Journal ArticleDOI
CpG Oligonucleotides as Cancer Vaccine Adjuvants.
TL;DR: This work reviews pre-clinical and clinical studies concerning the utility of TLR 7/8/9 agonists as adjuvants for tumor vaccines and finds that targeting TLR agonists can reduce the frequency of Tregs while causing immunosuppressive MDSC in the tumor bed to differentiate into tumoricidal macrophages thereby enhancing tumor elimination.
Journal ArticleDOI
FDA guidance on prophylactic DNA vaccines: Analysis and recommendations
TL;DR: The evolution of FDA policy over that period, the status of current regulatory guidance, and recommendations for further changes to facilitate development in this field are described.
Journal ArticleDOI
Combination therapy targeting toll like receptors 7, 8 and 9 eliminates large established tumors
TL;DR: The combination of agonists targeting TLRs 7/8 and 9 represents a significant improvement in cancer immunotherapy and eradicated large primary tumors and established long-term protective immunity.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effect of TLR Agonists on the Differentiation and Function of Human Monocytic Myeloid-Derived Suppressor Cells

TL;DR: It is found that the suppressive activity of mMDSC isolated from cancer patients can be reversed by treatment with TLR7/8 agonists, which induce human ions to differentiate into tumoricidal M1-like macrophages.
Journal ArticleDOI
Synthetic oligonucleotides as modulators of inflammation
TL;DR: Preclinical studies suggest that “suppressive” ODN may slow or prevent diseases characterized by pathologic immune stimulation, including autoimmunity and septic shock, and the therapeutic value of CpG and TTAGGG ODN might be optimized by early administration.
