Methods of providing a pretreatment to a subject suitable for preventing hearing loss are also provided. The capsaicin and TNF? inhibitor may be provided in different delivery forms to the subject. Methods of providing a treatment for hearing loss with a TNF? inhibitor alone, such as entanercept, or with capsaicin alone, are also provided.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides scaffolds and antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) comprising a stimulator of interferon genes (STING). The present disclosure also provides uses of the ADCs in treatment, e.g., treatment of cancer.

Abstract: Disclosed in the present invention is the use of an anti-HER2 antibody-drug conjugate in cancer treatment. Further provided in the present invention is the use of a pharmaceutically acceptable salt, stereoisomer, or metabolite thereof, or a solvate of each of the foregoing in the manufacture of a medicament for the prophylaxis and/or treatment of a cancer insensitive or irresponsive to a treatment with a HER2-targeting agent.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to antibodies and antibody conjugates, for instance antibody drug conjugates, with binding specificity for receptor tyrosine kinase orphan receptor 1 (ROR1) and its isoforms and homologs, and compositions comprising the antibodies or antibody conjugates, including pharmaceutical compositions. Also provided are methods of producing the antibodies and antibody conjugates and compositions thereof as well as methods of using the antibodies and antibody conjugates and compositions thereof, such as in therapeutic and diagnostic methods.

Abstract: This invention provides chimeric antigen receptors (CARs) targeting human EphA3 and dual targeting CARs that bind to human EphA3 and to human mutant epidermal growth factor receptor variant III (EGFRvIII). This invention also relates to CAR-T cells comprising the provided CARs or the dual targeting CARs. Methods for treating a solid tumor cancer by administering the CARs are provided.

Abstract: The present invention relates to antibody drug conjugates (ADCs) presenting improved properties of in vivo tolerability.

Abstract: Methods and compositions using novel Cbl inhibitors for supporting engraftment of immune cells to increase the efficacy of cell-based immunotherapeutics are disclosed. Also provided are cell-based immunotherapy methods and compositions using novel Cbl inhibitors for the propagation of cells desirable for use in cell-based immunotherapies.

Abstract: Immunomodulatory nanofilaments are provided which present immune factors, especially cytokines, to immune cells, particularly T cells, so as to modulate the immune response of said cells. Methods of using such nanofilaments are also provided.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a compound comprising a first polypeptide sequence comprising at least three different amino acid sequences selected from the group consisting of GFTFSDYW (SEQ ID NO: 1), IRLKSNNYAA (SEQ ID NO: 2) and TFGNSFAY (SEQ ID NO: 3), a second polypeptide sequence comprising at least three different amino acid sequences selected from the group consisting of TGAVTTNNY (SEQ ID NO: 4), GTN (SEQ ID NO: 5) and ALWYSNHWV (SEQ ID NO: 6), or a variant of any one of said amino acid sequences of SEQ ID NO: 1 to SEQ ID NO: 6 having a different amino acid at one position, wherein said compound or variant is capable of binding to tumour-associated Mucin-1 (TA-MUC1).

Abstract: Provided is a stable pharmaceutical composition comprising a labeling moiety-anti-human antibody Fab fragment conjugate, and the like. In the pharmaceutical composition comprising a labeling moiety-anti-human antibody Fab fragment conjugate, citric acid, phosphoric acid, 2-[4-(2-hydroxyethyl)-1-piperazinyl]ethanesulfonic acid or trishydroxymethyl aminomethane is added as a buffering agent, sucrose or glycerin is added as a stabilizer, a nonionic surfactant is added, and the pH is adjusted to 6.5 to 7.5. This enables suppression of generation of multimers and insoluble subvisible particles during preservation of the labeling moiety-anti-human antibody Fab fragment conjugate.

Abstract: The present disclosure is generally directed to compositions that include antibodies, e.g., monoclonal, antibodies, antibody fragments, etc., that specifically bind a SIRP?1 polypeptide, e.g., a human SIRP?1, and use of such compositions in preventing, reducing risk, or treating an individual in need thereof.

Abstract: Several embodiments of the methods and compositions disclosed herein relate to immune cells that are engineered to express chimeric antigen receptors (CAR) and/or genetically modified to reduce potential side effects of cellular immunotherapy. Several embodiments relate to genetic modifications to the immune cells, such as Natural Killer (NK) cells, to reduce, substantially, reduce, or eliminate expression of a marker by the immune cells that would otherwise cause them to be self-targeted by the CAR. In several embodiments, the CAR targets CD70, and in some embodiments is used for renal cell carcinoma immunotherapy.
