Abstract: The present invention relates to a lyophilized composition comprising killed cancer cells with substantially retained immunogenicity and morphology, an intracellular cryopreservative such as trehalose and an extracellular cryopreservative such as polyvinylpyrrolidone. The present invention also relates to a process for the preparation of said lyophilized composition. The lyophilized composition of the present invention can be used for cancer immunotherapy.

Abstract: This invention discloses the process for lyophilization of the treated cells which comprises the use of a solution containing Trehalose along with amphipathic polymer Polyvinylpyrrolidone. Further the invention discloses the process treating cancer cells, freezing, lyophilizing and reconstituting. Immunomodulator treated dead, but intact cancerous cells were recovered, which can subsequently be used for cancer immunotherapy.

Abstract: Cancer cells when treated with cisplatin, paclitaxel, gemcitabine, Mycobacterium w or combination there of shows altered protein profile. Thus altered protein profile has at least one protein commonly expressed or over expressed. The commonly expressed or over expressed protein induces immune response specific to cancer cells (homologue and hetrologus) of tissue/organ of origin. The immune response generated by administration of commonly expressed or over expressed antigen not reactive to normal cells and cancer cells or different tissue/organ of origin.

Abstract: The present invention relates to novel stable indole-3-carbinol derivatives of Formula-I and its pharmaceutical composition and biological activity. The present invention includes compositions and methods for the treatment and prevention of conditions associated with Inflammation.

Abstract: The present invention relates to increase in survival of mammals suffering from desmocollin 3 expressing cancers. Mycobacterium w is administered to mammals suffering from desmocollin-3 expressing cancers. The administration of Mycobacterium w results in control of tumor and improvement in survival. Mycobacterium w can also be used along with other therapeutic agent(s)/modalities as per the requirement. The squamous type of non small cell lung cancer is known to be desmocollin-3 expressing cancer. Other cancers also express desmocollin-3.

Abstract: The invention provides novel adjuvants and pharmaceutical composition comprising of an adjuvant alone. The invention also provides novel vaccine compositions comprising of an antigen and a novel adjuvant. The novel adjuvant as per present invention is farnesoid-X-receptor (FXR) antagonist. The invention also relates to an adjuvant for variety of antigens. The adjuvant improves antibody production specific to incorporated antigen. The adjuvant also induces cell mediated immune response.

Abstract: The invention relates to novel p38 MAPK inhibitor which involves Mycobacterium w and/or its constituents in pharmaceutically acceptable carriers and their uses. Mycobacterium w and/or its constituents when administered to mammal results in p38 inhibition The inhibition is found to last more than 28 days. It is also found to induce inhibition of TNF-? it suppresses cytokines in a pattern identical to Glucocorticoids. In transforms cells it also induces apoptosis. P38 mediated conditions include inflammation, cell differentiation, cell proliferation, cell inhibition, cell cycle regulation, anti-inflammatory reactions, immune modulation, vascularization, response to external stimuli and angiogenesis. The use of Mycobacterium w (Mw) and/or constituents of Mycobacterium w for inhibition of p38 protein kinase i.e. (i) to induce apoptosis in transformed cells (ii) for inhibition of TNF-? (iii) for inhibition of cytokines.

Abstract: The invention relates to a novel adjuvant Mycobacterium w and or its constituents and adjuvant containing composition, which contains antigen(s) with pharmaceutical acceptable carrier and its uses. Mycobacterium w and or its constituents when administered with antigen(s) to mammal results in enhanced immunogenicity of antigen. The enhanced immunogenicity manifests as humoral responses as well as cell mediated immunity. The adjuvant effect is seen with variety of antigens in various mammals irrespective of their immune status at the time of administration of Mycobacterium w and antigen containing composition. e.g. immune naïve or preimmunized status.

Abstract: The invention relates to process for the preparation of formulations comprising a microorganism Mycobacterium w for the management of bronchial Asthma (obstructive lung disease).

Abstract: Human Immunodeficiency virus causes depletion of CD4 cells. The depletion of CD4 cells results in decrease in immunity of an infected individual. Due to decrease immunity various opportunistic infections occur. These infections are cause for morbidity and mortality in HIV infected individuals. The treatment of HIV these includes antiretroviral drugs. These drugs have their own side effects and immune reconstitution achieved is delayed and slow. Various attempts have been made to improve CD4 count, use of IL-2 is one of them. It is associated with systemic side effects during the period of its administration. The present invention provides method of using mycobacterium w for the management of HIV. According to present invention mycobacterium w when given intradermally is effective in prophylaxis and treatment of AIDS or AIDS related complex (ARC). It is found to improve immunity as well as CD4 count. It is found to eliminate symptoms like fever, diarrhea.
