Abstract: The present invention concerns biomarkers and use thereof for determining whether a subject is or is not susceptible to developing a prophylactic or therapeutic immune response after such treatment.

Abstract: The present invention concerns methods for inducing an immune response to an antigen in a patient for treating human disease by administering an immunogenic composition wherein said patient is selected in a patient population of interest. The present invention further concerns methods for determining whether a subject is or is not susceptible to developing a prophylactic or therapeutic immune response after such treatment.

Abstract: The present invention is in the field of immunotherapy and relates to methods for determining the efficacy of certain immunotherapy treatments. The methods of the invention include measuring special biomarker at some time following the initiation of immunotherapy treatment to evaluate the clinical outcome of the said treatment. The invention thus has applications to the field of medicine.

Abstract: The present invention relates to the field of immunology and, in particular, to a vaccination procedure for treatment of a patient against diseases caused for example by infection or cancers. More particularly, the invention relates to methods for predicting whether a subject is or is not susceptible to developing a prophylactic or therapeutic response, preferably immune response, after such vaccination. The present invention relates to methods and compositions for selecting patients best able to raise a therapeutic immune response in vivo by an immunogenic composition, in particular a vaccine.

Abstract: Described are peptides and polypeptides derived from the MUC-1 polypeptide which are able to activate Cytotoxic T Lymphocyte (CTL) response, analogues of such peptides and polypeptides nucleotide sequences encoding such peptides and polypeptides and therapeutic uses thereof. Moreover, indications for selecting appropriate minimal antigenic MUC-1 polypeptides with reference to the HLA-type of the patient to be treated or tested are described.

Abstract: The invention concerns a biological material for preparing pharmaceutical compositions for treating mammals including either a nucleic acid sequence, containing at least a gene of therapeutic interest and elements expressing the gene in vivo in target cells genetically modified by one such nucleic sequence, or at least a target cell not producing antibodies naturally, genetically modified in vitro by at least one such nucleic acid sequence. The gene of therapeutic interest codes for all or part of an antibody expressed at the surface of the target cell, and such an antibody is capable of fixing itself to a polypeptide present at the surface of a cytotoxic effector cell or a T lymphocyte helper involved in the process activating such a cell.
