Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

The present invention relates to methods for treating an individual with high grade glioblastoma multiforme by preventing or disrupting the binding of CD95 to its ligand, CD95L, in vivo, whereupon that neutralization of CD95 activity reduces undesirable glial cell migration and invasion into body tissue.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1 - 12 . (canceled) 13 . A pharmaceutical composition, comprising at least one agent that neutralizes CD95 activity to an individual with high grade glioma. 14 . The pharmaceutical composition of claim 13 , wherein the agent is Nok1 or APG101. 15 . A method for screening for an agent, which modulates/effects, preferably neutralizes the activity of CD95, comprising the steps (a) incubating a mixture comprising (i) CD95 or a functional fragment thereof (ii) a candidate agent under conditions whereby CD95 or a functional fragment thereof as a reference activity; (b) detecting the activity of CD95 or a functional fragment thereof to determine an activity in the presence of the agent; (c) determining a difference between the activity in the presence of the agent and the reference activity. 16 - 18 . (canceled)
