Polypeptides for Stimulation of Immune Response (Adjuvants)
Abstract: HMGN polypeptides belong to the high mobility group (HMG) family of chromosomal binding peptides. HMGN polypeptides typically function inside the cell nucleus to bind to DNA and nucleosomes and regulate the transcription of various genes. HMGN polypeptides also can be released by peripheral blood mononuclear cells. However, the extracellular...

Therapeutic Antitumor Combination Containing TLR4 Agonist HMGN1
Abstract: Immune checkpoint inhibitors (e.g. CTLA-4, PD-L1) have recently shown significant promise in the treatment of cancer.  However, when used alone, these checkpoint inhibitors are limited by the absence or repression of immune cells within the targeted cancer.  For those cancers associated with these limited immune systems, there remains a need...

Fully Human Antibody Targeting Tumor Necrosis Factor Receptor Type 2 (TNFR2) for Cancer Immunotherapy
Abstract: Tumor necrosis factor receptor type 2 (TNFR2)-expressing regulatory T cells (Tregs), present in the tumor microenvironment, play an important role in tumor immune evasion. TNFR2 plays a crucial role in stimulating the activation and proliferation of Tregs, a major checkpoint of antitumor immune responses. In addition to its expression on Tregs,...

Immunotherapy Combination Treatment Containing both TLR4 and TLR2/6 Agonists, a Checkpoint Inhibitor, and a STING agonist.
Abstract: Melanoma is an aggressive form of skin cancer that commonly becomes metastatic, spreading to nearby tissue or other parts of the body, including distant skin or subcutaneous sites such as the lungs, liver, brain, or bone. Metastatic melanoma is very drug resistant and difficult to treat, and therefore, the prognosis for these patients is poor....
