  • Patent number: 11560407
    Abstract: The present invention provides peptides of general formula (I) and salts thereof, wherein: R1 and R2, taken together, form a birradical linker; and R2? is hydrogen; or, alternatively, R1 is selected from hydrogen, —C(?O)—CH2—NH—C(?O)—(C1-C5)alkyl, and —C(?O)—(C1-C20)alkyl; one of R2 and R2? is hydrogen and the other is selected from —C(?O)NR3R4, and —C(?O)OH; and R3 and R4 are same or different and are selected from hydrogen and (C1-C10)alkyl. These peptides are highly efficient in binding and inhibiting FoxP3, being efficient in inhibiting and blocking Treg cell functionality, which make them useful in the treatment of cancer. The present invention also provides constructs comprising the peptide of formula (I) as well as combinations comprising the peptide of formula (I), the construct or both.

  • Patent number: 8524860
    Abstract: The invention relates to peptides of general formula (I), wherein X is absent or X is present and is X14 or X14-X15, wherein X14 and X15, independently from one another, represent an amino acid; their functional variants and fragments, and their pharmaceutically acceptable salts, having the capacity to bind to scurfin and inhibit its biological activity, therefore they regulate or block the activity of regulatory T (Treg) lymphocytes. They are applicable in the treatment of infectious and neoplastic diseases.

  • Publication number: 20130064790
    Abstract: The invention relates to peptides having the capacity to bind to interleukin-10 (IL-10) and their use in the treatment of clinical conditions or pathological disorders associated to IL-10 expression, particularly to a high IL-10 expression, for example, infectious diseases, tumors, cancers and acute damage conditions.

  • Publication number: 20110268757
    Abstract: The invention relates to methods for increasing immunogenicity of an antigenic peptide by means of its covalent coupling to a modulin derived peptide (PSM, phenol soluble modulin). In particular, the binding of PSM?, PSM? and PSM? peptides to an antigen (from a pathogen or a tumor associated protein) increases the capacity of the antigen to activate an immune response in vivo.
