摘要:
The present invention relates to multi-functional proteins which comprise (i) a signal peptide, (ii) a target specific recognition domain, (iii) a linker region, connecting domain (ii) and domain (iv) which comprises a specific modified hinge region of the human CD8 alpha-chain, and (iv) an effector domain. The present invention furthermore relates to nucleic acids encoding the proteins, expression constructs for expressing the protein in a host cell and host cells. The proteins of the invention are chimeric antigen receptors with an optimized linker or hinge region that are suitable for generating target-specific effector cells, for use as a medicament, in particular in the treatment of cancer and in adoptive, target-cell specific immunotherapy.
摘要:
The present invention relates to the use of the drug valproic acid and derivatives thereof as inhibitors of enzymes having histone deacetylase for the sensitizing treatment of human cancers in combination with established therapeutic principles. The invention also relates to the use of those compounds for the treatment of tumor metastasis and minimal residual disease. The invention includes the manufacture of a clinically used substance for the treatment of human cancers.
摘要:
The present invention relates to the use of interleukin-15 (IL-15) as selectable marker for gene transfer, preferably of at least one gene of therapeutic interest, into a mammalian cell or cell line, in particular a human cell or cell line. The present invention furthermore relates to transgenic mammalian cells or cell lines expressing IL-15 as selectable marker and co-expressing at least one protein of interest encoded by at least one gene of interest, which is preferably a protein of therapeutic interest. The present invention is in particular suitable for chimeric antigen receptors (CARs) as the gene or protein of interest and their expression in lymphocytes. The transgenic mammalian cells and cell lines are furthermore suitable for use as a medicament, in particular in the treatment of cancer and in immunotherapy, such as adoptive, target-cell specific immunotherapy.

摘要:
The invention pertains to a nucleic acid transfer system including a translocation domain of toxins, especially of diphtheria toxin suitable for targeting a nucleic acid, e.g. a gene, to a specific cell, and obtaining expression of said nucleic acid. The nucleic acid transfer system of the invention comprises a multidomain protein component and a nucleic acid component. Furthermore, the present invention relates to the multidomain protein, a nucleic acid encoding said protein, suitable amplification and expression systems for said nucleic acid, and processes for the preparation and uses of the above subject matters.
