  • Publication number: 20220249621
    Abstract: Compositions and methods are provided for treating cancer in a subject comprising administering to the subject a therapeutically effective amount of a polypeptide agent that inhibits EphB4 or EphrinB2 mediated functions. In various embodiments the methods further provide administration of a therapeutically effective amount of an immune checkpoint inhibitor. The present inventors have demonstrated that the synergistic effect of the combination of an EphB4-EphrinB2 inhibitor and checkpoint inhibitor provides superior progression-free survival (PFS) and objective response rates (ORR) patients with various cancers by activating T cell and promoting T cell and NK cell trafficking into the tumor and via migration of immune cells (e.g., CD3 and CD8) into the tumor.

  • Publication number: 20220153791
    Abstract: Compositions and methods are provided for treating prostate cancer (PC) in a subject comprising administering to the subject a therapeutically effective amount of a polypeptide agent that inhibits EphB4 or Ephrin B2 mediated functions. More specifically, methods are provided for use in treating PTEN deficient PC or PC that is refractory to treatment using androgen receptor (AR) targeted therapy. Importantly, a therapeutic agent, soluble EphB4, prevented tumor formation and induced tumor regression in established pre-castration and post-castration tumors. Surprisingly, androgen receptor (AR) levels also declined with therapy. PI3K isoform analysis showed downregulation of only PI3K p110 beta which directly regulates AR levels, such that AR decline was rescued with ectopic expression of PI3K beta. EphB4 is thus a novel target in prostate cancer.
