Abstract
Description
Immunotherapy against neuronal and brain tumorsBackground of the InventionThe present invention relates to the field of cancer immunotherapy.Cancer is a major global health problem and is one of the leading causes of death worldwide. Traditional cancer treatments, such as surgery, chemotherapy, and radiation therapy, have limited efficacy and can cause significant side effects. Immunotherapy, which involves harnessing the power of the immune system to target cancer cells, has emerged as a promising new approach for the treatment of cancer. Cancer immunotherapy exploits the fact that cancer cells often present molecules on their surface that can be detected by the immune system, known as tumour antigens, which are often proteins or other macromolecules. However, identifying tumour antigen combinations that are suitable for immunotherapy of cancer remains an ongoing challenge.In recent years, nucleic acid, such as RNA, has emerged as a promising therapeutic tool for the treatment of various diseases, as it can be used to direct the production of proteins that can inhibit or reduce the growth or survival of cancer cells. The advantages of using RNA include transient expression and its nontransforming character - RNA does not need to enter the nucleus in order to be expressed and moreover cannot integrate into the host genome, thereby eliminating the risk of oncogenesis. Accordingly, nucleic acid, such as RNA, may represent a promising class of molecules for use in immunotherapy of tumour diseases.Neuronal and brain tumours such glioblastomas (GBM) or astrocytoma belong to the tumour types with the highest lethal rates. Most tumour cells of GBM or astrocytoma are the most undifferentiated ones among brain tumours. GBM cells have high potential of migration and proliferation and are highly invasive, leading to very poor prognosis. GBM lead to death due to rapid, aggressive, and infiltrative growth in the brain. GBM or astrocytoma are relatively resistant to radiation and chemotherapy, and, therefore, post-treatment recurrence rates are high. In addition, the immune response to the neoplastic cells is rather ineffective in completely eradicating all neoplastic cells following resection and radiation therapy. Accordingly, there is an urgent need for an immunotherapy against neuronal and brain tumours such as GBM or astrocytomas.The object of the present invention is to provide novel compounds, which are suitable for use in cancer immunotherapy, in particular in the treatment or prevention of glioblastoma or astrocytoma.The object as defined above is solved by the subject-matter of the present invention as defined herein. In particular, the inventors surprisingly found that an artificial nucleic acid, preferably an mRNA, encoding thespecific combination of antigenic peptides or proteins is effective in the treatment or prevention of a tumour or cancer disease, in particular in the treatment or prevention of glioblastoma or astrocytoma.Short Description of the InventionThe present invention provides a novel artificial nucleic acid, which is suitable for use in cancer immunotherapy. More specifically, the invention concerns an artificial nucleic acid comprising at least one coding sequence, wherein the at least one coding sequence encodes at least one polypeptide or protein, the at least one polypeptide or protein comprising at least one antigenic peptide or protein from each of the tumour-associated antigens Brevican core protein (BCAN), Neuroligin-4, X-linked (NLGNX4), Receptortype tyrosine-protein phosphatase zeta (PTPRZ1) and Baculoviral IAP repeat-containing protein 5 (BIRC5) or a variant of each of these. The invention further relates to a set of artificial nucleic acids, wherein at least two artificial nucleic acids together encode said combination of antigenic peptides or proteins. Moreover, the invention provides a composition, preferably a pharmaceutical composition, comprising the artificial nucleic acid or the artificial nucleic acid set. In addition, the invention is directed to a combination of pharmaceutical compositions, wherein each of the pharmaceutical compositions comprises at least one artificial nucleic acid and wherein the artificial nucleic acids of the pharmaceutical compositions of the combination together encode the combination of antigenic peptides or proteins. Furthermore, the invention provides a kit or kit of parts comprising the artificial nucleic acid, the artificial nucleic acid set, the (pharmaceutical) composition or the combination of (pharmaceutical) compositions as described herein. Also provided herein is the artificial nucleic acid, the artificial nucleic acid set, the (pharmaceutical) composition or the combination of (pharmaceutical) compositions as described herein for use as a medicament, preferably in the treatment or prevention of a tumor or cancer disease, more preferably in the treatment or prevention of glioblastoma or astrocytoma.DefinitionsFor the sake of clarity and readability the following definitions are provided. Any technical feature mentioned for these definitions may be read on each and every embodiment of the invention. Additional definitions and explanations may be specifically provided in the context of the embodiments described herein.Percentages in the context of numbers should be understood as relative to the total number of the respective items. In other cases, and unless the context dictates otherwise, percentages should be understood as percentages by weight (wt.-%).About: The term “about” is used when determinants or values do not need to be identical, i.e. 100% the same. Accordingly, “about” means, that a determinant or value may diverge by 1 % to 20%, preferably by 1 % to 10%. Preferably, “about” means, that a determinant or value may diverge by + / -1 %, + / -2%, + / -3%, + / -4%, + / -5%, + / -6%, + / -7%, + / -8%, + / -9%, + / -10%.Cationic: The term “cationic” means that the respective structure bears a positive charge, either permanently or not permanently, for example in response to certain conditions such as pH. Thus, the term “cationic” covers both “permanently cationic” and “cationisable”. The term “permanently cationic” means,e.g., that the respective compound, or group, or atom, is positively charged at any pH value or hydrogen ion activity of its environment. Typically, the positive charge results from the presence of a quaternary nitrogen atom.The term “cationisable” as used herein means that a compound or group or