The present invention relates to peptides, nucleic acids and cells for use in immunotherapeutic methods. In particular, the present invention relates to the immunotherapy of cancer. The present invention furthermore relates to tumor-associated cytotoxic T cell (CTL) peptide epitopes, alone or in combination with other tumor-associated peptides that serve as active pharmaceutical ingredients of vaccine compositions that stimulate anti-tumor immune responses. The present invention relates to more than 70 novel peptide sequences and their variants derived from HLA class I and HLA class II molecules of human tumor cells that can be used in vaccine compositions for eliciting anti-tumor immune responses.
本发明涉及用于免疫治疗方法的肽、核酸和细胞。具体来说,本发明涉及癌症的免疫疗法。此外,本发明还涉及肿瘤相关的细胞毒性T细胞(CTL)肽表位,单独或与其他肿瘤相关肽结合,作为刺激抗肿瘤免疫反应的疫苗组成的活性药用成分。本发明涉及从人类肿瘤细胞的H
LA-I类和H
LA-II类分子中衍生的70多个新肽序列及其变体,可用于疫苗组成中,用于引发抗肿瘤免疫反应。
