Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

The present invention provides a novel fusion protein of Flt3L and albumin and its use to increase the Flt3L half-life in vivo and to deliver Flt3L to immune cells in a subject to enhance alternative dendritic cell populations. Use of the fusion protein in combination with other chemotherapeutic, radiotherapeutic and immunotherapeutic methods are also provided.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1. A composition comprising a polypeptide that comprises a sequence having at least 90% identity to the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 1. 2. The composition of claim 1 wherein the polypeptide comprises the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 1. 3. The composition of claim 1 , further comprising at least one chemotherapeutic agent. 4. The composition of claim 1 , further comprising at least one immunotherapeutic agent. 5. The composition of claim 1 wherein the polypeptide is therapeutically effective. 6. A composition comprising a polypeptide that comprises a sequence having at least 98% identity to the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 1. 7. A composition comprising a fusion polypeptide comprising albumin protein linked to a FMS-like tyrosine kinase 3 ligand (Flt3L) protein, and wherein the albumin protein is murine. 8. The composition of claim 7 wherein the Flt3L protein is murine. 9. The composition of claim 7 having the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 2. 10. The composition of claim 7 having the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 3. 11. The composition of claim 7 , further comprising a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier.
