Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20150313978Novel MHC-Independent Tumor-Associated Antigens - The present invention relates to novel tumor-associated antigens, which elicit independently from a presentation via MHC a CD8-positive T-cell response. GM-CSF-Receptor alpha chain (CSF2RA) and Tyrosinase-related protein 2 (TRP-2) were found to be targets of CD8-positive T-cell clones which could detect the proteins on the surface of HLA I negative melanoma cells. Thus, the invention provides proteins, protein fragments and polypeptides of the novel antigens for use in medicine, for example for the treatment, diagnosis and prevention of a tumor disease. Furthermore provided are nucleic acids expressing the antigens of the invention, binding agents specific for the antigens of the invention, such as T-cell receptor chains and isolated T cells which are reactive against the antigens of the invention or which express the T-cell receptors of the invention. The invention further pertains to pharmaceutical compositions, especially vaccine compositions, comprising the antigens, nucleic acids, binding agents or T cells in accordance with the invention, and methods for the generation of T cells, which are specifically reactive to the antigens of the invention in an MHC-independent manner.11-05-2015

20120278487SYSTEM AND METHOD OF HANDLING REQUESTS IN A MULTI-HOMED REVERSE PROXY - Cloud service providers provide resources on a plurality of hosts some of which furthermore reside in different domains. An enhanced Reverse Proxy server is described which is configured to access hosts of multiple domains, handling client requests transparently. A request from a client to any of the supported service provider target hosts is addressed to a path in the domain of the reverse proxy server, and is formatted to include the target host domain coded as a short form name which is inserted in the path component of the request. Arguments in JavaScript calls of the response from the target host to the client are modified to ensure that future JavaScript operations generate similarly formatted requests. The enhanced Reverse Proxy translates Universal Resource Locators (URLs) of traffic between hosts of the service provider and the client in both directions accordingly.11-01-2012
20120278872SYSTEM AND METHOD OF FEDERATED AUTHENTICATION WITH REVERSE PROXY - A Security Assertion Markup Language (SAML) conversation is intercepted in an enhanced Reverse Proxy server computer located in the path between a user and a server computer that provide cloud application services to the user. During authentication, the SAML assertion signature is modified in the enhanced Reverse Proxy such that the enhanced Reverse Proxy and the user can share an encryption key. The modified assertion signature permits a common session key to be shared by the enhanced Reverse Proxy and a targeted application in the server, thus enabling the user to be authenticated, and subsequently to communicate via the enhanced Reverse Proxy in a secure session with an application in the server.11-01-2012
20120278897SYSTEM AND METHOD OF SORT-ORDER PRESERVING TOKENIZATION - An intercepting proxy server processes traffic between an enterprise user and a cloud application. The intercepting proxy server provides interception of real data elements in communications from the enterprise to the cloud and replacing them with obfuscating tokens. Tokens included in results returned from the cloud, are intercepted by the intercepting proxy server, and replaced with the corresponding real data elements. In order for the sort order of the tokens to correspond to the sort order of the corresponding real data elements, a sort order preserving data compression is performed on parts of the real data elements, and the compressed values concatenated with the obfuscated tokens, thus producing sortable tokens which, even though they are obfuscated, appear in the correct sort order in the cloud application.11-01-2012
