Patent number: 11975955Abstract: The various embodiments described herein generally relate to an autonomous material transport vehicle, and systems and methods for operating an autonomous material transport vehicle. The autonomous material transport vehicle comprises: a sensing system operable to monitor an environment of the vehicle; a drive system for operating the vehicle; a processor operable to: receive a location of a load; initiate the drive system to navigate the vehicle to the location; following initiation of the drive system, operate the sensing system to monitor for one or more objects within a detection range; and in response to the sensing system detecting the one or more objects within the detection range, determine whether the load is within the detection range; and when the load is within the detection range, operate the drive system to position the vehicle for transporting the load, otherwise, determine a collision avoidance operation to avoid the one or more objects.Type: GrantFiled: April 6, 2023Date of Patent: May 7, 2024Assignee: CLEARPATH ROBOTICS INC.Inventors: Nolan Lunscher, Enrique Fernandez Perdomo, James Servos, Ryan Christopher Gariepy

Publication number: 20240131152Abstract: This invention describes ways of obtaining nano-particulated adjuvants formed by different synthetic variants of GM3 ganglioside. Depending on the fine structure of the fatty acid in the ceramide of the synthetic GM3, said adjuvants are able to stimulate specifically and in a specialized way the humoral or cellular immune response against accompanying antigens. Particularly, this invention provides immunogenic vaccine compositions that comprise peptides, polypeptides or proteins and the aforementioned nanoparticles, which are formed through the dispersion of hydrophobic proteins of the outer membrane complex (OMC) of Neisseria meningitidis in solutions containing fully synthetic variants of the GM3 ganglioside.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 2, 2023Publication date: April 25, 2024Inventors: Luis Enrique Fernández Molina, Belinda Sánchez Ramírez, Audry Fernández Gómez, Gretchen Bergado Báez, Circe Mesa Pardillo, Lisset Chao García, Narjara González Suárez, Dayana Pérez Martínez, Diana Rosa Hernández Fernández, Mabel Cruz Rodríguez, Ángel Alexis Manso Vargas, Vicente Guillermo Verez Bencomo, Blanca Idelmis Tolón Murguía, Miguel Antonio López López, Jesús Arturo Junco Barranco

Patent number: 11926654Abstract: The present invention describes fusion proteins based on cytokines, called bi-cytokines (BC), specifically formed by the binding of an IL2 agonist mutein with a type I interferon (IFN), linked by an Fc region of a mutant human IgG1 and a connector peptide. The combination of an IL2 agonist mutein and a type I IFN in the structure of the bi-cytokines gives surprising immunoregulatory properties to these molecules and a superior therapeutic effect than that of parental cytokines, or their combination, which makes them attractive and novel molecules for the treatment of cancer. Pharmaceutical compositions comprising as an active ingredient the fusion proteins object of this patent are also described.Type: GrantFiled: March 5, 2019Date of Patent: March 12, 2024Assignee: CENTRO DE INMUNOLOGIA MOLECULARInventors: Tays Hernández García, Maura Lisett Rábade Chediak, Kalet León Monzón, Circe Mesa Pardillo, Luis Enrique Fernández Molina, Giselle Hevia Hernández

Publication number: 20240033302Abstract: The present invention describes a pharmaceutical composition whose active ingredient includes conjugates of membrane vesicles of Neisseria meningitidis and the GM3 ganglioside in a conjugation ratio in excess of proteins, has particular characteristics of size, surface charge and a morphology associated with nano-particulate systems that give it advantageous properties as an immunomodulator, because it induces a convenient and significant reduction of myeloid-derived suppressor cells that has an impact on the response of T lymphocytes and on the survival of patients with tumors. The invention further discloses the use of the pharmaceutical composition disclosed in the treatment of cancer, particularly those cancers where the myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSCs) are high; as well as a method of treatment with said composition in cancer patients and a method to select those who will receive said treatment.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 17, 2023Publication date: February 1, 2024Inventors: Circe Mesa Pardillo, Liliana Oliver Rios, Rydell Alvarez Arzola, Vladimir Pena Sanchez, Luis Enrique Fernández Molina, Anet Valdés Zayas, Maura Lisett Rábade Chediak, Lena Aguiar Garcia, Lourdes Hernández de La Rosa, Audry Fernández Gómez, Leslie Pérez Ruiz, Camilo Rodriguez Rodriguez, Elias Antonio Gracia Medina, Maria Caridad Rubio Hernández, Orlando Valdés Guerrero, Idelmis Curbelo Haredia
