摘要:
The invention relates to peptides which consist of amino acid sequences found in the NY-ESO-1 molecule, which bind to MHC-Class II molecules. These can be used alone, or in combination with other peptides.
摘要:
The invention provides methods for diagnosing cancer including breast cancer, based on the identification of certain breast cancer-associated polypeptides as antigens that elicit immune responses in breast cancer. The identified antigens can be utilized as markers for diagnosing breast cancer, and for following the course of treatment of breast cancer.
摘要:
The invention relates to newly identified cancer associated antigens, referred to as CT7, KOC-2 and KOC-3. The invention also relates to observations regarding known molecule KOC-1. It has been discovered that each of these molecules provokes antibodies when expressed by a subject. The ramifications of this observation are also a part of this invention.
摘要:
The invention relates to peptides which bind to MHC Class I and to MHC Class II molecules. These peptides are useful in different therapeutic and diagnostic contexts.
摘要:
The invention relates to the isolation of a nucleic acid molecule which encodes a cancer associated antigen. Also a part of the invention is the antigen itself, and the uses of the nucleic acid molecule and the antigen, and peptides derived from it.
摘要:
The invention involves the combination of Interleukin-12 with p53 derived peptides and an adjuvant, preferably QS-21. It is found that this combination provokes a surprisingly strong immune response. Further, in an accepted in vivo model, the use of compositions containing these three ingredients led to diamatic decreases in the growth of induced tumors, thus suggesting a therapeutic regime.
摘要:
The invention relates to the production of ganglioside specific antibodies. These antibodies are produced following immunization with lipopolysaccharide antigen of Campylobacter jejuni. The antibodies bind to monosialogangliosides, including GM2 and GM1.
摘要:
Various molecules associated with disorders such as colon cancer are disclosed. The invention also discloses diagnostic and therapeutic methods based upon these molecules.