atom, is positively charged at a lower pH and uncharged at a higher pH of its environment. Also in non-aqueous environments where no pH value can be determined, a cationisable compound, group or atom is positively charged at a high hydrogen ion concentration and uncharged at a low concentration or activity of hydrogen ions. It depends on the individual properties of the cationisable or polycationisable compound, in particular the pKa of the respective cationisable group or atom, at which pH or hydrogen ion concentration it is charged or uncharged. In diluted aqueous environments, the fraction of cationisable compounds, groups or atoms bearing a positive charge may be estimated using the so-called Henderson-Hasselbalch equation which is well-known to a person skilled in the art. E.g., in some embodiments, if a compound or moiety is cationisable, it is preferred that it is positively charged at a pH value of about 1 to 9, preferably 4 to 9, 5 to 8 or even 6 to 8, more preferably of a pH value of or below 9, of or below 8, of or below 7, most preferably at physiological pH values, e.g. about 7.3 to 7.4, i.e. under physiological conditions, particularly under physiological salt conditions. In other embodiments, it is preferred that the cationisable compound or moiety is predominantly neutral at physiological pH values, e.g. about 7.0-7.4, but becomes positively charged at lower pH values. In some embodiments, the preferred range of pKa for the cationisable compound or moiety is about 5 to about 7.cds The terms “coding sequence” or “coding region” and the corresponding abbreviation “cds” as used herein is intended to refer to a sequence of several nucleotide triplets, which may be translated into a peptide or protein. A coding sequence in the context of the present invention may be a DNA or RNA sequence consisting of a number of nucleotides that may be divided by three, which typically starts with a start codon and which preferably terminates with a stop codon. Suitably in the context of the invention, the coding sequence encodes at least one tumour antigen, accordingly, the coding sequence provides the information that is translated into least one tumour antigen as defined herein.Derived from: The term “derived from” as used herein in the context of a nucleic acid e. for a nucleic acid“derived from” (another) nucleic acid, means that the nucleic acid, which is derived from (another) nucleic acid, shares e.g. at least 60%, 70%, 80%, 81 %, 82%, 83%, 84%, 85%, 86%, 87%, 88%, 89%, 90%, 91 %, 92%, 93%, 94%, 95%, 96%, 97%, 98%, or 99% sequence identity or are identical with the nucleic acid from which it is derived. The skilled person is aware that sequence identity is typically calculated for the same types of nucleic acids, i.e. for DNA sequences or for RNA sequences. Thus, it is understood, if a DNA is “derived from” an RNA or if an RNA is “derived from” a DNA, in a first step the RNA sequence is converted into the corresponding DNA sequence (in particular by replacing the uracils (U) by thymidines (T) throughout the sequence) or, vice versa, the DNA sequence is converted into the corresponding RNA sequence (in particular by replacing the T by U throughout the sequence). Thereafter, the sequence identity of the DNA sequences or the sequence identity of the RNA sequences is determined. Preferably, a nucleic acid “derived from” a nucleic acid also refers to nucleic acid, which is modified in comparison to the nucleicacid from which it is derived, e.g. in order to increase RNA stability even further and / or to prolong and / or increase protein production. In the context of amino acid sequences the term “derived from” means that the amino acid sequence, which is derived from (another) amino acid sequence, shares e.g. at least 60%, 70%, 75%, 80%, 81 %, 82%, 83%, 84%, 85%, 86%, 87%, 88%, 89%, 90%, 91 %, 92%, 93%, 94%, 95%, 96%, 97%, 98%, or 99% sequence identity or are identical with the amino acid sequence from which it is derived.: The term “epitope as used herein will be recognized and understood by the person of ordinary skill in the art, and is e.g. intended to refer to T cell epitopes and B cell epitopes. T cell epitopes are typically parts of the antigenic peptides or proteins, such as the at least one antigenic peptide or protein encoded by the artificial nucleic acid described herein, and may comprise fragments of said antigenic peptide or protein, preferably having a length of about 6 to about 20 or even more amino acids, e.g. fragments as processed and presented by MHC class I molecules, preferably having a length of about 8 to about 11 amino acids, e.g. 8, 9, 10, or 11 (or even 12 amino acids), or fragments as processed and presented by MHC class II molecules, preferably having a length of about 13 to about 20 or even more amino acids. These fragments are typically recognized by T cells in form of a complex consisting of the peptide fragment and an MHC molecule, i.e. the fragments are typically not recognized in their native form. As used herein, the term “T-cell epitope” also refers to a predicted T-cell epitope, e.g. a T-cell epitope as predicted by an algorithm. Suitable algorithms are known in the art and include software (for example, NetMHCpan 4.1), which may be used for MHC-I binding predictions. B cell epitopes are typically fragments located on the outer surface of (native) protein or peptide antigens, preferably having 5 to 15 amino acids, more preferably having 5 to 12 amino acids, even more preferably having 6 to 9 amino acids, which may be recognized by antibodies, i.e. in their native form. Such epitopes of proteins or peptides may furthermore be selected from any of the herein mentioned variants of such proteins or peptides. In this context epitopes can be conformational or discontinuous epitopes which are composed of segments of the proteins or peptides as defined herein that are discontinuous in the amino acid sequence of the proteins or peptides as defined herein but are brought together in the three-dimensional structure or continuous or linear epitopes which are composed of a single polypeptide chain.The term “T-cell epitope” refers to a part or fragment of a protein or antigen that is recognized by a T cell when presented in the context of major histocompatibility complex (MHC) molecules, including MHC class I and MHC class II molecules and relating to a complex of genes which is present in all vertebrates. MHC proteins or molecules are important for signalling between lymphocytes and antigen