  • Publication number: 20210106622
    Abstract: The present invention regards methods and/or compositions related to Natural Killer T cells that are engineered to harbor an expression construct that encodes IL-2, IL-4, IL-7, and/or IL-15 and additionally or alternatively comprise a chimeric antigen receptor (CAR). In specific embodiments, the CAR is a CAR that targets the GD2 antigen, for example in neuroblastoma.

  • Publication number: 20210106623
    Abstract: The present invention relates to peptides, proteins, nucleic acids and cells for use in immunotherapeutic methods. In particular, the present invention relates to the immunotherapy of cancer. The present invention furthermore relates to tumor-associated T-cell peptide epitopes, alone or in combination with other tumor-associated peptides that can for example serve as active pharmaceutical ingredients of vaccine compositions that stimulate anti-tumor immune responses, or to stimulate T cells ex vivo and transfer into patients. Peptides bound to molecules of the major histocompatibility complex (MHC), or peptides as such, can also be targets of antibodies, soluble T-cell receptors, and other binding molecules.
