Augmenting or stimulating an immune response, to tumor endothelial cells, by: a) obtaining a tumor endothelial antigen or composition of antigens; b) administering said tumor endothelial antigen or composition of antigens in an immunogenic manner to a host; and c) providing a probiotic and/or prebiotic mixture to said host being immunized.

Adjuvants acting at the level of antigen presentation useful for stimulation of specific immunity against tumor endothelial cells. In one embodiment the invention teaches the use of activation of specific antigen presenting cell programs to selectively induce cytotoxic T cells and antibodies with complement activating ability while not evoking antigenic responses that potentially stimulate angiogenesis or growth of tumor endothelial cells. Specifically, the invention teaches selection and use of adjuvants that inhibit suppressive dendritic cell produced factors, surface bound and soluble, while stimulating activatory cytokines. Adjuvant means include innate activatory molecules, gene silencing means, alarmins, and other stimulatory means resembling “danger” signals.

The present invention relates to monoclonal antibodies and antigen-binding fragments thereof that bind to human β-klotho, and pharmaceutical compositions and methods of treatment comprising the same.

The present invention relates to monoclonal antibodies and antigen-binding fragments thereof that bind to human β-klotho, and pharmaceutical compositions and methods of treatment comprising the same.

Chimeric antigen receptors (CARs) and CAR-expressing T cells are provided that can specifically target cells that express an elevated level of a target antigen. Likewise, methods for specifically targeting cells that express elevated levels of antigen (e.g., cancer cells) with CAR T-cell therapies are provided.

Provided are compositions useful as therapeutic vaccines (e.g., cancer vaccines), and methods of producing such compositions. The compositions disclosed herein generally employ a stress protein and at least one synthetic peptide, which may be a phosphopeptide or phosphopeptide mimetic, comprising a cancer-specific mutation present in a patient's cancer.
