  • Patent number: 11571459
    Abstract: Disclosed are surprising new methods and kits for treating patients, particularly cancer patients, using bavituximab in combination therapies with immuno-oncology (IO) agents such as checkpoint inhibitor antibodies. The methods and kits are based on the surprising finding that human patients treated with bavituximab and checkpoint inhibitor antibodies have a statistically significant prolonged survival in controlled studies.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: April 2, 2018
    Date of Patent: February 7, 2023
    Assignee: ONCXERNA THERAPEUTICS, INC.
    Inventors: Joseph S. Shan, Nikoletta L. Kallinteris, Min Tang, F. Andrew Dorr

  • Patent number: 6995146
    Abstract: Antisense oligonucleotides are provided which are complementary to and hybridizable with at least a portion of HCV RNA and which are capable of inhibiting the function of the HCV RNA. These oligonucleotides can be administered to inhibit the activity of Hepatitis C virus in vivo or in vitro. These compounds can be used either prophylactically or therapeutically to reduce the severity of diseases associated with Hepatitis C virus, and for diagnosis and detection of HCV and HCV-associated diseases. Methods of using these compounds are also disclosed.

  • Publication number: 20040072786
    Abstract: Compositions and are provided which are targeted to nucleic acids methods are provided for the modulation of ras expression. Oligonucleotides encoding human ras. Oligonucleotides specifically hybridizable with mRNA encoding human H-ras, Ki-ras and N-ras are provided. Such oligonucleotides can be used for therapeutics and diagnostics as well as for research purposes. Methods are also disclosed for modulating ras gene expression in cells and tissues using the oligonucleotides provided, and for specific modulation of expression of activated ras. Methods for diagnosis, detection and treatment of conditions, or particular cancers, associated with ras are also disclosed.