presenting cells or diseased cells in immune reactions, wherein the MHC proteins or molecules bind peptide epitopes and present them for recognition by T-cell receptors on T cells. The proteins encoded by the MHC are expressed on the surface of cells, and display both self-antigens (peptide fragments from the cell itself) and non-self- antigens (e.g., fragments of invading microorganisms) to a T cell. In the case of class I MHC / peptide complexes, the binding peptides (MHC class I ligands) are typically about 8 to about 11 amino acids long although longer or shorter peptides may be effective. In the case of class II MHC / peptide complexes, the binding peptides (MHC class II ligands) are typically about 10 to about 25 amino acids long and are in particular about 13 to about 18 amino acids long, whereas also longer and shorter peptides may be effective.The term “fragment” as used herein in the context of a nucleic acid sequence (e.g. RNA or aDNA) or an amino acid sequence may typically be a shorter portion of a full-length sequence of e.g. a nucleic acid sequence or an amino acid sequence. Accordingly, a fragment typically consists of a sequence that is identical to the corresponding stretch within the full-length sequence. A preferred fragment of a sequence in the context of the present invention, consists of a continuous stretch of entities, such as nucleotides or amino acids corresponding to a continuous stretch of entities in the molecule the fragment is derived from, which represents at least 50% , 60%, 70%, 80%, or 90% of the total full-length molecule from which the fragment is derived. The term “fragment” as used throughout the specification in the context of proteins or peptides may, typically, comprise a sequence of a protein or peptide as defined herein, which is, with regard to its amino acid sequence, N-terminally and / or C-terminally truncated compared to the amino acid sequence of the original protein. The term “fragment” as used throughout the specification in the context of RNA sequences may, typically, comprise an RNA sequence that is 5’-terminally and / or 3’- terminally truncated compared to the reference RNA sequence. Such truncation may thus occur either on the amino acid level or correspondingly on the nucleic acid level. A sequence identity with respect to such a fragment as defined herein may therefore preferably refer to the entire protein or peptide as defined herein or to the entire (coding) nucleic acid molecule of such a protein or peptide.The term “identity” as used herein in the context of a nucleic acid sequence or an amino acid sequence will be recognized and understood by the person of ordinary skill in the art, and is e.g. intended to refer to the percentage to which two sequences are identical. To determine the percentage to which two sequences are identical, e.g. nucleic acid sequences or amino acid (aa) sequences, preferably the aa sequences encoded by the nucleic acid sequence as defined herein or the aa sequences themselves, the sequences can be aligned in order to be subsequently compared to one another. Therefore, e.g. a position of a first sequence may be compared with the corresponding position of the second sequence. If a position in the first sequence is occupied by the same residue as is the case at a position in the second sequence, the two sequences are identical at this position. If this is not the case, the sequences differ at this position. If insertions occur in the second sequence in comparison to the first sequence, gaps can be inserted into the first sequence to allow a further alignment. If deletions occur in the second sequence in comparison to the first sequence, gaps can be inserted into the second sequence to allow a further alignment. The percentage to which two sequences are identical is then a function of the number of identical positions divided by the total number of positions including those positions which are only occupied in one sequence. The percentage to which two sequences are identical can be determined using an algorithm, e.g. an algorithm integrated in the BLAST program.ic: The terms “immunogen or “immunogenic” will be recognized and understood by the person of ordinary skill in the art, and are e.g. intended to refer to a compound that is able to stimulate / induce an immune response. Preferably, an immunogen is a peptide, polypeptide, or protein.Nucleic acid nucleic acid molecule The terms “nucleic acid” or “nucleic acid molecule” will be recognized and understood by the person of ordinary skill in the art. The term “nucleic acid” or “nucleic acid molecule”as used herein preferably refers to DNA (molecules) or RNA (molecules). It is preferably used synonymously with the term polynucleotide. Preferably, a nucleic acid or a nucleic acid molecule is a polymer comprising or consisting of nucleotide monomers, which are covalently linked to each other by phosphodiester-bonds of a sugar / phosphate-backbone. The term “nucleic acid molecule” also encompasses modified nucleic acid molecules, such as base-modified, sugar-modified, or backbone- modified DNA or RNA molecules as defined herein.Nucleic acid: The terms “nucleic acid sequence”, “DNA sequence”, “RNA sequence” will be recognized and understood by the person of ordinary skill in the art, and e.g. refer to a particular and individual order of the succession of its nucleotides.In the context of the invention, the term “nucleic acid species” is not restricted to mean one single molecule but is understood to comprise an ensemble of essentially identical nucleic acid molecules. Accordingly, it may relate to a plurality of essentially identical nucleic acid molecules. In the context of the invention the term “RNA species” is not restricted to mean one single molecule but is understood to comprise an ensemble of essentially identical RNA molecules. Accordingly, it may relate to a plurality of essentially identical RNA molecules.RNA: The term “RNA” is the usual abbreviation for ribonucleic acid It is a nucleic acid molecule, i.e. a polymer consisting of nucleotide monomers. These nucleotides are usually adenosine-monophosphate (AMP), uridine-monophosphate (UMP), guanosine-monophosphate (GMP) and cytidine-monophosphate (CMP) monomers or analogues thereof, which are connected to each other along a so-called backbone. The backbone is typically formed by phosphodiester bonds between the sugar, i.e. ribose, of a first and a phosphate moiety of a second, adjacent monomer. The specific order of the