Abstract: The present disclosure relates generally to the field of cancer immunotherapy. More particularly, the present disclosure provides antibody recruitment molecules, pharmaceutical compositions comprising same and kits comprising same. The present disclosure also provides methods of treating cancer using the antibody recruitment molecules in combination with oncolytic virus therapy, and methods for enhancing the efficacy and/or reducing the toxicity of the oncolytic virus therapy.

Abstract: The present application relates to compounds of Formula I comprising an antibody binding domain (ABD) comprising a hapten that binds to an antibody in a subject, the antibody comprising a hapten binding site, an antibody labelling domain (ALD) comprising a functional group that forms a covalent bond with an amino acid in the antibody that is proximal to the hapten binding site and the formation of the covalent bond results in elimination of the ABD and either a target binding domain (TBD) or a detection moiety domain (DMD), each domain being optionally connected with independently selected linkers. The present application also includes methods and uses of the compounds, for example, for immune recognition of target cells by recruited labelled antibodies.

Abstract: The present description relates to covalent immune recruiters (CIRs) comprising an Fc receptor targeting domain (FTD), a covalent binding group (CBG), and a target binding domain (TBD), wherein on binding of the FTD to a cognate Fc receptor, the CBG forms a covalent bond with an amino acid in the Fc receptor. The present description also includes functionalized cells modified by covalent binding of the CIR, methods and uses thereof, for example, methods of functionalizing cells, and methods and uses of such cells for recognition of target cells.

Abstract: The present invention describes a method for treating cancer comprising adoptive transfer of tumor antigen specific CD8+ T cells and an oncolytic virus vaccine targeting the same antigen.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a method for stimulating tumor antigen-specific immune responses comprising cancer vaccination involving the blockade or inhibition of interferon signaling. In particular, the method comprises administering an inhibitor of interferon signaling and a cancer vaccine comprising a tumor antigen, wherein the inhibitor of interferon signaling is administered before the cancer vaccine.

Abstract: In one aspect, a method of treating cancer in a mammal is provided. The method comprises administering to the mammal an oncolytic vector that expresses a tumour antigen to which the mammal has a pre-existing immunity. In another aspect, a method of boosting immune response in a mammal having a pre-existing immunity to an antigen is provided comprising intravenous administration to the mammal of a B-cell infecting vector that expresses the antigen.

Abstract: In the present invention, a procedure is described which allows for the efficient delivery of gene and cell based vaccines to the rectal mucosal tissue, and which results in efficient and prolonged transferred gene expression in the mucosal tissue resulting in a potent local mucosal immune response directed against the antigen encoded by the administered nucleic acid. This invention provides a unique and potent approach for the development of vaccines and vaccination strategies to develop mucosal immune protective responses in the lower GI and GU tract in the prevention and/or treatment of sexually transmitted diseases and other conditions. This approach also provides a means for the successful transfer of genetic material in gene therapy approaches in the treatment or prevention of colonic diseases.
