Disclosed are compositions comprising an interferon-alpha binding protein and combined anti-retroviral therapy (cART). In some aspects, the interferon-alpha binding protein is B18R. In some aspects, the compositions further comprise a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier. Disclosed are methods of treating a subject with HIV associated neurogenerative disorder (HAND) comprising administering a therapeutically effective amount of B18R and cART. Disclosed are methods of reversing behavioral abnormalities in subjects having HAND comprising administering a therapeutically effective amount of B18R.

The present inventors have identified specific oncogenic pathways preferentially activated in BRAF-mutated-melanoma cells and a pathway pattern that predicts resistance of BRAF-mutated melanoma to BRAF/MEK inhibitors, providing novel clinical implications for melanoma therapy. In one embodiment, a method comprises (a) testing a sample oiBRAF-mutated melanoma cells isolated from a patient and measuring the expression levels of genes expressed in the following oncogenic pathways: TNFa, EGFR, IFNa, hypoxia, IFNy, STAT3 and Myc; (b) calculating a 7-pathway activation pattern based on the measured expression levels of step (a); and (c) identifying the patient's resistance level to BRAF/MEK inhibitor treatment based on comparison of the calculated 7-pathway activation pattern to a reference.

The invention provides methods and compositions for the diagnosis, prognosis, and/or treatment response characterization of individuals suffering from systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) using single cell network profiling.

The present invention relates to combination therapies useful for the treatment of cancer. In particular, the invention relates to a therapeutic combination which comprises a PD-1 antagonist, an ATR inhibitor and a platinating agent.

Provided herein are compositions and methods of using Seneca Valley Virus (SW), or a derivative thereof, combined with an IFN-I inhibitor for treating a cancer in a subject. The disclosed methods particularly rely upon the expression level of an ANTXR1 and the expression level of IFN-I in the cancer from the subject. Also provided herein are methods for predicting the efficacy of an SW treatment and a kit for determining the same.

The present invention relates to prediction and early diagnosis of acute kidney injury (AKI). The method provides biomarkers that correlate with a patient's risk of developing AKI, or with the presence of early stage AKI. The invention also provides devices and kits for predicting the risk of occurrence of AKI and for diagnosing AKI.

Disclosed herein are methods that employ the use of one or more biomarkers for the treatment of SARS-CoV-2 infected individuals (COVID-19 patients). The methods may employ detection and measurement of one or more cytokines, the measurement of which may be used to treat COVID-19 patients with one or more immunomodulatory therapies.
