Abstract: There is described herein a method of detecting the presence of DNA from cancer cells in a subject comprising: providing a sample of cell-free DNA from a subject; subjecting the sample to library preparation to permit subsequent sequencing of the cell-free methylated DNA; adding a first amount of filler DNA to the sample, wherein at least a portion of the filler DNA is methylated, then optionally denaturing the sample; capturing cell-free methylated DNA using a binder selective for methylated polynucleotides; sequencing the captured cell-free methylated DNA; comparing the sequences of the captured cell-free methylated DNA to control cell-free methylated DNAs sequences from healthy and cancerous individuals and from individuals with distinct cancer types and subtypes; identifying the presence of DNA from cancer cells if there is a statistically significant similarity between one or more sequences of the captured cell-free methylated DNA and cell-free methylated DNAs sequences from cancerous individuals.

Abstract: The present disclosure is directed recombinant T cell receptors capable of binding a gp100 epitope and nucleic acid molecules encoding the same. In some embodiments, the nucleic acid molecules further comprise a second nucleotide sequence, wherein the second nucleotide sequence or the polypeptide encoded by the second nucleotide sequence inhibits the expression of an endogenous TCR. Other aspects of the disclosure are directed to vectors comprising the nucleic acid molecule and cells comprising the recombinant TCR, the nucleic acid molecule, or the vector. Still other aspects of the disclosure are directed to methods of using the same. In some embodiments, the methods comprise treating a cancer in a subject in need thereof.

Abstract: A method and device for determining the depth and fluorophore concentration of a fluorophore concentration below the surface of an optically absorbing and scattering medium suitable for use in fluorescence-based surgical guidance such as in tumor resection is described. Long-wavelength stimulus light us used to obtain deep tissue penetration. Recovery of depth is performed by fitting measured modulation amplitudes for each spatial frequency to precomputed modulation amplitudes in a table of modulation amplitudes indexed by optical parameters and depth.

Abstract: Thienopyridinone compounds of Formula (I) and pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof are described. In these compounds, one of X1; X2, and X3 is S and the other two are each independently CR, wherein R and all other variables are as defined herein. The compounds are shown to inhibit HPK1 kinase activity and to have in vivo antitumor activity. The compounds can be effectively combined with pharmaceutically acceptable carriers and also with other immunomodulatory approaches, such as a checkpoint inhibition or inhibitors of tryptophan oxidation.
