This study aimed to assess the efficacy and safety of combining cemiplimab, an anti-PD1 antibody, with isatuximab, an anti-CD38 antibody, in relapsed or refractory extranodal NK/T-cell lymphoma (R/R ENKTL). The hypothesis was that CD38 blockade could enhance the antitumor activity of PD1 inhibitors. Eligible patients received cemiplimab (250 mg on days 1 and 15) and isatuximab (10 mg/kg on days 2 and 16) intravenously every four weeks for six cycles.

Decoy receptor 3 (DcR3), a soluble receptor in the tumor necrosis factor receptor superfamily, regulates the functions of monocytes, macrophages, dendritic cells, and T cells. Previous studies have demonstrated that DcR3 suppresses B cell proliferation in vitro and ameliorates autoimmune diseases in animal models; however, whether and how DcR3 regulates antibody production is unclear. Using a DcR3 transgenic mouse model, we found that DcR3 impaired the T cell-dependent antigen-stimulated antibody response.

Several vaccines and immunization strategies, including inactivated vaccines, have proven effective in eliciting antibodies against severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), providing an opportunity to characterize the antibody response. In this study, we investigated the monoclonal antibody responses elicited by wild-type SARS-CoV-2 inactivated vaccination compared to those elicited by natural infection and mRNA vaccination. The analysis showed that antibodies encoded by biased germline genes were shared between SARS-CoV-2 vaccinated and naturally infected individuals.

Antigen-experienced memory B-cells (MBC) are endowed with enhanced functional properties compared to naïve B cells and play an important role in the humoral response. However, the epigenetic enzymes and programs that govern their rapid differentiation are incompletely understood. Here, the role of the histone H3 lysine 27 methyltransferase EZH2 in the formation of MBC in response to an influenza infection was determined in Mus musculus.

Mucormycosis is a fungal infection caused by Mucorales fungi that cause severe disease and fatality, especially in immunocompromised individuals. Although vaccines and immunotherapeutics have been successful in combating viral and bacterial infections, approved antifungal immunotherapies are yet to be realized. To address this gap, monoclonal antibodies targeting invasive fungal infections have emerged as a promising approach, particularly for immunocompromised patients who are unlikely to maximally benefit from vaccines.
