  • Compounds for immunotherapy and diagnosis of colon cancer and methods for their use
    Publication number: 20020076414
    Abstract: Compositions and methods for the therapy and diagnosis of cancer, such as colon cancer, are disclosed. Compositions may comprise one or more colon tumor proteins, immunogenic portions thereof, or polynucleotides that encode such portions. Alternatively, a therapeutic composition may comprise an antigen presenting cell that expresses a colon tumor protein, or a T cell that is specific for cells expressing such a protein. Such compositions may be used, for example, for the prevention and treatment of diseases such as colon cancer. Diagnostic methods based on detecting a colon tumor protein, or mRNA encoding such a protein, in a sample are also provided.

    Applicant: Corixa Corporation
    Inventors: Jiangchun Xu, Michael J. Lodes, Heather Secrist, Darin R. Benson, Madeleine Joy Meagher, John A. Stolk, Tongtong Wang, Yuqiu Jiang, Carole L. Smith, Gordon E. King, Aijun Wang, Jonathan D. Clapper
  • Compositions and methods for the therapy and diagnosis of breast cancer
    Publication number: 20020068285
    Abstract: Compositions and methods for the therapy and diagnosis of cancer, particularly breast cancer, are disclosed. Illustrative compositions comprise one or more breast tumor polypeptides, immunogenic portions thereof, polynucleotides that encode such polypeptides, antigen presenting cell that expresses such polypeptides, and T cells that are specific for cells expressing such polypeptides. The disclosed compositions are useful, for example, in the diagnosis, prevention and/or treatment of diseases, particularly breast cancer.
