摘要:
The inventors provide a new therapeutic strategy to treat cancers expressing embryonic antigens. Accordingly, the present invention relates to a method of treating a subject suffering from a cancer comprising a step of administration simultaneously, separately or sequentially to said subject a therapeutically amount of i) a population of derived engineered fetal stem cells carrying cancer associated fetal neo-antigen and ii) a compound selected from a group which activates immune response, as a combined preparation.
摘要:
The present embodiments provide compositions and methods related to novel recombinant protein immunogens, comprising specific portions of alpha helical domains (aHD) and proline rich regions (PRD) of pneumococcal surface protein A (PspA), which portions are linked to provide aHD-PRD constructs. The aHD and PRD proteins constituting the aHD-PRD constructs are selected to maximize cross-reactivity and provide protection against a broad spectrum of pneumococcal serotypes. Immunogenic compositions, including vaccines, comprising at least one aHD PRD construct may also include a non-linked aHD portion. Also provided are recombinant nucleic acid molecules that encode aHD-PRD constructs, vectors and recombinant host cells containing such molecules, aHD-PRD expression products, use of such nucleic acid molecules to express aHD-PRD constructs by recombinant techniques, and use of the expression products to elicit an immune or protective response against pneumococcal disease in a suitable host.
摘要:
Provided herein are methods for treating, preventing, and/or managing hematological cancers by administering a combination therapy as described herein that optionally includes an immunomodulatory compound as described herein and a checkpoint inhibitor as described herein and a secondary active agent as described herein.
摘要:
Provided are compositions useful as therapeutic vaccines (e.g., cancer vaccines), and methods of producing such compositions. The compositions disclosed herein generally employ a stress protein and at least one synthetic peptide, which may be a phosphopeptide or phosphopeptide mimetic, comprising a cancer-specific mutation present in a patient's cancer.
摘要:
Encompassed are methods of potentiating anti-tumor immunity comprising administering an RAR agonist to a patient having a tumor in combination with at least one other treatment and methods of suppressing a Th17 response in a patient comprising administering an RAR agonist in combination with at least one other treatment.
摘要:
A method is presented for treating herpes simplex virus (HSV) infection comprising: (a) locally administering a substance that induces a delayed type hypersensitivity (DTH) response to a patient at a site of an HSV lesion to induce a DTH response at the site of the lesion during one or more outbreaks of the HSV infection.
摘要:
Therapeutic and diagnostic methods are provided, which methods relate to the induction of expression of calreticulin on phagocytic cells. Specifically, the methods relate to macrophage-mediated programmed cell removal (PrCR), the methods comprising increasing PrCR by contacting a phagocytic cell with a toll-like receptor (TLR) agonist; or down-regulating PrCR by contacting a phagocytic cell with an inhibitor of Bruton's tyrosine kinase (BTK). In some embodiments, an activator of TLR signaling or a BTK agonist is provided in combination with CD47 blockade.
摘要:
Compounds that modulate the oxidoreductase enzyme indoleamine 2,3- dioxygenase, and compositions containing the compounds, are described herein. The use of such compounds and compositions for the treatment and/or prevention of a diverse array of diseases, disorders and conditions, including cancer- and immune -related disorders, that are mediated by indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase is also provided.
