摘要:
Methods for treating mammals with cancer using molecules that have an IL-21 functional activity are described. The molecules having IL-21 functional activities include polypeptides that have homology to the human IL-21 polypeptide sequence and proteins fused to a polypeptide with IL-21 functional activity. The molecules can be used as a monotherapy or in combination with other known cancer therapeutics.

摘要:
Methods for treating cancer by co-administering a therapeutic monoclonal antibody with IL-21 are described. Exemplary monoclonal antibodies that can be used are rituximab, trastuzumab and anti-CTLA-4 antibodies. The enhanced antitumor of the combination therapy is particularly useful for patient populations that are recalcitrant to monoclonal therapy, relapse after treatment with monoclonal antibodies or where the enhanced IL-21 antitumor effect reduces toxicities associated with treatment using the monoclonal antibodies.
摘要:
An alarm system for detecting attempted theft of an article includes means incorporated in the article itself and arranged to transmit and to continuing transmitting an alarm signal when the article is removed from its original location. An example of the alarm system provides an audible alarm, or transmitted alarm, and is arranged to be operated when a thief removes or attempts to remove a car radio, cassette player, compact disc player or the like from a car. Unauthorized removal of the unit from a car is detected by the consequent breaking of an electrical circuit which may be the power supply connections to the radio from the car electrical system or may be the connections to the loudspeakers or the radio aerial.
摘要:
Semiconductor structures having a nanocrystalline core and corresponding nanocrystalline shell are described. In an example, a semiconductor structure includes an anisotropic nanocrystalline core composed of a first semiconductor material and having an aspect ratio between, but not including, 1.0 and 2.0. The semiconductor structure also includes a nanocrystalline shell composed of a second, different, semiconductor material at least partially surrounding the anisotropic nanocrystalline core.

摘要:
The present invention provides methods for use of IL-21 in combination with a tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) in treatment of diseases in which inhibition of phosphorylation via TK inhibition and modulation of immune function play a clinically beneficial role. These diseases include, but are not limited to, cancers, such as renal cell carcinoma and metastatic melanoma.
