    摘要: Identification of effective targets alleviating the programmed cell removal (PrCR) of tumor cells by macrophages is of very high interest. The present inventors have identified that the cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor p21 protein is a strong regulator of the macrophage-mediated PrCR. Also, they showed that the adoptive transfer of p21 overexpressing monocytes induces macrophage PrCR and transition from an anti-inflammatory to a pro-inflammatory phenotype in vivo, delays cancer progression and increases significantly the overall survival of mice engrafted with cancer cells. The present invention therefore concerns therapeutic compositions comprising monocytes that over-express the cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor p21 protein, and their use for treating mammals suffering from cancer, especially leukemia.

    摘要: The present invention relates to the combined use of a neuropilin-1 (Nrp-1) neutralizing agent and of a programmed cell death-1 (PD-1) neutralizing agent for killing cancer cells, typically for treating cancer, as well as to corresponding pharmaceutical compositions and kits, and to corresponding diagnostic and therapeutic methods. The invention further relates to in vitro, ex vivo and in vivo methods for detecting CD8+ TILs capable of recognizing cancer cells, for predicting the response of a subject to anti-PD-1 treatment of cancer, and for identifying a subject who responds therapeutically to a treatment of cancer with an antibody combination therapy comprising anti-Nrp-1 and anti-PD-1 antibodies.

    摘要: The present invention relates to the fields of medicine and cancer treatment. The invention more specifically relates to new compounds which are typically for use as a medicament. In particular, the invention relates to the use of these new compounds for increasing the presentation, typically the production and presentation, of Pioneer Translation Products (PTPs)-derived antigens by cancer cells in a subject, and inducing or stimulating an immune response in the subject. The present disclosure also relates to uses of such compounds, in particular to prepare a pharmaceutical composition and/or to allow or improve the efficiency of a cancer therapy in a subject in need thereof. The invention also discloses methods for preventing or treating cancer, cancer metastasis and/or cancer recurrence in a subject. The present invention in addition provides kits suitable for preparing a composition according to the present invention and/or for implementing the herein described methods.
