methods of treatment for diseases associated with protein kinase enzymatic activity, particularly EGFR or ALK kinase activity including non-small cell lung cancer comprising administration of the pyrimidine derivative are disclosed.

Polymorphs of a hydrochloride salt of (S)-2-(1-(9H-purin-6-ylamino)propyl)-5-fluoro-3-phenylquinazolin-4(3H)-one, compositions thereof, methods for their preparation, and methods for their use are disclosed. Solvent forms of a hydrochloride salt of (S)-2-(1-(9H-purin-6-ylamino)propyl)-5-fluoro-3-phenylquinazolin-4(3H)-one, compositions thereof, methods for their preparation, and methods for their use are also disclosed.

The present invention provides the new use of composition comprising at least one inhibitor of dipeptidyl peptidase IV (DPP-IV) for increasing migration and homing of haematopoetic progenitor cells in stem cell transplanted recipients, wherein said haematopoetic stem and/or progenitor cells had been treated in vitro with an engraftment enhancing compound, specifically with a prostacyclin analogue and a cAMP enhancer before transplantation.

The disclosure provides antibodies that are useful for, among other things, inhibiting terminal complement (e.g., the assembly and/or activity of the C5b-9 TCC) and C5a anaphylatoxin-mediated inflammation and, thus, treating complement-associated disorders. The antibodies have a number of improved properties relative to eculizumab, including, e.g., increased serum half-life in a human.

The present invention relates to a method for selecting an immunomodulatory kit, selected for an individual patient, for use in the treatment of patients suffering from myeloid leukemias. Different kits are available for selection and ex vivo testing which are composed of substances that have different immunomodulatory effects on leukemia cells. Each kit particularly contains GM-CSF and one (or two) more substances, selected from PICIBANIL, PGE.sub.1, PGE.sub.2, CALCIMYCIN and TNFα, as well as pharmaceutically acceptable adjuvants. The clinical aim is to modify, once the individually selected immunomodulatory kits were administered, blast cells in the body of the patient such that they turn into a “vaccine” which is able to activate the immunoreactive cells (of the patient or of the stem cell donor) in the body against blast cells.

The invention relates to compounds of Formula (I)

##STR00001##

wherein n, X, R.sup.1 and R.sup.2 are as described in the description; to pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof, and to the use of such compounds as medicaments, especially as modulators of the CXCR3 receptor.

The invention relates to compounds of Formula (I)

##STR00001##

wherein R.sup.1 and R.sup.2 are as described in the description; to pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof, and to the use of such compounds as medicaments, especially as modulators of the CXCR3 receptor.
