Abstract: In some examples, an embolization device includes multiple sections with three-dimensional non-helical structures when deployed at a vascular site. The multiple sections include a first section and one or more second sections that are smaller than the first section. The first section may have a deployed structure configured to anchor the device at a vascular site (e.g., a blood vessel) of a patient while each of the one or more second sections may be formed from loops that configured to pack and obstruct the vascular site. In some cases, the embolization device also includes a third section having a deployed configuration with multiple helical windings or loops is configured to anchor the embolization device at the vascular site.

Abstract: Techniques for a flexible data security and machine learning system for merging third-party data are provided. In one technique, the system receives a data set from a third-party entity and receives selection data that indicates that the third-party entity selected a set of data security policies that includes an encryption option and a data mixing option from among multiple data mixing options. In response to receiving the selection data, the system stores data that associates the set of data security policies with the data set, encrypts the data set according to the encryption option, and persistently stores the encrypted data set. Later, the system decrypts the encrypted data set in volatile memory, generates, based on the data mixing option, training data based on the decrypted version of the data set, trains a machine-learned model based on the training data, and stores the machine-learned model in association with the data set.

Abstract: The present invention relates to the field of immunotherapy, in particular adoptive T cell therapy or T cell receptor (TCR) gene therapy of cancer. The invention provides a nucleic acid encoding at least one T cell receptor alpha chain construct and/or TCR beta chain construct of a TCR construct capable of specifically binding to an epitope from NY-ESO-1 (also designated CTAG-1) in complex with a human MHC, wherein the TCR alpha chain construct and/or the TCR beta chain construct comprises a complementarity determining region 3 (CDR3) having at least 90% sequence identity to an amino acid selected from SEQ ID NO: 1-20. The invention provides TCR constructs restricted to an epitope from NY-ESO-1 presented on MHC I, and, for the first time, TCR constructs restricted to an epitope from NY-ESO-1 presented on MHC II molecules, and thus enables a combined adoptive T cell therapy with both recombinant CD4+ and re-combinant CD8+ T cells.
