Vaccine Detail

Recombinant Saccharomyces Cerevisia-CEA(610D)-Expressing Vaccine GI-6207
Vaccine Information
  • Vaccine Name: Recombinant Saccharomyces Cerevisia-CEA(610D)-Expressing Vaccine GI-6207
  • Target Pathogen: Cancer
  • Target Disease: Cancer
  • Vaccine Ontology ID: VO_0007038
  • Type: Inactivated or ""killed"" vaccine
  • Status: Clinical trial
  • Host Species for Licensed Use: Human
  • Host Species as Laboratory Animal Model: Human
  • CEACAM5 (CEA) gene engineering:
  • Preparation: Recombinant S. cerevisiae was designed to express carcinoembryonic antigen (Bernstein et al., 2008).
  • Description: This is for Various Cancers (NCT00924092). A whole, heat-killed, recombinant Saccharomyces cerevisiae yeast-based vaccine genetically altered to express the carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) peptide 610D with potential immunostimulating and antineoplastic activities. Upon administration, recombinant Saccharomyces cerevisia-CEA(610D) vaccine GI-6207 may stimulate a host cytotoxic T-lymphocyte (CTL) response against CEA-expressing tumor cells, which may result in tumor cell lysis. CEA, a tumor associated antigen, is overexpressed on a wide variety of human cancer cells including colorectal, gastric, lung, breast and pancreatic cancer cells. CEA 610D encodes for 9 amino acids (605-613) in which aspartate is substituted for asparagine at position 610 (610D) in order to strengthen the induction of the CTL response against CEA-expressing tumor cells (Berinstein et al., 2012; NCIT_C82371).
