Abstract: Provided herein are compositions and methods for identifying target nucleic acids that are determinants of pathogenic infections. The multiplexed methods provided herein simultaneously detect target proteins such as IgG and IgM immunoglobulins that are indicative of one or more pathogenic infections, from several distinct biological samples. Also provided herein are methods for detecting sequence variants in a nucleic acid sample.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to therapies for the treatment of tumor, autoimmune diseases, or other diseases. In some embodiments, the present disclosure can relate to subject-specific selection of humanized antibodies targeting clonal lineage specific marker proteins.

Abstract: The present invention concerns methods for selecting and producing idiotype vaccines, and in particular methods for selecting and producing an idiotype vaccine for treatment of a B-cell derived malignancy in a subject based on the clonal profile (clonotype) of the malignancy; a method for producing an updated idiotype vaccine matched to a B-cell derived malignancy exhibiting a shifting clonal profile; and the high-fidelity idiotype vaccines produced using the methods. The invention also includes idiotype vaccines produced using the described methods and methods of treating B-cell derived malignancies using the produced vaccines.

Abstract: The present invention relates to compositions, kits, and methods useful for directing an immune response to an epitope of an antigen in a subject, by sensitizing the subject to the epitope and/or by tolerizing the subject to the epitope. The sensitizing method comprises co-administering to the subject the epitope and an immunoglobulin M (IgM) constant region (IgM Fc region). The tolerizing method comprises co-administering to the subject the epitope and an immunoglobulin G (IgG) constant region (IgG Fc region) to the subject.

Abstract: The present invention relates to compositions, kits, and methods for preparing an autologous idiotype vaccine, or autologous anti-idiotype vaccine, for treatment of a B-cell malignancy based on the isotype(s) (class(es)) of immunoglobulins expressed by the malignancy; methods for treating B-cell malignancies; and methods for selecting a treatment for a subject having a B-cell malignancy.
