    Abstract: The present invention relates to particles comprising RNA, in which the RNA is associated with a cationic polymer or lipid or with both a cationic polymer and lipid, wherein the RNA comprises a cytotoxic nucleotide or cytotoxic nucleotide analog and/or the RNA is covalently attached to a cytotoxin, pharmaceutical compositions containing said particles and pharmaceutical uses of the particles and pharmaceutical compositions. The particles of the present invention are particularly useful as an immunostimulating medicament capable to block proliferation or induce death in dividing cells such as tumor cells.

    Abstract: A method is provided for identifying a number of variants of concern of a reference disease associated immunogen. The method uses a language model to perform inference on data representing each of a plurality of variants and data representing the reference immunogen. For each of the plurality of variants and the reference immunogen, a characteristic vector is derived from an output feature map of a hidden layer of the language model. For each of the plurality of variants, a measure of distance is generated for the variant that includes calculating a measure of distance between the characteristic vector of the variant and the characteristic vector of the reference immunogen. A semantic change score is calculated for each variant based on the generated measure of distance for that variant. A variant of the reference immunogen is selected based, at least in part, on the generated the semantic change scores.

    Abstract: The present invention provides compositions for the production of an antibody or functional fragment thereof directed against disialoganglioside-GD2. The compositions of the invention include polynucleotides encoding a heavy chain and/or a light chain variable domain that binds to GD2. The invention also provides an isolated antibody or functional fragment thereof and methods of treating or preventing a disease, such as cancer or tumor formation, wherein the antibody or functional fragment includes a variable heavy chain domain and a variable light chain domain that has an amino acid sequence provided herein. The invention further provides a conjugate of an antibody or functional fragment thereof conjugated or recombinantly fused to a diagnostic agent, detectable agent or therapeutic agent, and methods of treating, preventing or diagnosing a disease in a subject in need thereof.
