Novel T cell receptor therapy shows early promise for treating solid tumors

Afamitresgene autoleucel (afami-cel; formerly ADP-A2M4), an adoptive T cell receptor (TCR) therapy targeting the MAGE-A4 cancer antigen, achieved clinically significant results for patients with multiple solid tumor types in a Phase I clinical trial led by researchers at The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center.

Researchers analyze targets of human T cell recognition against all coronaviruses

Researchers analyzed T cell reactivity against alpha and beta common cold coronaviruses (CoVs) [(CCC)] to inform the development of pan-CoV vaccine concepts.

9 Jan 2023

Is universal coronavirus immunity possible?

In a recent study posted to the bioRxiv* preprint server, researchers at Columbia University characterized reciprocal and non-reciprocal T-cell responses against severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2).

8 Jan 2023

COVID-19 vaccine potency and breadth improved by nanoparticle-conjugated adjuvants

In a recent study posted to bioRxiv*, researchers designed a nanoparticle (NP)-conjugated toll-like receptor 9 (TLR9) agonist to improve the adjuvanticity of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) vaccines.

8 Jan 2023

Does the immunization order of vaccine types influence the efficacy of heterologous prime-boost vaccination, especially mRNA and protein-based vaccines?

A new study aimed to analyze whether the order of immunization of vaccine types impacted the efficacy of a heterologous prime-boost vaccination strategy.

Free spike proteins in the blood appear to play a role in myocarditis post-COVID mRNA vaccine

A recent study published in the journal Circulation examines the immunological picture in this scenario, looking for clues to the etiology of this rare and potentially serious complication.

5 Jan 2023

Immune system B-cells may be better in predicting HER2-positive breast cancer treatment response

Researchers at UNC Lineberger Comprehensive Cancer Center and colleagues have found that measuring activation of immune-system B cells may be better than measuring either T-cell activation or the total number of immune cells in and around a tumor, called tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs), in predicting whether HER2-positive breast cancer responds to treatment.

5 Jan 2023

BA.4/BA.5 mutations reduced responsiveness of epitope-specific T cells with original mRNA vaccine

A new study in the journal Viruses examines the phenomenon of breakthrough infections due to the evasion of T-cell immunity by the Omicron BA.4/BA.5 subvariants, showing this to be due to spike gene mutations.

2 Jan 2023

Novel approach may prevent antibodies from triggering immune rejection of transplant cells

Researchers at UCSF have developed a novel, potentially life-saving approach that may prevent antibodies from triggering immune rejection of engineered therapeutic and transplant cells.

2 Jan 2023

Scientists find key reason for ongoing loss of smell in long-COVID

In a recent study published in the journal Science Translational Medicine, researchers reported that long-term anosmia following coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) could be a result of persistent T-cell mediated inflammation occurring in the olfactory epithelium even after the elimination of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) from the olfactory tissue.

27 Dec 2022

COVID-19 vaccination protects people with B cell lymphoma and multiple myeloma

A recent Nature Cancer study documented that individuals with B cell lymphomas (LY) and multiple myeloma (MM) developed potent infection neutralization capabilities against several SARS-CoV-2 variants of concern (VoCs).

22 Dec 2022

Extracellular vesicles enhance cancer immunotherapy

Nano-sized membrane bubbles known as extracellular vesicles activate the immune system in mice and seem to render their tumors sensitive to a type of immunotherapy drug called a checkpoint inhibitor.

22 Dec 2022

T-cell immunity remains effective against SARS-CoV-2 Omicron subvariants

Omicron subvariants effectively escape B-cell immune responses by modifying neutralizing antibody epitopes.

21 Dec 2022

SARS-CoV-2 and human cold coronavirus OC43 inhibit stress granule formation through Nsp15 protein

Researchers investigated the mechanisms through which the human common cold Betacoronavirus OC43 (HCoV-OC43) and severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) inhibit the formation of stress granules.

21 Dec 2022

CARxALL clinical trial approved to evaluate CAR-T technology for patients with T-cell leukemia subtype

The Spanish Agency of Medicines and Medical Products (AEMPS) has approved the CARxALL clinical trial led by the company OneChain Immunotherapeutics (OCI).

21 Dec 2022

Researchers generate a remodeled live-attenuated measles vaccine capable of driving nAb responses against SARS-CoV-2 spike protein

Researchers developed a measles virus (MeV)-vectored vaccine capable of inducing high neutralizing antibody (nAb) responses against SARS-CoV-2.

20 Dec 2022

An assessment of T cell and antibody immunity against SARS-CoV-2 VOCs and the effect of booster shots

A new study in the journal Vaccines aimed to analyze the long-term kinetics of SARS-CoV-2 specific T cell and humoral responses following primary and booster vaccinations in previously infected individuals.

18 Dec 2022

Novel immunotherapy offers a promising new strategy to fight hard-to-treat cancers

Scientists at UC San Francisco have engineered T cells to produce a potent anti-cancer cytokine, but only when they encounter tumor cells.
