摘要:
Disclosed herein are materials and methods for treating cancer. In particular, compositions for stimulating tumor immunity through modulation of MFG-E8 are provided.
摘要:
The present invention is directed to a method of inhibiting CDld activation by administering a composition containing a moiety that blocks CDld activation. Compositions of the invention are useful for the attenuation of CDld-restricted immune responses, including treatment of skin disorders due to hyperactive immune responses (e.g., contact hypersensitivity), for systemic administration to attenuate ongoing immune responses, and to provide hypoallergenic cosmetic products including pharmaceutical, cosmetic, and skin care compositions. Preferably, these compositions are in a form intended for topical administration.

摘要:
The present invention is directed to immune adjuvants containing IAP inhibitors, including Smac mimetics. The invention further provides pharmaceutical compositions and vaccines containing an IAP inhibitor and an antigen. Methods of enhancing an immune response by administration of an IAP inhibitor, methods of treating or preventing cancer, methods of treating or preventing infections, methods of treating autoimmune disorders, and methods of potentiating cytokine or antibody production are also provided.
摘要:
A method of altering the specific, systemic immune response of an individual to a target antigen by the co-administration of a cytokine an adhesion or accessory molecule and the target antigen. The target antigen may be a tumor cell, a tumor cell antigen, an infectious agent or other foreign antigen, or other antigens to which an enhanced systemic immune response is desirable. Alternatively, the antigen may be a non-foreign antigen when a suppression of a systemic immune response is desired. The resulting systemic immune response is specific for the target antigen.

The present invention comprises compositions, methods and devices for creating an infection-mimicking environment within a polymer scaffold to stimulate antigen-specific dendritic cell activation. Devices of the present invention are used to provide protective immunity to subjects against infection and cancer.
摘要:
Combination therapies comprising antibody molecules that specifically bind to PD-1 disclosed. The combination therapies can be used to treat or prevent cancerous or infectious conditions and disorders.
