Combination Strategies for Immune-Checkpoint Blockade and Response Prediction by Artificial Intelligence.

International journal of molecular sciences
The therapeutic concept of unleashing a pre-existing immune response against the tumor by the application of immune-checkpoint inhibitors (ICI) has resulted in long-term survival in advanced cancer patient subgroups. However, the majority of patients...

pVACtools: A Computational Toolkit to Identify and Visualize Cancer Neoantigens.

Cancer immunology research
Identification of neoantigens is a critical step in predicting response to checkpoint blockade therapy and design of personalized cancer vaccines. This is a cross-disciplinary challenge, involving genomics, proteomics, immunology, and computational a...

High-Throughput Prediction of MHC Class I and II Neoantigens with MHCnuggets.

Cancer immunology research
Computational prediction of binding between neoantigen peptides and major histocompatibility complex (MHC) proteins can be used to predict patient response to cancer immunotherapy. Current neoantigen predictors focus on estimation of MHC binding aff...

Machine-Learning Prediction of Tumor Antigen Immunogenicity in the Selection of Therapeutic Epitopes.

Cancer immunology research
Current tumor neoantigen calling algorithms primarily rely on epitope/major histocompatibility complex (MHC) binding affinity predictions to rank and select for potential epitope targets. These algorithms do not predict for epitope immunogenicity usi...

Extracellular vesicles as nature's nano carriers in cancer therapy: Insights toward preclinical studies and clinical applications.

Pharmacological research
Extracellular vesicles (EVs), which are secreted by various cell types, hold significant potential for cancer therapy. However, there are several challenges and difficulties that limit their application in clinical settings. This review, which integr...

An Integrated Approach to Develop a Potent Vaccine Candidate Construct Against Prostate Cancer by Utilizing Machine Learning and Bioinformatics.

Cancer reports (Hoboken, N.J.)
BACKGROUND: Prostate cancer is the most common malignancy among males. Prostaglandin G/H synthase (PGHS) is an essential enzyme in the synthesis of prostaglandins, and its activation has been linked to many malignancies, including colorectal cancer.

New tools for MHC research from machine learning and predictive algorithms to the tumour immunopeptidome.

Immunology
At a time when immunology seeks to progress ever more rapidly from characterization of a microbial or tumour antigen to the immune correlates that may define protective T-cell immunity, there is a need for robust tools to enable accurate predictions ...
