  • Publication number: 20220194984
    Abstract: A method of treating a patient who has glioblastoma and/or gastric cancer includes administering to said patient a composition containing a population of activated T cells that selectively recognize cells in the patient that aberrantly express a peptide. A pharmaceutical composition contains activated T cells that selectively recognize cells in a patient that aberrantly express a peptide, and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier, in which the T cells bind to the peptide in a complex with an WIC class I molecule, and the composition is for treating the patient who has glioblastoma and/or gastric cancer. A method of treating a patient who has glioblastoma and/or gastric cancer includes administering to said patient a composition comprising a peptide in the form of a pharmaceutically acceptable salt, thereby inducing a T-cell response to the glioblastoma and/or gastric cancer.

  • Publication number: 20220099964
    Abstract: Aspects of the disclosure relate to cleaning rotating sensors having a sensor housing with a sensor input surface. For instance, a first signal indicating that there is a contaminant on the sensor input surface may be received. In response to receiving the first signal, a second signal may be sent in order to cause one or more transducers to generate waves in order to attempt to remove the contaminant from the sensor input surface.

  • Publication number: 20220056411
    Abstract: A method of producing an engineered T cell population includes obtaining a cell population comprising a CD8+ T cell, isolating the CD8+ T cell from the obtained cell population, activating the isolated CD8+ T cell, introducing a nucleic acid encoding a T cell receptor (TCR) binding to an antigen in a complex with an MHC molecule into the activated CD8+ T cell, and expanding the introduced CD8+ T cell to obtain the engineered T cell population.
