Abstract: The present application provides peripheral blood mononuclear cells comprising an antigen, methods of manufacturing such PBMCs, and methods of using such PBMCs, such as for modulating an immune response in an individual. In some embodiments, the PBMCs are conditioned by incubating the PBMC in the presence of an adjuvant.

Abstract: The present application provides nucleated cells comprising a protein or fragment thereof, methods of manufacturing such nucleated cells comprising the protein or fragment thereof, and methods of using such modified nucleated cells (e.g., immune cells) for stimulating an immune response in a HLA agnostic manner.

Abstract: The present application provides peripheral blood mononuclear cells comprising an antigen, methods of manufacturing such PBMCs, and methods of using such PBMCs, such as for modulating an immune response in an individual. In some embodiments, the PBMCs are conditioned by incubating the PBMC in the presence of an adjuvant.

Abstract: The present application provides methods for stimulating an immune response in an individual comprising administering a composition of nucleated cells (e.g., PBMCs) comprising an intracellular exogenous antigen in conjunction with administering an immunoconjugate comprising a variant IL-2 polypeptide and a second polypeptide. The variant IL-2 polypeptide exhibits reduced affinity to the ?-subunit of the IL-2 receptor. The second polypeptide targets a tumor cell or a T cell.

Abstract: The present application provides formulations of modified peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs), wherein the formulation comprises: PBMCs comprising at least one antigen (e.g., a human papillomavirus (HPV) antigen) and a cryopreservation medium. In some embodiments, the PBMCs are conditioned by incubating the PBMC in the presence of an adjuvant.

Abstract: The present application provides enhanced antigen presenting cells comprising an agent that enhances the viability and/or function of the antigen presenting cell and/or an antigen and/or an adjuvant, methods of manufacturing such modified antigen presenting cells, and methods of using such modified antigen presenting cells, such as for modulating an immune response in an individual.

Abstract: The present invention provides methods for inducing tolerance or suppressing an immune response to an antigen by passing a cell suspension containing an immune cell through a constriction, wherein the constriction deforms the cell thereby causing a perturbation of the cell such that an antigen and/or tolerogenic factor enters the cell, thereby generating a tolerogenic and/or immunosuppressive immune cell. In some embodiments, the tolerogenic and/or immunosuppressive immune cell is delivered to an individual and presentation of the antigen induces tolerance and/or suppresses an immune response to the antigen.

Abstract: Provided herein are methods and compositions related to bacteria of genus Burkholderia useful as therapeutic agents.

Abstract: The present application provides immune cells comprising an HPV antigen and an adjuvant, methods of manufacturing such modified immune cells, and methods of using such modified immune cells for treating an HPV-associated disease, preventing an HPV-associated disease and/or for modulating an immune response in an individual with an HPV-associated disease.

Abstract: The present application provides peripheral blood mononuclear cells comprising an antigen, methods of manufacturing such PBMCs, and methods of using such PBMCs, such as for modulating an immune response in an individual.

Abstract: The present invention provides methods for inducing tolerance and/or suppressing an immune response to an antigen by passing a cell suspension containing an anucleate cell through a constriction, wherein the constriction deforms the cell thereby causing a perturbation of the cell such that an antigen and/or tolerogenic factor enters the cell. In some embodiments, the anucleate cell is delivered to an individual and the antigen is delivered to and processed in a tolerogenic environment to induce tolerance and/or suppress an immune response to the antigen.
