摘要:
The present invention relates to tumor associated antigen (TAA) peptides and to use of same, of polynucleotides encoding same and of cells presenting same as anti-tumor vaccines. More particularly, the present invention relates to tumor associated antigen peptides derived from Uroplakin Ia, Ib, II and III, Prostate specific antigen (PSA), Prostate acid phosphatase (PAP) and Prostate specific membrane antigen (PSMA), BA-46 (Lactadherin), Mucin (MUC-1), and Teratocarcinoma-derived growth factor (CRIPTO-1) and the use of same as anti-tumor vaccines to prevent or cure bladder, prostate, breast or other cancers, carcinomas in particular. Most particularly, the present invention relates to tumor associated antigen peptides which are presentable to the immune system by HLA-A2 molecules.
摘要:
The invention relates to colon and prostate tumor associated antigen peptides obtainable from prostate specific G protein-coupled receptor (PSGR), six-transmembrane epithelial antigen of prostate (STEAP) and proteins encoded by genes found overexpressed in colon carcinoma cells, such as human 1-8D interferon induced transmembrane protein 2. The invention further relates to a polynucleotide encoding the tumor associated antigen peptides and to pharmaceutical compositions, which are preferably anti-tumor vaccine compositions, containing a tumor associated antigen, at least one tumor associated antigen peptide thereof, or encoding polynucleotide thereof as an active ingredient. The pharmaceutical compositions can be administered to a patient in need thereof to treat or inhibit the development of colon or prostate cancer.

摘要:
A method of inhibiting growth of, reducing or eliminating a cell population of a subject in need thereof is disclosed. The method comprises (a) thermally, mechanically and/or chemically damaging antigen-bearing cells which comprise at least one antigen characterizing cells of the cell population, with the proviso that the chemically damaging of the antigen-bearing cells is not predominantly effected using one or more antineoplastic agents, thereby generating immunogenic cells; and (b) introducing in the subject a cell aggregate which comprises the immunogenic cells and added antigen-presenting cells, thereby inducing an immune response for inhibiting growth of, reducing or eliminating the cell population of the subject.

摘要:
The present invention relates to cancer immunotherapy, specifically to allogeneic tumor cell vaccines. According to some embodiments, the invention provides novel cell lines useful as therapeutic cell vaccine compositions. The invention further provides advantageous screening methods and means for identifying patients amenable for treatment with partially Human Leukocyte Antigen (HLA) matched allogeneic cell vaccines. Therapeutic compositions and methods for use in proliferative disorders are further provided.
摘要:
The invention relates to a method for the isolation of T cell lymphocyte, preferably, CD8+ cytotoxic T lymphocyte, which is capable of specifically recognizing an antigen related to a pathologic disorder. The method of the invention is base on ability of the CTL's to capture membrane from labeled target cells. The invention further provides compositions comprising said specific lymphocytes and methods for the treatment of said pathologic disorder using the specific lymphocytes isolated and prepared by the method of the invention.