monomers, i.e. the order of the bases linked to the sugar / phosphate-backbone, is called the RNA sequence. RNA can be obtained by transcription of a DNA sequence, e.g., inside a cell or in vitro. In the context of the invention, the RNA may be obtained by RNA in vitro transcription. Alternatively, RNA may be obtained by chemical synthesis.ion: The terms “RNA in vitro transcription” or “in vitro transcription” relate to a process wherein RNA is synthesized in a cell-free system in vitro. RNA may be obtained by DNA-dependent in vitro transcription of an appropriate DNA template, which is typically a linear DNA template (e.g. linearized plasmid DNA or PCR product). The promoter for controlling RNA in vitro transcription can be any promoter for any DNA-dependent RNA polymerase. Particular examples of DNA-dependent RNA polymerases are the T7, T3, SP6, or Syn5 RNA polymerases. In the context of the invention, the DNA template is typically linearized with a suitable restriction enzyme before it is subjected to RNA in vitro transcription. Reagents typically used in RNA in vitro transcription include: a DNA template (linearized plasmid DNA or PCR product) with a promoter sequence that has a high binding affinity for its respective RNA polymerase such as bacteriophage-encoded RNA polymerases (T7, T3, SP6, or Syn5); ribonucleotide triphosphates (NTPs) for the four bases (adenine, cytosine, guanine and uracil); optionally, a cap analogue as defined herein; optionally, modified nucleotides as defined herein; a DNA-dependent RNA polymerase capable of bindingto the promoter sequence within the DNA template (e.g. T7, T3, SP6, or Syn5 RNA polymerase); optionally, a ribonuclease (RNase) inhibitor to inactivate any potentially contaminating RNase; optionally, pyrophosphatase; MgCh; a buffer (TRIS or HEPES) to maintain a suitable pH value, which can also contain antioxidants (e.g. DTT), and / or polyamines such as spermidine.The term “tumour-associated antigen” (“TAA”) as used herein typically refers to antigens that are expressed by both normal and neoplastic tissue. TAAs may also be defined as self-proteins that are abnormally expressed by cancer cells. TAAs can be loosely categorized as oncofoetal (typically only expressed in foetal tissues and in cancerous somatic cells), overexpressed / accumulated (typically highly overexpressed in neoplastic tissue compared to normal tissue), cancer-testis / cancer- germline antigens (expressed only by cancer cells and adult reproductive tissues such as testis and placenta), differentiation antigens / lineage-restricted (typically derived from proteins that are expressed in a given type of tumour and the corresponding healthy tissue and expressed largely by a single cancer histotype), post translationally altered (tumour-associated alterations in glycosylation, etc.), or idiotypic (highly polymorphic genes where a tumour cell expresses a specific “clonotype”, i.e., as in B cell, T cell lymphoma / leukaemia resulting from clonal aberrancies). By some authors also oncoviral antigens (encoded by tumorigenic transforming viruses) are considered TAAs. It should be stressed that these categories are not mutually exclusive and TAAs may fall into more than one category.The term “variant” as used herein in the context of a nucleic acid sequence will be recognized and understood by the person of ordinary skill in the art, and is e.g. intended to refer to a variant of a nucleic acid sequence derived from another nucleic acid sequence. E.g., a variant of a nucleic acid sequence may exhibit one or more nucleotide deletions, insertions, additions and / or substitutions compared to the nucleic acid sequence from which the variant is derived. A variant of a nucleic acid sequence may at least 70%, 80%, 85%, 86%, 87%, 88%, 89%, 90%, 91 %, 92%, 93%, 94%, 95%, 96%, 97%, 98%, or 99% identical to the nucleic acid sequence the variant is derived from. A variant may be a functional variant in the sense that the variant has retained at least 50%, 60%, 70%, 80%, 90%, or 95% or more of the function of the sequence where it is derived from. A “variant” of a nucleic acid sequence may have at least 70%, 80%, 85%, 86%, 87%, 88%, 89%, 90%, 91 %, 92%, 93%, 94%, 95%, 96%, 97%, 98%, or 99% nucleotide identity over a stretch of at least 30, 50, 75 or 100 nucleotide of such nucleic acid sequence.The term “variant” as used herein in the context of proteins or peptides is e.g. intended to refer to a proteins or peptide variant having an amino acid sequence which differs from the original sequence in one or more mutation(s) / substitution(s), such as one or more substituted, inserted and / or deleted amino acid(s). A variant of an amino acid sequence may be at least 70%, 80%, 85%, 86%, 87%, 88%, 89%, 90%, 91 %, 92%, 93%, 94%, 95%, 96%, 97%, 98%, or 99% identical to the amino acid sequence the variant is derived from. Preferably, these fragments and / or variants have the same, or a comparable specific property. Insertions and substitutions are possible, in particular, at those sequence positions which cause no modification to the three-dimensional structure or do not affect the binding region. Modifications to a three- dimensional structure by insertions) or deletion(s) can easily be determined e.g. using CD spectra (circular dichroism spectra). A variant of a protein may be a functional variant of the protein, which means that thevariant exerts essentially the same, or at least 40%, 50%, 60%, 70%, 80%, 90% of the function of the protein it is derived from. A “variant” of a protein or peptide may have at least 70%, 75%, 80%, 85%, 90%, 95%, 98% or 99% amino acid identity over a stretch of at least 10, 15, 30, 50, 75 or 100 amino acids of such protein or peptide.Where reference is made to “SEQ ID NOs” of other patent applications or patents, said sequences, e.g. amino acid sequences or nucleic acid sequences, are explicitly incorporated herein by reference.

Preferably, the term “antigenic protein” or “immunogenic protein” refers to an (antigenic or immunogenic) protein, which stimulates the body’s adaptive or cellular immune system to provide a humoral or cellular immune response. Therefore, an antigenic / immunogenic protein comprises at least one epitope (as defined herein) or antigen (as defined herein), e.g. selected or derived from a TAA, preferably as described herein.The term “antigenic peptide” or “immunogenic peptide” as used herein preferably refers to a fragment of a full-length antigen, e.g. a fragment of a full-length TAA.

