Abstract: A method for overcoming mild to moderate immune suppression includes the steps of inducing production of naive T-cells and restoring T-cell immunity. A method of vaccine immunotherapy includes the steps of inducing production of naive T-cells and exposing the naive T-cells to endogenous or exogenous antigens at an appropriate site. Additionally, a method for unblocking immunization at a regional lymph node includes the steps of promoting differentiation and maturation of immature dendritic cells at a regional lymph node and allowing presentation of processed peptides by resulting mature dendritic cells, thus, for example, exposing tumor peptides to T-cells to gain immunization of the T-cells. Further, a method of treating cancer and other persistent lesions includes the steps of administering an effective amount of a natural cytokine mixture as an adjuvant to endogenous or exogenous administered antigen to the cancer or other persistent lesions.

Abstract: The present invention provides compositions and methods of immunotherapy to treat cancer or other antigen-producing diseases or lesions. According to one embodiment of the invention, a composition is provided for eliciting an immune response to at (east one antigen in a patient having an antigen-producing disease or lesion, the composition comprising an effective amount of a cytokine mixture, preferably comprising IL-1, IL-2, IL-6, IL-8, IFN ? (gamma) and TNF-? (alpha). The cytokine mixture acts as an adjuvant with the antigen associated with the antigen-producing disease or lesion to enhance the immune response of the patient to the antigen. Methods are therefore also provided for eliciting an immune response to at least one antigen in a patient having an antigen-producing disease or lesion utilizing the cytokine mixture of the invention. The compositions and methods are useful in the treatment of antigen-producing diseases such as cancer, infectious diseases or persistent lesions.

Abstract: A pharmaceutical composition including an adjuvant effective amount of a protected inosine monophosphate (IMP) compound. The pharmaceutical composition includes the protected IMP compound alone, or in combination with vaccine agents with or without additional adjuvants. The pharmaceutical composition can be utilized as a vaccine composition or can be included with existing vaccine compositions in order to increase a specific T lymphocyte mediated immune response thereto. Various methods relating to the pharmaceutical composition and the vaccine are described herein. The vaccines can be employed to prevent or treat infections. Additionally, the pharmaceutical compositions not only increase T-cell responses, but also confer, by pretreatment, non-specific protection against a variety of pathogens. This combination of actions is appropriate for enhancing defense against bioterrorism with organisms like smallpox and anthrax.

Abstract: A highly efficient method of making a primary cell derived biologic by purifying mononuclear cells (MNCs) in a automated cell processor to remove contaminating cells by loading leukocytes onto lymphocyte separation medium (LSM) and centrifuging the medium to obtain purified MNCs, storing the MNCs overnight in a closed sterile bag system, stimulating an induction mixture of the MNCs with phytohemagglutinin (PHA) or other mitogen and ciprofloxacin in a scalable cell culture device and producing a primary cell derived biologic from the MNCs, removing the mitogen from the induction mixture by filtering, incubating the induction mixture, clarifying the induction mixture by filtering to obtain a primary cell derived biologic supernatant, and clearing the primary cell derived biologic supernatant from adventitious agents by anion exchange chromatography, filtration. A closed system prevents contamination of the resulting primary cell derived biologic. An automated method of purifying cells.
