Study Introduction. Diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) is a type of aggressive and the most common form of non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL), accounting for 40% of lymphomas among adults. The median age at diagnosis of DLBCL is around 60 years, but it also occurs in children. The incidence of NHL and DLBCL, ranked fifth of all cancer types in the United States, has increased by at least 100% over the last twenty years. A majority of DLBCL patients will survive less than five years with standard CHOP chemotherapy (cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine and prednisone), whereas the addition of Rituxan (R-CHOP) significantly improves clinical outcomes. Most common chromsome anomalies associated with DLBCL include but not limited to t(3;Var)(q27;Var) with BCL6-rearrangement, t(14;18)(q32;q21) with BCL2-rearrangement, t(8;14)(q24;q32) with MYC-rearrangement, or even a combination of BCL6, MYC and/or BCL2 rearrangements. We and others have shown that gene expresison profiling and mutation profile have significant effects on understanding the pathogenesis of DLBCL. Application of gene expression profiling to lymphoma was one of the first demonstrations of the power of the technique. Activated B-Cell (ABC) and Germinal Center B-cell (GCB) subsets of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) were clearly identified based on gene expression profiling showing both intrinsic biology that had differential behavior and prognosis. Later studies have confirmed that the biologic subsets of DLBCL have prognostic value independent of IPI. To meet this need, a ~20-gene expression classifier has been developed to accurately assess the prognosis of DLBCL to be validated in the current project. The present project also initiates a large-scale attempt to identify novel genetic and epigenetic alterations and clinical outcome in DLBCL patients. Specifically, we will analyze the distribution of the genetic and epigenetic alteration signature defined by the HTG analysis of xxXXX in 450 DLBCL patients with respect to known clinicopathological features such as patient demographics and pathological subtypes. We will also correlate a ~20-gene signature (prognostic ABC/GCB) with the clinical outcomes of DLBCL patients treated with R-CHOP regimen in a further 400-500 patients. Additional correlations between the genetic and epigenetic signature with the distribution profile of any protein expression of unique gene products by immunohistochemistry will be performed. We hypotheisize that the analysis will provide c...

Study Introduction. Xenetic Biosciences is developing a CAR T platform (termed ‘XCART’) for the treatment of certain non-Hodgkin Lymphoma (NHL) subtypes, by targeting a patient- and tumor- specific lymphoma neoantigen, namely the unique B-cell receptor (BCR) displayed by a given malignant B-cell clone. XCART will utilize a universal ‘CAR cassette’, into which neoantigen-specific, antigen-binding domains (ABDs) can be inserted to create a patient-specific CAR. The resulting CAR construct can then be engineered into an autologous CAR T product for treatment of the patient’s lymphoma. [***] EXHIBIT B: BUDGET Xenetic Biosciences, Inc.

  • Introduction and Purpose The Kentucky Community and Technical College System (KCTCS) and the Kentucky Department of Education (KDE) mutually support the attainment of dual credit coursework for high school students. This Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) underscores the dedication of both agencies to improving the educational attainment of Kentucky citizens and reinforces the collaboration necessary to achieve this level of success. Improving the educational attainment of Kentucky citizens is key to ensuring the State’s long-term success. The State commits significant resources across the educational spectrum to develop and implement strategies to address this critical issue. Providing secondary students dual credit opportunities is a proven educational strategy with the capacity to complement and maximize the chances of success of our educational initiatives. Effective dual credit systems have impacts both at the secondary and postsecondary levels and provide the opportunity for collaboration. Participants are expected to know and follow current and future versions of Dual Credit Policies established by the Kentucky Council on Postsecondary Education found at: xxxx://xxx.xx.xxx/policies/dualcredit.html. Should policies change during the academic year, KCTCS may request support in meeting those changes outside the scope of this document.

  • Approval Process Tenant shall notify Landlord whether it approves of the submitted working drawings within three business days after Landlord’s submission thereof. If Tenant disapproves of such working drawings, then Tenant shall notify Landlord thereof specifying in reasonable detail the reasons for such disapproval, in which case Landlord shall, within five business days after such notice, revise such working drawings in accordance with Tenant’s objections and submit the revised working drawings to Tenant for its review and approval. Tenant shall notify Landlord in writing whether it approves of the resubmitted working drawings within one business day after its receipt thereof. This process shall be repeated until the working drawings have been finally approved by Landlord and Tenant. If Tenant fails to notify Landlord that it disapproves of the initial working drawings within three business days (or, in the case of resubmitted working drawings, within one business day) after the submission thereof, then Tenant shall be deemed to have approved the working drawings in question. Any delay caused by Tenant’s unreasonable withholding of its consent or delay in giving its written approval as to such working drawings shall constitute a Tenant Delay Day (defined below). If the working drawings are not fully approved (or deemed approved) by both Landlord and Tenant by the 15th business day after the delivery of the initial draft thereof to Tenant, then each day after such time period that such working drawings are not fully approved (or deemed approved) by both Landlord and Tenant shall constitute a Tenant Delay Day.