Such constructs may include replicase elements derived from e.g. alphaviruses (e.g. SFV, SIN, VEE, or RRV) and the substitution of the structural virus proteins with the nucleic acid of interest (that is, the sequence encoding at least one tumour antigen).In particularly preferred embodiments, the artificial nucleic acid is selected from an mRNA. mRNA is preferred to provide the combination of tumour antigens according to the invention, because mRNA allows for regulated dosage, transient expression, complete degradation of the mRNA after protein synthesis, and does not pose the risk of insertional mutations.Preferably, the artificial nucleic acid, preferably the RNA, comprises about 50 to about 20000 nucleotides, or about 500 to about 10000 nucleotides, or about 1000 to about 10000 nucleotides, or preferably about 1000 to about 5000 nucleotides, or even more preferably about 2000 to about 5000 nucleotides.In preferred embodiments, the artificial nucleic acid comprises at least one poly(N) sequence, e.g. at least one poly(A) sequence, at least one poly(U) sequence, at least one poly(C) sequence, or combinations thereof.In preferred embodiments, the artificial nucleic acid, e.g. the RNA, comprises at least one poly(A) sequence. In some embodiments, the artificial nucleic acid comprises least two, three, or more poly(A) sequences.The terms “poly(A) sequence”, “poly(A) tail” or “3’-poly(A) tail” as used herein refer to a sequence of adenosine nucleotides, typically located at the 3’-end of a linear RNA of up to about 1000 adenosine nucleotides. Preferably, said poly(A) sequence is essentially homopolymeric, e.g. a poly(A) sequence of 100 adenosine nucleotides has essentially the length of 100 nucleotides. In other embodiments, the poly(A) sequence may be interrupted by at least one nucleotide different from an adenosine nucleotide, e.g. a poly(A) sequence of 100 adenosine nucleotides may have a length of more than 100 nucleotides (comprising 100 adenosine nucleotides and in addition said at least one nucleotide - or a stretch of nucleotides - different from an adenosine nucleotide).In preferred embodiments, the at least one poly(A) sequence may comprise about 20 to about 500 adenosine nucleotides, about 40 to about 250 adenosine nucleotides, about 60 to about 250 adenosine nucleotides, preferably about 60 to about 150 adenosine nucleotides. Suitably, the length of the poly(A) sequence may be at least about or even more than about 10, 50, 64, 75, 100, 200, 300, 400, or 500 adenosine nucleotides, preferably consecutive adenosine nucleotides.In particularly preferred embodiments, the at least one poly(A) sequence comprises about 100 adenosine nucleotides (A100), preferably about 100 consecutive adenosine nucleotides.In further embodiments, the artificial nucleic acid comprises at least one interrupted poly(A) sequence comprising about 100 adenosine nucleotides, wherein the poly(A) sequence is interrupted by nonadenosine nucleotides, preferably by about 10 non-adenosine (N10) nucleotides. In that context, a poly(A) sequence A30-N10-A70 is preferred.Accordingly, in embodiments, the artificial nucleic acid, preferably the RNA, comprises at least two poly(A) sequences.In preferred embodiments, the at least one poly(A) sequence is located directly at the 3’ terminus of the nucleic acid, preferably the RNA. In preferred embodiments, the 3’-terminal nucleotide (that is the last 3’- terminal nucleotide in the polynucleotide chain) is the 3’-terminal A nucleotide of the at least one poly(A) sequence. The term “directly located at the 3’ terminus” has to be understood as being located exactly at the 3’ terminus - in other words, the 3’ terminus of the nucleic acid consists of a poly(A) sequence terminating with an A.Ending on an adenosine nucleotide decreases the induction of interferons, e.g. IFN-alpha, by the RNA of the invention if for example administered as a medicament to a human. This is important as the induction of interferons, e.g. IFNalpha, is thought to be one main factor for induction of side effects.Accordingly, in particularly preferred embodiments, the artificial nucleic acid, preferably the RNA, comprises a poly(A) sequence of about 100 consecutive adenosine nucleotides, wherein said poly(A) sequence is located directly at the 3’ terminus of the RNA, optionally wherein the 3’ terminal nucleotide is an adenosine.In preferred embodiments, the poly(A) sequence of the nucleic acid, e.g. the RNA, is obtained from a DNA template during RNA in vitro transcription. In other embodiments, the poly(A) sequence is obtained in vitro by common methods of chemical synthesis without being necessarily transcribed from a DNA template. In other embodiments, poly(A) sequences are generated by enzymatic polyadenylation of the RNA (after RNA in vitro transcription) using e.g. immobilized poly(A)polymerases according to WO2016174271 .In some embodiments, the artificial nucleic acid, e.g. the RNA, comprises at least one poly(A) sequence obtained by enzymatic polyadenylation, wherein the majority of RNA molecules comprise about 100 (+ / - 20) to about 500 (+ / - 100) adenosine nucleotides, preferably about 100 (+ / - 20) to about 200 (+ / - 40) adenosines.In some embodiments, the artificial nucleic acid comprises at least one polyadenylation signal.In preferred embodiments, the artificial nucleic acid comprises at least one poly(C) sequence and / or at least one miRNA binding site and / or histone stem-loop sequence.In some embodiments, the 3 -UTR element and / or the 5’-UTR element comprises one or more miRNA or binding sites for miRNAs. MicroRNAs (or miRNA) are 19-25 nucleotide long noncoding RNAs that bind to the 3’-UTR of RNA molecules and down-regulate gene expression either by reducing RNA stability or by inhibiting translation. E.g., microRNAs are known to regulate RNA, and thereby protein expression, e.g. in liver (miR-122), heart (miR-ld, miR-149), endothelial cells (miR-17-92, miR-126), adipose tissue (let-7, miR- 30c), kidney (miR-192, miR-194, miR-204), myeloid cells (miR-142-3p, miR-142-5p, miR-16, miR-21 , miR- 223, miR-24, miR-27), muscle (miR-133, miR-206, miR-208), and lung epithelial cells (let-7, miR-133, miR- 126). The RNA may comprise one or more microRNA target sequences, microRNA sequences, or microRNA seeds. Such sequences may correspond to any known microRNA, e.g. to those taught in US20050261218 and US20050059005.Accordingly, miRNA, or binding sites for miRNAs as defined above may be removed from the 3’-UTR or 5’- UTR or may be introduced into the 3’-UTR or 5’-UTR in order to tailor the expression to desired cell types or tissues.In some embodiments, the artificial nucleic acid comprises at least one poly(C) sequence.

