Teclistamab is a T-cell–redirecting bispecific antibody that targets both CD3 expressed on the surface of T cells and B-cell maturation antigen myeloma cells. In phase 1 dose-defining portion study, teclistamab showed promising efficacy in patients with relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma.
Preimplantation development is a period of dynamic epigenetic change that begins with remodeling egg and sperm genomes, ends implantation. During this time, parental-specific imprinting marks are maintained to direct appropriate imprinted gene expression. We previously demonstrated H19 could be lost during preimplantation under certain culture conditions. To define the lability genomic imprints determine whether loss continues at later stages development, expression methylation were examined...
G protein-coupled receptor, family C, group 5, member D (GPRC5D) is an orphan receptor expressed in malignant plasma cells. Talquetamab, a bispecific antibody against CD3 and GPRC5D, redirects T cells to mediate killing of GPRC5D-expressing myeloma cells.In phase 1 study, we evaluated talquetamab administered intravenously weekly or every other week (in doses from 0.5 180 μg per kilogram body weight) subcutaneously weekly, week, monthly (5 1600 kilogram) patients who had heavily pretreated...
Abstract Cell surface expression levels of GPRC5D, an orphan G protein–coupled receptor, are significantly higher on multiple myeloma (MM) cells, compared with normal plasma cells or other immune which renders it a promising target for immunotherapeutic strategies. The novel GPRC5D-targeting T-cell redirecting bispecific antibody, talquetamab, effectively kills GPRC5D+ MM cell lines in the presence T from both healthy donors heavily pretreated patients. In addition, talquetamab has potent...
8011 Background: Teclistamab is the first approved off-the-shelf BCMA×CD3 bispecific antibody for treatment of patients (pts) with RRMM based on data from pivotal phase 1/2 MajesTEC-1 study (NCT03145181/NCT04557098). Moreau et al ( NEJM 2022) reported rapid, deep, and durable responses: overall response rate (ORR) was 63% (39% ≥complete [CR] rate), a median duration (mDOR) 18.4 mo, progression-free survival (mPFS) 11.3 mo after follow-up (mFU) 14.1 mo. Here, we present updated results...
E2F is a family of transcription factors that regulate both cellular proliferation and differentiation. To establish the role E2F3 in vivo, we generated an E2f3 mutant mouse strain. E2F3-deficient mice arise at one-quarter expected frequency, demonstrating important for normal development. determine molecular consequences deficiency, analyzed properties embryonic fibroblasts derived from mice. Mutation dramatically impairs mitogen-induced, transcriptional activation numerous E2F-responsive...
Cloning by somatic cell nuclear transfer requires that epigenetic information possessed the donor nucleus be reprogrammed to an embryonic state. Little is known, however, about this remodeling process, including when it occurs, its efficiency, and how well markings characteristic of normal development are maintained. Examining fate associated with imprinted genes during clonal offers one means addressing these questions. We examined transcript abundance, allele specificity gene expression,...
E2F directs the cell cycle-dependent expression of genes that induce or regulate division process. In mammalian cells, this transcriptional activity arises from combined properties multiple E2F-DP heterodimers. study, we show potential individual species is dependent upon their nuclear localization. This a constitutive property E2F-1, -2, and -3, whereas localization E2F-4 its association with other factors. We previously showed accounts for majority endogenous species. now subcellular...
The E2F family of proteins is required to establish the correct cell-cycle-dependent transcription genes that direct process cell division. All previously identified can act in a similar manner; depending on whether or not they are associated with cycle inhibitors retinoblastoma protein (pRB), p107, p130, either repress activate E2F-responsive genes. We now report cloning and characterization another member, E2F-6, whose structure reminiscent dominant other factor families. dimerization DNA...
Efficacious antitumor immune responses must overcome multiple suppressive mechanisms in the tumor microenvironment to control cancer progression. In this study, we demonstrate that dual targeting of myeloid populations by inhibiting CSF-1/CSF-1R signaling and activation antigen-presenting cells with agonist anti-CD40 treatment confers superior efficacy increased survival compared monotherapy preclinical models. Concurrent CSF-1R blockade CD40 agonism lead profound changes composition...
Abstract The success of targeted or immune therapies is often hampered by the emergence resistance and/or clinical benefit in only a subset patients. We hypothesized that combining therapy with modulation would show enhanced antitumor responses. Here, we explored combination potential erdafitinib, fibroblast growth factor receptor (FGFR) inhibitor under development, PD-1 blockade an autochthonous FGFR2K660N/p53mut lung cancer mouse model. Erdafitinib monotherapy treatment resulted...

As a redirection therapy, clinical outcomes teclistamab may be influenced by patient immune fitness tumor expression. We correlated characteristics baseline profiles response disease burden in R/RMM from pivotal phase 1/2...
Tumor development is dependent upon the inactivation of two key tumor-suppressor networks, p16 Ink4a –cycD/cdk4–pRB–E2F and p19 Arf –mdm2–p53, that regulate cellular proliferation tumor surveillance response. These networks are known to intersect with one another, but mechanisms poorly understood. Here, we show E2F directly participates in transcriptional control both normal transformed cells. This occurs a manner significantly different from regulation classic E2F-responsive targets. In...
