Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2014/106886
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
Peptide vaccines against cancer are described herein. In particular, isolated epitope peptides derived from the CDCA5 that elicit CTLs and thus are suitable for use in the context of cancer immunotherapy are provided. Further provided are polynucleotides encoding such peptides as well as pharmaceutical compositions that include any such peptides or polynucleotides as active agents. Antigen-presenting cells with CTL inducibility and CTLs that target such peptides, as well as methods for inducing the antigen-presenting cell, or CTL are also provided. Furthermore, the present invention provides methods for the treatment and/or prophylaxis (i.e., prevention) of cancers (tumors), and/or the prevention of a metastatic or postoperative recurrence thereof, as well as methods for inducing CTLs, methods for inducing anti-tumor immunity, using the epitope peptides derived from CDCA5, polynucleotides encoding the peptides, or antigen-presenting cells presenting the peptides, or the pharmaceutical compositions of the present invention.