A hSL in the context of the invention may be located in an UTR region, preferably in the 3 -UTR.The term “histone stem-loop” (hSL) is intended to refer to nucleic acid sequences that forms a stem-loop secondary structure predominantly found in histone mRNAs. Histone stem-loop sequences / structures may suitably be selected from hSL sequences as disclosed in W02012019780. A hSL sequence that may be used herein may be derived from formulae (I) or (II) of W02012019780.

Further, the first nucleotide of said 5’-terminal start sequence may preferably comprise a 2’0 methylation, e.g. 2’0 methylated guanosine or a 2’0 methylated adenosine.Modified nucleotides:According to various embodiments, the artificial nucleic acid, preferably the RNA, is modified, wherein the modification preferably refers to chemical modifications comprising backbone modifications as well as sugar modifications or base modifications.A modified nucleic acid or RNA may comprise nucleotide analogues / modifications, e.g. backbone modifications, sugar modifications or base modifications. A backbone modification is a modification in which phosphates of the backbone of the nucleotides of the RNA are chemically modified. A sugar modificationis a chemical modification of the sugar of the nucleotides of the RNA. Furthermore, a base modification is a chemical modification of the base moiety of the nucleotides of the RNA. In this context, nucleotide analogues or modifications are preferably selected from nucleotide analogues which are applicable for transcription and / or translation.In embodiments, the artificial nucleic acid, preferably the RNA, comprises at least one modified nucleotide.In some embodiments, the at least one modified nucleotide is selected from pseudouridine, N1 - methylpseudouridine, N1 -ethylpseudouridine, 2-thiouridine, 4’-thiouridine, 5-methylcytosine, 5- methyluridine, 2-th i o-1 -methyl-1 -deaza-pseudouridine, 2-th io- 1 -methyl-pseudouridine, 2-thio-5-aza- uridine, 2-thio-dihydropseudouridine, 2-thio-dihydrouridine, 2-thio-pseudouridine, 4-methoxy-2-thio- pseudouridine, 4-methoxy-pseudouridine, 4-thio-1 -methyl-pseudouridine, 4-thio-pseudouridine, 5-aza- uridine, dihydropseudouridine, 5-methoxyuridine and 2’-O-methyl uridine.Particularly preferred in that context are pseudouridine (qj) and N1 -methylpseudouridine (m1 qj). Accordingly, in preferred embodiments, the artificial nucleic acid is an RNA that comprises at least one modified nucleotide, preferably a modified nucleotide selected from pseudouridine (qj) or N1 - methylpseudouridine (m1 qj). In particularly preferred embodiments, the at least one modified nucleotide is N1 -methylpseudouridine (m1 qj).In some embodiments, essentially all, e.g. essentially 100% of the uracil in the coding sequence (or the full nucleic acid sequence) have a chemical modification, preferably a chemical modification in the 5-position of the uracil.In preferred embodiments, the artificial nucleic acid is a modified RNA wherein each uracil is substituted by a modified nucleotide.

Alternatively, 100% of the uracil in the full nucleic acid sequence, preferably the RNA sequence, are substituted with pseudouridine (qj).In equally preferred embodiments, the artificial nucleic acid, preferably the RNA, does not comprise modified nucleotides such as chemically modified nucleotides. Notably, a 5’-cap structure as defined below is typically not considered to be a chemically modified nucleotide. Accordingly, the artificial nucleic acid, preferably the RNA, comprises a sequence that consists only of G, C, A and U nucleotides and therefore does not comprise modified nucleotides, and optionally comprises a 5’-cap structure. In embodiments, the artificial nucleic acid, preferably the RNA, does not comprise N1 -methylpseudouridine (mi l1) substituted positions or pseudouridine (qj) substituted positions.RNA constructs that do not comprise chemically modified nucleotides may be beneficial in the context of cancer therapies as stronger T-cell responses can be induced by providing the cancer antigens via nonmodified RNA (compared to m1 qj or qj modified RNA).Cap structures:In preferred embodiments, the artificial nucleic acid is an RNA that comprises a 5’-cap structure.Such a 5’-cap structure suitably stabilizes the nucleic acid and / or enhances expression of the encoded tumour antigen and / or reduces the stimulation of the innate immune system after administration.Accordingly, in preferred embodiments, the artificial nucleic acid, preferably the RNA, comprises a 5’-cap structure, preferably m7G, capO, cap1 , cap2, a modified capO or a modified cap1 structure.The term “5’-cap structure” refers to a 5’ modified nucleotide, particularly a guanine nucleotide, positioned at the 5’-end of an RNA.

