    摘要: The present disclosure relates to a combined pharmaceutical composition, adapted for simultaneous, separate, or sequential administration for treating cancer in a subject comprising (a) a conjugate comprising (i) a polypeptide comprising the amino acid sequence of interleukin 15 or derivatives thereof, and ii) a polypeptide comprising the amino acid sequence of the sushi domain of IL-15Ra or derivatives thereof; a polynucleotide coding therefore, or a vector comprising such a polynucleotide; and (b) an antibody antagonizing an immune pathway implicated in the inhibition of T cell activation, or a fragment thereof, a polynucleotide coding therefore, or a vector comprising such a polynucleotide.

    摘要: The present inventors identified for the first time a germline genomic alteration that accounts for familial myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPN) and myeloid malignancies. More precisely, they identified a 700 kb germline duplication that predisposes patients to essential thrombocythemia (ET) with a high frequency of evolution to myelofibrosis (MF) secondary myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) or acute myeloid leukemia (AML). Two out of the 6 duplicated genes (namely ATG2B and GSKIP) have been shown to be overexpressed in hematopoietic progenitors, and this overexpression cooperates with classical mutations in JAK2, MPL and CALR to generate the MPN phenotype. The presence of the 700 kb germline duplication is thus of poor prognosis for a MPN patient. The present invention discloses a method for detecting a predisposition of developing a MPN, as well as a prognostic method for assessing the probability that an ET-suffering patient will develop a myelofibrosis a secondary MDS or an AML. It also discloses a treating method for delaying MPN worsening, said treating method involving the inhibition of the ATG2B and GSKIP duplicated genes.
