Abstract: The present invention relates to a new antibody anti-nectin-4. Nectin-4 is a tumor-associated antigen overexpressed in several cancers and notably in 30%, 49% and 86% of breast, ovarian and lung carcinomas, respectively, which are tumors of bad prognosis. Treatments remain still elusive. That's why the inventors developed a new targeted therapy based on an antibody having specificity to nectin-4 (called 14A5.2 mab). Indeed, the inventors selected this antibody for its intrinsic prophylactic anti-metastatic properties and also for the treatment of localized primary and metastatic cancer. More, the 14A5.2 mab could be indicated for the treatment of cancer resistant to ASG-22ME (from Astellas company). Thus, the invention relates to the 14A5.2 mab and its uses thereof.

Abstract: Methods and systems for mapping camera location and selecting a desired view in a video management system make use of images showing fiducial markers to identify camera location and desired camera views. In one implementation, a central computer receives an image obtained by a camera showing a fiducial marker with indicia. The image is processed to determine the identity of the fiducial marker. Location information associated with the identity is retrieved from a database and used to identify the location of the camera. In another implementation, images of fiducial markers obtained by a plurality of cameras are used to select a subset of fiducial markers identified as being present at a desired location. Based on that subset of fiducial markers, each of the cameras being present at that desired location are then identified.

Abstract: Elevator interior lighting provided by a temporary LED light fixture and power supply installed on or adjacent an elevator canopy. The temporary LED power supply comprises an LED driver and an emergency LED power supply. The LED driver connects to LEDs of the temporary LED light fixture and supplies sufficient power to provide code-compliant temporary lighting in the cab. The emergency LED power supply module connects to one or more emergency LEDs and supplies sufficient power to provide code-compliant emergency lighting in the cab upon loss of primary electrical power. To minimize costs when converting to permanent lighting, additional LED light fixtures can be added and connected to the same temporary LED power supply, and the emergency LED power module may be relocated into a down light power supply to power two or more down lights in the event of a loss of primary electrical power.

Abstract: Asset data is collected from one or more asset managers and stored in a known asset database. The known asset database enables tracking and maintenance of assets associated with each asset manager. One or more field technicians may also be associated with assets in the known asset database. A field technician is provided with access to a field asset management application on a mobile device, which allows the field technician to provide data associated with asset samples. Asset sample data is then correlated with asset data. Once an asset sample has been correlated with an asset, a field technician or other party is presented with an interface through an asset management application, allowing the party to place one or more requests for tests to be performed on one or more asset samples. Once the one or more tests are performed, test results data is provided.

Abstract: A tape closure system is shown and described herein. The tape closure system includes a first tape component having a pressure sensitive adhesive and a second tape component having a pressure sensitive adhesive, where at least one of the pressure sensitive adhesives has a modified surface to reduce the tack of the surface such that when the first and second pressure adhesives are brought into contact with one another they may sufficiently adhere to one another to form a seal but are still separable from one another and able to be repeatedly opened and sealed. Such a tape may be manufactured through high speed manufacturing processes and wound into large master rolls. In the roll configuration, the modified surface contacts the backside of the liner and experiences compressive forces in the roll. Due to the compressive forces, a part of the modified surface may get pushed into the PSA, thereby affecting the properties of the modified adhesive.
