NOVEL PEPTIDES AND COMBINATION OF PEPTIDES FOR USE IN IMMUNOTHERAPY AGAINST PANCREATIC CANCER AND OTHER CANCERS

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.

Chemically Induced Association and Dissociation of Therapeutic FC Compositions and Chemically Induced Dimerization of T Cell Engager with Human Serum Albumin

The present disclosure provides a system that enables precise temporal control of the serum half-life a therapeutic moiety by inducing the association or disassociation of the therapeutic moiety with an Fc domain by a small molecule. The present disclosure also provides a system that enables precise control of the serum half- life a T cell engager domain by incorporating a chemically induced dimerizer (CID). One half of the CID is fused to a T cell engager, and the other half of the CID is fused to a HSA binding domain. Addition or removal of a small molecule induces association or dissociation of the T cell engager with HSA, thereby enabling precise temporal control of the serum half-life the T cell engager.
