Abstract:
The use of an ScFv Ab (ScFv Ab) capable of recognizing a disease associated molecule (DAM) in the manufacture of a medicament for the prevention and/or treatment of a disease condition associated with a DAM is described. The ScFv Ab has therapeutic, diagnostic and prognostic applications.
Abstract:
A vector comprising a nucleotide sequence of interest (“NOI”) encoding a product of interest (“POI”) is described. The NOI and/or the POI is capable of recognizing a tumor, such that in use the vector is capable of delivering the NOI and/or the POI to the tumor.
Abstract:
Disclosed and claimed are methods for treating or preventing neurodegenerative diseases, conditions or maladies or symptoms or physiology associated therewith, such as treating or preventing Parkinson's disease or symptoms or physiology associated therewith such as motor deficits or nigrostriatal degeneration; or, for inducing nigrostriatal regeneration. Advantageously, the methods involve administering a lentiviral vector that expresses GDNF, such as human GDNF, or a variant, homolog, analog or derivative thereof.
Abstract:
Retroviral vector production systems for producing lentivirus-based vector particles which are capable of infecting and transducing non-dividing target cells, wherein one or more of the auxiliary genes such as vpr, vif, tat, and nef in the case of HIV-1 are absent from the system. The systems and resulting retrovirus vector particles have improved safety over existing systems and vectors.
Abstract:
Retroviral vector particles capable of infecting and transducing non-dividing mammalian target cells, which vector particles may be based on letiviruses such as HIV and which have an RNA genome constructed so as to provide in the DNA provirus a non-lentiviral expression control element in the 5′LTR of the provirus.
Abstract:
A method of treating or preventing disease, said method comprising administering to a subject, simultaneously, sequentially or separately, an antigen and a chemotherapeutic agent or agents comprising the steps of: administering the chemotherapeutic agent or agents, and administering an antigen up to 6 weeks after the chemotherapeutic agent.

Abstract:
Provided is a method of treating motor neuron disease using a lentiviral vector system to transduce a target site, wherein the vector system is or comprises at least part of a rabies G envelope protein or a mutant, variant, homologue or fragment thereof, and a nucleotide of interest (NOI), and wherein the target site is at least part of the central nervous system.
