Methods of Treating Glioblastoma
In certain embodiments, this disclosure relates to conjugates comprising GM-CSF and IL-7 and uses related thereto, e.g., enhancing the adaptive immune system. Typically, the GM-CSF and IL-7 are connected by a polymer linker, e.g., polypeptide. In certain embodiments, the disclosure relates to nucleic acids encoding these polypeptide conjugates, vectors comprising nucleic acid encoding polypeptide conjugates, and protein expression systems comprising these vectors such as infectious viral particles and host cells comprising such nucleic acids.
NOVEL INTERLEUKIN-15 (IL-15) FUSION PROTEINS AND USES THEREOF
The present disclosure provides novel and improved IL-15 fusion proteins for use in the treatment of cancer and other disorders. In various embodiments, the fusion proteins of the invention have two functional domains: an IL-15/IL-15RαSushi domain (also referred to herein as an “IL-15/IL-15RαSushi complex”) and an antibody domain, each of which can take different forms, and configured such that the IL-15 is fused to the C-terminal of the antibody domain and co-expressed and non-covalently complexed with IL-15RαSushi. Importantly, the fusions proteins of the present invention address several of the limitations observed with the IL-15 therapeutics evaluated to date; specifically, the fusion proteins demonstrate extended the half-life of IL-15 in vivo, and demonstrate optimized preclinical activity compared to rIL-15 or related cytokine therapeutics.
GENETICALLY MODIFIED NATURAL KILLER CELLS AND METHODS OF USE THEREOF
This disclosure describes genetically engineered natural killer (NK) cells, pharmaceutical compositions that include these NK cells, and methods of making and using these NK cells.
IL12 RECEPTOR AGONISTS AND METHODS OF USE THEREOF
The present disclosure relates to IL12 receptor agonists with improved therapeutic profiles.
TREATMENT METHODS
Methods and compositions for identifying tumor antigens of human lymphocytes, and for treating subjects having cancer, are provided herein.
TREATMENT METHODS
Methods and compositions for identifying tumor antigens of human lymphocytes, and for treating subjects having cancer, are provided herein.
IL-15 COMPOSITIONS AND METHODS OF USE THEREOF
Provided are compositions comprising an activatable proprotein comprising a first IL-15 or a variant thereof and a second IL-15Rα or variant thereof fused to a masking moiety comprising an antibody Fc region, and methods of using the same for cancer immunotherapy and other therapies.
MODIFIED IMMUNOGLOBINS
This disclosure relates to modified immunoglobulins.
ANTIBODIES TARGETING, AND OTHER MODULATORS OF, THE CD276 ANTIGEN, AND USES THEREOF
The invention pertains to antibodies or other antigen binding proteins targeting the CD276 antigen, also known as B7-H3. The invention provides an improved set of antibodies which bind at new positions within the CD276 antigen and are of particular use as therapeutics in the treatment of CD276 positive cancer. Further the invention provides antibody conjugate and bispecific antibodies which were developed on basis of the novel anti-CD276 antibodies of the invention. Furthermore, the invention discloses the therapeutic use of the antibodies and other modulators in the treatment of CD276 positive cancer. Finally, the nucleic acid constructs encoding the molecules of the invention, recombinant cells expressing them, as well as particular uses and methods are provided.
IMMUNOCYTOKINE COMPRISING HETERODYMERIC PROTEIN COMPLEX BASED ON IL-15/IL-15RA
The present invention relates to an immunocytokine comprising an heterodimeric protein complex based on IL-15/IL-15Rα, and to use thereof as a therapeutic agent, in particular as an agent for the treatment of cancer and an autoimmune disease. The present invention further relates to an immunocytokine comprising a heterodimeric protein complex based on an IL-15/IL-15Rα and an immunomodulatory antibody, and to use thereof as a therapeutic agent, in particular as an agent for the treatment of cancer and an autoimmune disease.
