Abstract: Provided is a fusion protein, e.g., a cytokine receptor fusion protein, e.g., an IL-10 trap, with a novel linker sequence to permit the fusion protein to functionally optimally, e.g., to permit a cytokine receptor portion of a cytokine receptor fusion protein to bind optimally to its target cytokine. The fusion protein, or an expression vector encoding for the fusion proteins, can be used to treat cell proliferative diseases and disorders, including certain forms of cancer and inflammatory disorders.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to recombinant human adenoviruses engineered to express a structural protein of a coronavirus. The recombinant adenoviruses are suitable for active immunization against a coronavirus in a human subject. Additionally, immune globulin obtained from immunized human subjects is suitable for passive immunization of a coronavirus-infected human subject.

Abstract: Provided herein are therapeutic methods, kits, and pharmaceutical compositions for protecting a subject from radiation using a therapeutic agent selected from the group consisting of RRx-OO1 and a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof. One exemplary therapeutic method involves administering RRx-OO1 to the subject prior to the subject being exposed to the radiation, in order to protect the subject against radiation, such as ionizing radiation containing ?-rays, ?-rays, ?-rays, neutron radiation, or a combination thereof.

Abstract: Disclosed herein are recombinant adenoviruses with one or more nucleotide sequences inserted between two viral transcription units, formulations comprising the recombinant adenoviruses, and methods of treatment using the recombinant adenoviruses. In some embodiments, the one or more nucleotide sequences are inserted in an IX-E2 insertion site and/or an L5-E4 insertion site.

Abstract: Devices, systems, and methods for medication infusion are described herein. In some embodiments, a system includes a patient access subassembly, a first fluid reservoir, a second fluid reservoir, and an assembly. The assembly can have a first configuration in which the patient access subassembly is in fluid communication with the first fluid reservoir via a first tube, a second configuration in which the first fluid reservoir is in fluid communication with the second fluid reservoir, and a third configuration in which the first fluid reservoir is in fluid communication with the patient access subassembly via a second tube, the first fluid reservoir fluidically isolated from the first tube in the third configuration.

Abstract: The invention provides for a recombinant adenoviral vector comprising a recombinant oncolytic adenovirus which has: (1) a modified transcription regulatory sequence wherein the adenoviral vector is transcriptionally active in cancer cells and/or hyperproliferative cells and transcriptionally attenuated in normal cells, and (2) a transgene encoding one or more cancer antigens that are specific to a subject. The invention further provides a method of producing said recombinant adenoviral vector. The recombinant oncolytic adenoviral vector described above is used in methods of stimulating a heightened immune response against a cancer antigen in a subject or a method of treating cancer in a subject.
