Abstract: The present invention relates to RNA therapy and, in particular, decreasing immunogenicity of RNA. Specifically, the present invention provides methods for decreasing immunogenicity of RNA, said methods comprising modifying the nucleotide sequence of the RNA by reducing the uridine (U) content, wherein said reduction of the U content comprises an elimination of U nucleosides from the nucleotide sequence of the RNA and/or a substitution of U nucleosides by nucleosides other than U in the nucleotide sequence of the RNA. Using RNA having decreased immunogenicity allows administration of RNA as a drug to a subject, e.g. in order to obtain expression of a pharmaceutically active peptide or protein, without eliciting an immune response which would interfere with therapeutic effectiveness of the RNA or induce adverse effects in the subject.

Abstract: The present invention provides molecules that mimic antigenic determinants of the integral transmembrane protein claudin 18.2 (CLDN18.2). These molecules compete with CLDN18.2 for binding to a CLDN18.2 binding domain, e.g. a CLDN18.2 binding domain of an antibody, and are capable of detecting antibodies against CLDN18.2. The mimotopes of the invention may be used to generate or inhibit immune responses in animals and preferably humans. Furthermore, they can be used for purposes of detecting agents comprising a CLDN18.2 binding domain in biological samples as well as for purifying agents comprising a CLDN18.2 binding domain.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a patient-specific tumor treatment targeting individual expression patterns of tumor antigens, in particular shared tumor antigens, and individual tumor mutations. In one aspect, the present invention relates to a method for preventing or treating cancer in a patient comprising the steps of: (i) inducing a first immune response against one or more tumor antigens in the patient, and (ii) inducing a second immune response against one or more tumor antigens in the patient wherein the second immune response is specific for cancer specific somatic mutations present in cancer cells of the patient.

Abstract: The present invention relates to stabilization of RNA, in particular mRNA, and an increase in mRNA translation. The present invention particularly relates to a modification of RNA, in particular in vitro-transcribed RNA, resulting in increased transcript stability and/or translation efficiency. According to the invention, it was demonstrated that certain sequences in the 3′-untranslated region (UTR) of an RNA molecule improve stability and translation efficiency.
