Abstract: The present disclosure relates to compositions and methods for treating cancers using antisense (AS) nucleic acids directed against Insulin-like Growth Factor 1 Receptor (IGF-1R). The AS may be administered to the patients systemically, or may be used to produce an autologous cancer cell vaccine. In embodiments, the AS are provided in an implantable irradiated biodiffusion chamber comprising tumor cells and an effective amount of the AS. The chambers are irradiated and implanted in the abdomen of subjects and stimulate an immune response that attacks tumors distally. The compositions and methods disclosed herein may be used to treat many different kinds of cancer, for example glioblastoma.

Abstract: An apparatus includes a chamber container and a tray. The chamber container has a first portion and a second portion removably coupled to the first portion. The first and second portions collectively define an inner volume. The tray is configured to be removably disposed within the inner volume of the chamber container. The tray includes a first portion and a second portion coupled to the first portion via a hinge. The first portion includes a first retention surface. The second portion includes a second retention surface. The tray is configured to receive a biodiffusion chamber between the first portion and the second portion such that the first retention surface and the second retention surface engage a portion of the biodiffusion chamber to (1) place the biodiffusion chamber in a predetermined orientation and (2) maintain the biodiffusion chamber in a substantially fixed position relative to the tray.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to compositions and methods for treating cancers using antisense (AS) nucleic acids directed against Insulin-like Growth Factor 1 Receptor (IGF-1R). The AS may be administered to the patients systemically, or may be used to produce an autologous cancer cell vaccine. In some embodiments, the AS are provides in an implantable irradiated biodiffusion chamber comprising tumor cells and an effective amount of the AS. The chambers are irradiated and implanted in the abdomem of subjects and stimulate an immune response that attacks tumors distally. The compositions and methods disclosed herein may be used to treat many different kinds of cancer, for example glioblastoma. In some embodiments, the method are provided to predict the effectiveness of antisense (AS) nucleic acids directed against Insulin-like Growth Factor 1 Receptor (IGF-1R) in a subject.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides pharmaceutical compositions comprising nucleic acids capable of targeting IGF-1R expression in M2 cells. The present disclosure also provides methods for the selective reduction of M2 cells by targeting expression of IGF-1R in these cells. The present disclosure further provides methods for treating cancer and enhancing therapeutic by targeting expression of IGF-1R in M2 cells in patients. The pharmaceutical composition of the present invention is effective when administered systemically to subjects in need thereof. The ease of administration of the pharmaceutical composition facilitates treatment and enhances patient compliance.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides methods and compositions for enhancing the treatment of a cancer, particularly in a human subject, by administering antibody drug conjugates (ADCs) to inhibit or kill specific myeloid/monocyte/macrophage-lineage cells. The myeloid/monocyte/macrophage-lineage cells are identified, for example, by expression of one or more of the scavenger receptors CD204 and CD163, and/or mannose receptor-1 (CD206).
