The present invention provides methods and compositions designed for the treatment, management, and/or amelioration of an infection, in particular an intracellular pathogen infection, such as a viral, bacterial, protozoa or fungal infection. In particular, the present invention provides methods for treating, managing, preventing and/or ameliorating an infection where the expression of EphA2 is upregulated in infected cells (e.g., infected epithelial cells), said methods comprising administering to a subject an effective amount of one or more EphA2/EphrinAl Modulators. In accordance with the present invention, such methods may also comprise the administration of one or more therapies other than an EphA2/EphrinAl Modulator. The present invention also provides pharmaceutical compositions comprising EphA2/EphrinAl Modulators, and optionally, one or more prophylactic or therapeutic agents other than an EphA2/EphrinAl Modulator, and the use of such compositions in the treating, management, prevention and/or amelioration of an infection. Further provided by the invention are articles of manufacture and kits comprising an EphA2/EphrinAl Modulator of the invention, and, optionally, other prophylactic or therapeutic agents (e.g., immunomodulatory agents, anti- viral agents, anti-inflammatory agents, anti-bacterial agents, anti-fungal agents, etc.).

L'invention concerne des méthodes et des compositions pour le traitement, la gestion et/ou l'amélioration d'une infection, notamment une infection pathogène intracellulaire telle qu'une infection provoquée par un virus, une bactérie, un protozoaire ou un champignon. L'invention concerne en particulier des méthodes pour traiter, gérer, prévenir et/ou améliorer une infection où l'expression de EphA2 est régulée vers le haut dans des cellules infectées (par ex., des cellules épithéliales infectées). Ces méthodes consistent à administrer à un sujet une quantité suffisante d'un ou de plusieurs modulateurs de EphA2/EphrinA1. Les méthodes de l'invention consistent également à administrer un ou plusieurs agents thérapeutiques autres qu'un modulateur de EphA2/EphrinAl. La présente invention porte également sur des compositions pharmaceutiques contenant des modulateurs de EphA2/EphrinAl et éventuellement un ou plusieurs agents prophylactiques ou thérapeutiques autres qu'un modulateur de EphA2/EphrinAl, ainsi que sur l'utilisation de telles compositions pour traiter, gérer, prévenir et/ou améliorer une infection. L'invention concerne aussi des articles manufacturés et des kits comportant un modulateur de EphA2/EphrinAl selon l'invention, et éventuellement d'autres agents prophylactiques ou thérapeutiques (par ex., des agents immunomodulateurs, antiviraux, anti-inflammatoires, antibactériens, antifongiques, etc.).
