Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The applicants have performed the cocktail peptide cancer vaccine therapy Phase II clinical trial for the patients with the advanced biliary tract cancer that are resistant to current therapy. One of the cocktail peptide, OCV-105 to use for this clinical study was identified as a gene frequently expressed in pancreatic cancer and cholangiocarcinoma tissues by the comprehensive genome information by the cDNA microarray, and is the HLA-A2402-restricted epitope peptide which can induce CTL. Other two, elpamotide and OCV-101 to use in this trial are HLA-A-restricted epitope peptides derived from VEGFR1, 2 and are a receptor of VEGF-A. The induction of CTL targeting this receptor might be expected to inhibit the growth and metastasis of cancer cell.