In that context, preferred modified nucleotides may be selected from pseudouridine (qj) or N1 -methylpseudouridine (m1 qj). Suitably, uracil nucleotides in the nucleotide mixture are replaced (either partially or completely) by pseudouridine (qj) and / or N1 -methylpseudouridine (m1 qj) to obtain a modified RNA (e.g. a modified mRNA).In other embodiments, the nucleotide mixture for RNA in vitro transcription does not comprise modified nucleotides as defined herein. In embodiments, the nucleotide mixture used for RNA in vitro transcription does only comprise G, C, A and U nucleotides, and, optionally, a cap analogue as defined herein, to obtain a non-modified RNA (e.g. a non-modified mRNA).In preferred embodiments, the nucleotide mixture (i.e. the fraction of each nucleotide in the mixture) used for RNA in vitro transcription reactions is optimized for the given RNA sequence, preferably as described WO2015188933. Accordingly, in preferred embodiments, the nucleic acid of the invention is an in vitro transcribed RNA, preferably wherein RNA in vitro transcription has been performed in the presence of a sequence optimized nucleotide mixture.In the context of the invention (e.g. for RNA-based medicaments), it may be required to provide GMP-grade RNA. In preferred embodiments, RNA production is performed under current good manufacturing practice (GMP), implementing various quality control steps on DNA and RNA level, preferably quality control steps selected from methods described in W02016180430. In preferred embodiments, the RNA is a GMP-grade RNA, particularly a GMP-grade mRNA.In preferred embodiments, the artificial nucleic acid is a purified RNA, preferably a purified mRNA. Suitably, the RNA of the invention has been purified by at least one step of purification.The term “purified RNA” or “purified mRNA” as used herein has to be understood as RNA which has a higher purity after certain purification steps than the starting material (e.g. in vitro transcribed RNA). Typical impurities that are essentially not present in purified RNA comprise peptides or proteins (e.g. enzymes derived from DNA dependent RNA in vitro transcription, e.g. RNA polymerases, RNases, pyrophosphatase, restriction endonuclease, DNase), spermidine, BSA, abortive RNA sequences, RNA fragments (short double stranded RNA (dsRNA)), free nucleotides (modified nucleotides, conventional NTPs, cap analogue), template DNA fragments, buffer components (HEPES, TRIS, MgCh) etc. Other potential impurities that may be derived from e.g. fermentation procedures comprise bacterial impurities (bioburden, bacterial DNA) or impurities derived from purification procedures (organic solvents etc.). Accordingly, it is desirable in this regard for the “degree of RNA purity” to be as close as possible to 100%. Accordingly, “purified RNA” as used herein has a degree of purity of more than 75%, 80%, 85%, very particularly 90%, 91 %, 92%, 93%, 94%, 95%, 96%, 97%, 98% and most favourably 99% or more. The degree of purity is e.g. determined by an analytical HPLC, wherein the percentages provided above correspond to the ratio between the area of the peak for the target RNA and the total area of all peaks including the peaks representing the by-products. Alternatively, the degree of purity is e.g. determined by an analytical agarose gel electrophoresis or capillary gel electrophoresis.In preferred embodiments, the RNA is a purified RNA, wherein the RNA has been purified by at least one step of (RP)-HPLC, AEX, size exclusion chromatography (SEC), hydroxyapatite chromatography,tangential flow filtration (TFF), filtration, precipitation, core-bead flow through chromatography, oligo(dT) purification, cellulose-based purification, or any combination thereof.Preferably, the RNA has been purified using RP-HPLC (preferably as described in W02008077592) and / or TFF (preferably as described in WO2016193206) and / or oligo d(T) purification (preferably as described in WO2016180430) to e.g. to remove dsRNA, non-capped RNA and / or RNA fragments.In some embodiments, the RNA has been purified by a step of 5’ dephosphorylation of linear RNA, DNA digestion, protein digestion, and / or dsRNA digestion.According to preferred embodiments, the purified RNA has a purity level of at least about 70%, 75%, 80%, 85%, 90%, or 95%, preferably more than 95%. Suitably, the degree of purity is determined by analytical HPLC.In embodiments, the RNA has a certain RNA integrity. The term “RNA integrity” generally describes whether the complete nucleic acid sequence or RNA sequence is present. Low RNA integrity could be due to, amongst others, RNA degradation, RNA cleavage, incorrect or incomplete chemical synthesis of the RNA, incorrect base pairing, integration of modified nucleotides or the modification of already integrated nucleotides, lack of capping or incomplete capping, lack of polyadenylation or incomplete polyadenylation, or incomplete RNA in vitro transcription. RNA is a fragile molecule that can easily degrade, which may be caused e.g. by temperature, ribonucleases, pH or other factors (e.g. nucleophilic attacks, hydrolysis etc.), which may reduce the RNA integrity and, consequently, its functionality. The integrity of the RNA can be determined by RP-HPLC and may be based on determining the peak area (or “area under the peak”) of the expected full-length RNA (the RNA with the correct RNA length) in a chromatogram.In embodiments, the at least one nucleic acid, preferably the RNA, has an integrity ranging from about 40% to about 100%.

