The present invention is directed to a pharmaceutical composition including (e.g. for use as an adjuvant) a polymeric carrier cargo complex, comprising as a carrier a polymeric carrier formed by disulfide-crosslinked cationic components; and as a cargo at least one nucleic acid molecule, and at least one antigen that is selected from an antigen from a pathogen associated with infectious disease; an antigen associated with allergy or allergic disease; an antigen associated with autoimmune disease; or an antigen associated with a cancer or tumour disease, or in each case a fragment, variant and/or derivative of said antigen. The pharmaceutical composition allows for efficient induction of an adaptive immune response directed against said antigen. The present invention furthermore provides kits, as well as the use of the pharmaceutical composition or the kit as a vaccine, particularly in the treatment of infectious diseases, allergies, autoimmune diseases and tumour or cancer diseases.

Disclosed herein are methods and compositions for associating a genetic variant with intraretinal fluid. Also disclosed herein are methods and compositions for associating a genetic variant with visual acuity, anatomic outcomes or treatment frequency.

Methods and compositions for treating cancer (e.g., ovarian, fallopian tube, uterine, cervical, vaginal, vulvar, or peritoneal cancer) are disclosed. The methods include intermittent administration of a glucocorticoid receptor modulator (GRM), such as a non-steroidal GRM (e.g., relacorilant), which may be orally administered, along with a cancer chemotherapy agent to the patient. The patient may have received bevacizumab prior to receiving such intermittent GRM plus chemotherapy treatment.

The GRM may be administered: at intervals separated by at least one day without GRM administration; by a schedule linked to the cancer chemotherapy schedule (e.g., a weekly chemotherapy regimen); the day of, or the day before, or the day after, chemotherapy administration; by combinations thereof; and/or on other days.

Ovarian cancer patients receiving intermittent relacorilant administration along with nab-paclitaxel administration had improved overall survival, progression free survival, duration of response, and other benefits as compared to patients not receiving relacorilant while receiving nab-paclitaxel.

The present invention provides a chimeric cytokine receptor (CCR) comprising: (i) an exodomain which binds to a ligand selected from a tumour secreted factor, a chemokine and a cell-surface antigen; and (ii) a cytokine receptor endodomain.

The present invention provides a chimeric cytokine receptor (CCR) comprising: (i) an exodomain which binds to a ligand selected from a tumour secreted factor, a chemokinc and a cell-surface antigen; and (ii) a cytokine receptor cndodomain.

The disclosure relates to compositions and methods for treating disease. More particularly, the disclosure relates to stabilized chimeric synthetic proteins and their use for treating cancer.

Disclosed herein are non-viral methods to ablate FOXP1 in T cells while effectively expressing chimeric receptors. Therefore, disclosed herein is a chimeric cell expressing a chimeric receptor, wherein the chimeric receptor is encoded by a transgene, and wherein the transgene is inserted in the genome of the cell at a location that disrupts expression or activity of an endogenous FOXP1 protein.

The present invention provides a combination preparation for inducing a specific immune response to an antigenic peptide, which contains (I) the antigenic peptide, and (II) an expression vector encoding a chimeric hepatitis B virus core antigen polypeptide, into which the antigenic peptide has been inserted or added, wherein said antigenic peptide is inserted in a region of amino acid residues 74-87 or 130-138 of the hepatitis B virus core antigen polypeptide, or added to the N-terminal or C-terminal of the hepatitis B virus core antigen polypeptide, wherein the antigenic peptide of (I) and the expression vector of (II) are substantially simultaneously administered to a subject.

An antitumor pharmaceutical combination includes (i) a compound ABX196 and (ii) at least one chemotherapeutic agent and/or at least one immunotherapeutic agent, for use in the treatment of cancer.

The present invention relates to a pharmaceutical composition comprising, as an active ingredient, a fusion protein in which a tissue-penetrating peptide is fused to an anti-vascular endothelial growth factor agent, methods of treating eye diseases with the pharmaceutical composition, and a method for preparing an anti-VEGF agent with an improved efficacy and ability to overcome resistance.
