There is described herein, a method for inducing Tc22 lineage T cells from a population of CD8+ T cells, the method comprising: a) providing a population of CD8+ T cells; b) activating the population; and c) culturing or contacting the population of CD8+ T cells with Coenzyme A.

Disclosed herein are methods of treating a subject with an estrogen receptor-positive (ER+) breast cancer comprising obtaining a sample of the breast cancer from the subject; determining a level of E-cadherin in the sample is reduced compared to a control; and administering a therapeutically effective amount of an IGF1R pathway inhibitor and an endocrine therapeutic. Also disclosed herein are methods to treat a cancer in a subject comprising administering a therapeutically effective amount of an IGF1R pathway inhibitor and an E-cadherin inhibitor. Also disclosed are methods to predict the likelihood a subject with a breast cancer will respond therapeutically to a treatment comprising administering an IGF1R pathway inhibitor, the method comprising obtaining a sample of the cancer from the subject; and determining a level of E-cadherin in the sample.

The present disclosure provides pharmaceutical compositions for monoclonal antibodies, antibody-related products, therapeutic proteins, peptides and other biopharmaceuticals. The compositions provide initial and long term stability of the biopharmaceutical agent, rendering them suitable for parenteral, pulmonary, transdermal, topical, intradermal, intrascleral, intracorneal, ocular and other forms of delivery. The compositions and methods lead to higher yields in dilute solutions and reduce unwanted aggregation of the biopharmaceutical agent. The compositions and methods also allow for disaggregation of previously aggregated proteins and protection from aggregation upon dilution. Additionally, provided are non-aggregating antibody reagents for analytical immunoassays including ELISA methods. The invention provides compositions and methods for topical, enteral, parenteral, pulmonary and other forms of delivery of biologically active substances. Also provided is the transscleral, transcorneal or transocular delivery of high molecular weight, biologically active substances to a patient, with or without pulsed infrared (IR) light. The compositions may also incorporate nanotechnologies to formulate the active substances.
