摘要:
This invention uses our knowledge of the mechanisms by which antigen is recognized by T cells to identify and prepare p53 epitopes, and to develop epitope-based vaccines directed towards p53-bearing tumors. More specifically, this application communicates our discovery of pharmaceutical compositions and methods of use in the prevention and treatment of cancer.

This invention uses our knowledge of the mechanisms by which antigen is recognized by T cells to identify and prepare prostate cancer-associated antigen epitopes, and to develop epitope-based vaccines directed towards prostate tumors. More specifically, this application communicates our discovery of pharmaceutical compositions and methods of use in the prevention and treatment of cancer.
摘要:
A composition or vaccine composition comprising at least one peptide that has less than 600 contiguous amino acids having 100% identity to a native sequence of CEA, HER2/neu, MAGE2, MAGE3, or p53, the peptide further comprising at least one epitope selected from Table 6.
摘要:
Heteroclitic analogs of class I epitopes are prepared by providing conservative, semi-conservative, or non-conservative amino acid substitutions at positions 3 and/or 4 and/or 5 and/or 6 and/or 7 and/or 8 and/or 9 and/or 10 of these epitopes. The analogs are useful in eliciting immune responses with respect to the corresponding wild-type epitopes.
