Abstract: The present disclosure arises at least in part from the seminal recognition that a combination treatment regimen including one or more cycles and/or doses of a checkpoint inhibitor and a therapeutic, either sequentially, in either order, or substantially simultaneously, can be more effective in treating cancer in some subjects and/or can initiate, enable, increase, enhance or prolong the activity and/or number of immune cells, or a medically beneficial response by a tumor.

Abstract: The invention provides a method for inhibiting proliferation of cancer cells, as well as methods for detecting and treating various cancers, including cancer of the brain, lung, breast, prostate and colon. The method comprises contacting a cancer cell with a molecule that disrupts the biological activity of a GDOX molecule. In one embodiment, the molecule is an antibody directed against a GDOX peptide. In other embodiments, the molecule is an antisense nucleotide directed against a GDOX nucleic acid molecule, or a vaccine comprising a GDOX peptide or a polynucleotide encoding a GDOX peptide. The invention additionally provides methods for detecting and treating cancer using GDOX-related molecules.

Abstract: The invention provides a method for inhibiting proliferation of neural cells. The neural cells can be tumor cells, glial cells, neuronal cells, and cells of the central or peripheral nervous systems. The method comprises contacting a neural cell with a molecule that disrupts the biological activity of a granulin molecule. In one embodiment, the molecule is an antibody directed against a granulin peptide. In other embodiments, the molecule is an antisense nucleotide directed against a granulin nucleic acid molecule, or a vaccine comprising a granulin peptide or a polynucleotide encoding a granulin peptide. The invention additionally provides methods for detecting and treating cancer in a neural tissue using granulin-related molecules. Also provided is a method for indenting differentially expressed gene products that are translated from mRNA species, using antibody-based screening of a cDNA expression library.
