摘要:
The invention relates to methods of inducing an anti-tumor immunity and/or inducing an immune responses to p53 in mammals. The methods comprise administering to a mammal an effective amount of at least one immunogen selected from the group consisting of: (i) a peptide based on a CDR of the heavy or light chain of an anti-p53 mAb, which peptide is capable of eliciting antibodies to p53; and (ii) a DNA molecule coding for the variable (V) region of an anti-p53 mAb in a suitable gene delivery vehicle. Preferably the immunogen is administered in the form of a pharmaceutical composition. Preferably the peptide is 7 to 30 amino acid residues in length and contains a sequence of the CDR2 or CDR3 of the heavy chain, or of the CDR3 of the light chain of an anti-p53 mAb.

The invention relates to the use of an immunogen selected from the group consisting of(i) an anti-p53 mAb;(ii) a fragment of an anti-p53 mAb;(iii) a peptide based on a CDR of the heavy or light chain of an anti-p53 mAb, which peptide is capable of eliciting antibodies to p53; and(iv) a DNA molecule coding for the variable (V) region of an anti-p53 mAb in a suitable gene delivery vehicle,for the preparation of a pharmaceutical composition useful for induction of anti-tumor immunity in mammals, for activating an enhanced immune response to a p53 molecule in mammals, and/or for induction of immune responses to mutated and wild-type forms of a p53 in mammals. The use of anti-p53 mAbs and novel peptides based on the CDR2 and CDR3 of the heavy chains and CDR3 of the light chains of different anti-p53 mAbs are disclosed.

摘要:
The present invention provides improved vaccines comprising an isolated viral antigenic peptide and a synthetic peptide derived from a T cell epitope of HSP60. The invention includes mixtures where the peptide serves as an adjuvant as well as conjugates where the peptide is covalently linked to the viral antigen. The known synthetic peptide carrier, p458, provides significantly improved immunogenicity for synthetic viral epitopes and analogs. Ec27 is a novel peptide derived from HSP60 which increases the immunogenicity substantially of the viral antigen both as a mixture or a covalent conjugate. Some of the isolated viral epitopes are novel and are claimed for diagnostic as well as therapeutic or prophylactic uses.
