Abstract: Small molecule integrin ligand mimetics facilitate integrin-ligand interactions, which may be used to prepare vaccines, adoptive cell therapies, immunotherapies for cancer, and a variety of other conditions. As integrin mediated cell-cell interactions are critical to antigen presentation and effector cell killing, increasing the efficiency of integrin receptor-ligand interactions will stabilize the immune synapse and improve effector functions. Compositions and methods including the mimetics enhance: (1) the priming of vaccines (including, but not limited to, cancer vaccines); (2) cytolytic activity of adoptive cell therapies (including, but not limited to ??T-cells, CTLs, NK, iNKT); (3) immunotherapies (including, but not limited to, negative checkpoint blockage strategies such as anti-CTLA-4 and anti-PD-1); and (4) biologic therapies (including, but not limited, to trastuzumab and rituxamab), whereby the mechanism-of-action includes antibody dependent cellular cytotoxicity (ADCC).

Abstract: Methods are provided for identifying agents which modulate the interaction of tyrosine kinases of the Syk family with integrins. Also provided are compositions and methods for using these agents to modulate tyrosine kinases of the Syk family and to treat disease such as thrombosis, inflammation, metastasis and tumor cell growth in a subject.
