Vaccine Detail

Nelipepimut-S Plus GM-CSF Vaccine
Vaccine Information
  • Vaccine Name: Nelipepimut-S Plus GM-CSF Vaccine
  • Target Pathogen: Cancer
  • Target Disease: Cancer
  • Vaccine Ontology ID: VO_0007009
  • Type: Multipeptide vaccine
  • Status: Clinical trial
  • Host Species for Licensed Use: Human
  • Host Species as Laboratory Animal Model: Human
  • Antigen: ERBB2
  • ERBB2 gene engineering:
  • Preparation: The vaccine comprised of nelipiminut-S and the hematopoietic growth factor, granulocyte–macrophage colony-stimulating factor (Schneble et al., 2014).
  • Description: This is for Breast Cancer (NCT02636582). A cancer peptide vaccine comprised of a human leukocyte antigen (HLA) A2/A3 restricted HER2/neu (ERBB2) peptide from the extracellular domain of the HER2 protein (E75 peptide) and combined with the immunoadjuvant granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF), with potential immunomodulating and antineoplastic activity. Upon intradermal injection, nelipepimut-S plus GM-CSF vaccine may induce a specific cytotoxic T-lymphocyte (CTL) response against HER2/neu-expressing tumor cell types. HER2/neu, a tumor-associated antigen and a member of the epidermal growth factor receptor family of tyrosine kinases, is overexpressed in various tumor cell types. GM-CSF potentiates the antitumor immune response (Chick et al., 2021; NCIT_C99228).
