Matrix-binding checkpoint immunotherapies enhance antitumor efficacy and reduce adverse events

Jeffrey Alan Hubbell, Melody Swartz, Lambert Charles François Potin, Hans Mattias Larsson, Gabriele Galliverti, Jun Ishihara, Kazuto Fukunaga

Immune checkpoint blockade exhibits considerable antitumor activity, but previous studies have reported instances of severe treatment-related adverse events. We sought to explore local immune checkpoint blockade, with an antibody (Ab) form that would be re ...

Human Kunitz-type protease inhibitor engineered for enhanced matrix retention extends longevity of fibrin biomaterials

Jeffrey Alan Hubbell, Peter Frey, Kristen Lorentz, Priscilla Suhasna Maithili Briquez, Hans Mattias Larsson

Aprotinin is a broad-spectrum serine protease inhibitor used in the clinic as an anti-fibrinolytic agent in fibrin-based tissue sealants. However, upon re-exposure, some patients suffer from hypersensitivity immune reactions likely related to the bovine or ...
