Abstract: Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) has not benefited from innovative immunotherapies, mainly because of the lack of actionable immune targets. Novel tumor-specific antigens (TSAs) shared by a large proportion of AML cells are described herein. Most of the TSAs described herein derives from aberrantly expressed unmutated genomic sequences, such as intronic and intergenic sequences, which are not expressed in normal tissues. Nucleic acids, compositions, cells and vaccines derived from these TSAs are described. The use of the TSAs, nucleic acids, compositions, cells and vaccines for the treatment of leukemia such as AML is also described.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides methods of treating cancer by silencing tumor-innervating sensory neurons. The methods include treating cancer by genetic ablation of ion channels (e.g., TRPV1 or NaV1.8), local pharmacological silencing or blockade of neuropeptide release from tumor-innervating nociceptor (e.g., with QX-314 and BoNT/a), as well as the antagonism of the CGRP receptor RAMP1 (e.g., with BIBN 4096).

Abstract: Acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) has not benefited from innovative immunotherapies, mainly because of the lack of actionable immune targets. Novel tumor-specific antigens (TSAs) specifically expressed by ALL cells are described herein. Most of the TSAs described herein derives from aberrantly expressed unmutated genomic sequences, such as intronic and intergenic sequences, which are not expressed in normal tissues. Nucleic acids, compositions, cells, antibodies and vaccines derived from these TSAs are described. The use of the TSAs, nucleic acids, compositions, antibodies, cells and vaccines for the treatment of leukemia such as ALL is also described.

Abstract: There is described a medical device for management of the axial length growth of an eye of a subject. The device comprises a central region having a first power, a transition region surrounding the central region, and a peripheral region surrounding the transition region and having a second power. The transition region has a width at most equal to 1.5 mm. The second power is chosen based on the first power to achieve a target net power, the target net power being the addition of the first power and the second power. The surface area of the central and peripheral regions is chosen as a function of the surface area of the pupil of the eye. Furthermore, the curve of power within the transition region is steep between the first power and the second power so that the transition region generates no optically usable power.
