Abstract:
The present disclosure relates to the use MNK-specific inhibitors to inhibit immunosuppression components, such as immune checkpoint proteins PD-1, PD-L1, LAG3, and/or immunosuppressive cytokines, such as IL-10, in order to inhibit or release immune suppression in certain diseases, such as cancer and infectious disease.
Abstract:
The present disclosure relates to genetically modified T cells comprising a transgene encoding an engineered antigen specific receptor, wherein expression of an endogenous gene selected from MNK1, MNK2, or both are inhibited in the genetically modified T cell in order to enhance central memory T cell subsets in cellular immunotherapy compositions.

Abstract:
The present disclosure provides compositions and methods for improving an antitumor response against non-inflamed solid tumors. Methods of this disclosure include use of an eIF4A inhibitor to promote infiltration of antitumor lymphocytes into a non inflamed solid tumor. Methods of treating cancer associated with a non-inflamed solid tumor are also provided.

Abstract:
The present disclosure relates to methods for ameliorating or treating an eIF4A dependent condition or disease in a subject in need thereof. The methods of the disclosure comprise administering to the subject a therapeutically effective amount of at least one eukaryotic translation initiation factor 4A (eIF4A) inhibitor and a therapeutically effective amount of at least one cyclin-dependent kinase (CDK) inhibitor.