A formulation in that context may have the function of a transfection agent. A formulation may also have the function of protecting the nucleic acid from degradation, e.g. to allow storage, shipment, etc..In embodiments, the at least one nucleic acid, preferably the at least one RNA, is formulated with at least one compound, e.g. peptides, proteins, lipids, polysaccharides, and / or polymers.In embodiments, the artificial nucleic acid or artificial nucleic acid set, preferably RNA, is formulated with at least one cationic (cationic or preferably ionizable) or polycationic compound (cationic or preferably ionizable). In preferred embodiments, the at least one nucleic acid, preferably the at least one RNA, is complexed or associated with or at least partially complexed or partially associated with one or more cationic (cationic or preferably ionizable) or polycationic compound.The term “cationic or polycationic compound” as used herein refers to a charged molecule, which is positively charged at a pH value ranging from about 1 to 9, at a pH value ranging from about 3 to 8, at a pH value ranging from about 4 to 8, at a pH value ranging from about 5 to 8, more preferably at a pH value ranging from about 6 to 8, even more preferably at a pH value ranging from about 7 to 8, most preferably at a physiological pH, e.g. ranging from about 7.2 to about 7.5.

A “cationic or polycationic peptide or protein” may contain at least one positively charged amino acid, or morethan one positively charged amino acid, e.g. selected from Arg, His, Lys or Orn.

Preferably, the at least one cationic or polycationic compound is selected from a cationic or polycationic lipid.In particularly preferred embodiments, the artificial nucleic acid or artificial nucleic acid set, preferably RNA, is formulated in a lipid-based carrier.In the context of the invention, the term “lipid-based carrier” encompass a lipid-based delivery system for nucleic acid, preferably RNA, that comprise a lipid component. A lipid-based carrier may additionally comprise other components suitable for encapsulating / incorporating / complexing a nucleic acid including a cationic or polycationic polymer, a cationic or polycationic polysaccharide, a cationic or polycationic protein, a cationic or polycationic peptide, or any combinations thereof.A typical “lipid-based carrier” may be selected from liposomes, lipid nanoparticles (LNPs), lipoplexes, solid lipid nanoparticles, and / or nanoliposomes. The artificial nucleic acid of the composition (e.g. RNA) may completely or partially be incorporated or encapsulated in a lipid-based carrier, wherein the at least one nucleic acid may be located in the interior space of the lipid-based carrier, within the lipid layer / membrane of the lipid-based carrier, or associated with the exterior surface of the lipid-based carrier. The incorporation of nucleic acid such as RNA into lipid-based carriers may be referred to as “encapsulation”. A “lipid-based carrier” is not restricted to any particular morphology, and include any morphology generated when e.g., an aggregation reducing lipid and at least one further lipid are combined, e.g., in an aqueous environment in the presence of nucleic acid. For example, an LNP, a liposome, a lipid complex, a lipoplex and the like are within the scope of the term “lipid-based carrier”. Lipid-based carriers can be of different sizes such as, but not limited to, a multilamellar vesicle (MLV) which may be hundreds of nanometers in diameter and may contain a series of concentric bilayers separated by narrow aqueous compartments, a small unicellular vesicle (SUV) which may be smaller than 50nm in diameter, and a large unilamellar vesicle (LUV) which may be between 50nm and 500nm in diameter. Liposomes, a specific type of lipid-based carrier, are characterized as microscopic vesicles having an interior aqua space sequestered from an outer medium by a membrane of one or more bilayers. In a liposome, the at least one nucleic acid (e.g. RNA) is typically located in the interior aqueous space enveloped by some or the entire lipid portion of the liposome. Bilayer membranes of liposomes are typically formed by amphiphilic molecules, such as lipids of synthetic or natural origin that comprise spatially separated hydrophilic and hydrophobic domains. Lipid nanoparticles (LNPs), a specific type of lipid-based carrier, are characterized as microscopic lipid particles having a solid core or partially solid core. Typically, an LNP does not comprise an interior aqua space sequestered from an outer medium by a bilayer.In embodiments, the lipid-based carrier is selected from lipid nanoparticles, liposomes, lipoplexes, solid lipid nanoparticles, lipo-polyplexes, and / or nanoliposomes.In particularly preferred embodiments, the lipid-based carrier is a lipid nanoparticles (LNPs). In an LNP, the at least one nucleic acid (e.g. RNA) may be encapsulated or incorporated in the lipid portion of the LNP enveloped by some or the entire lipid portion of the LNP. An LNP may comprise any lipid capable of forming a particle to which the nucleic acid such as the RNA may be attached, or in which the nucleic acid such as the RNA may be encapsulated.In particularly preferred embodiments, the lipid nanoparticles (LNPs) encapsulate the nucleic acid.The term “encapsulated”, e.g. incorporated, complexed, encapsulated, partially encapsulated, associated, partially associated, refers to the essentially stable combination of nucleic acid such as RNA with one or more lipids into lipid-based carriers (e.g. larger complexes or assemblies) preferably without covalent binding of the nucleic acid. The lipid-based carriers (e.g. LNPs) - encapsulated nucleic acid (e.g. RNA) may be completely or partially located in the interior of the lipid-based carrier (e.g. the lipid portion and / or an interior space) and / or within the lipid layer / membrane of the lipid-based carriers. The encapsulation of nucleic acid such as RNA into lipid-based carriers (e.g. LNPs) is also referred to herein as “incorporation” as the nucleic acid is preferably contained within the interior of the lipid-based carriers. Without wishing to be bound to theory, the purpose of incorporating or encapsulating nucleic acid such as RNA into lipid-based carriers may be to protect the nucleic acid from an environment which may contain enzymes, chemicals, or conditions that degrade the nucleic acid, in particular the RNA. Moreover, incorporating nucleic acid such as RNA into lipid-based carriers may promote the uptake of the nucleic acid and their release from the endosomal compartment, and hence, may enhance the therapeutic effect of the nucleic acid, in particular the RNA, when administered to a cell or a subject.In preferred embodiments, the lipid-based carrier, preferably the LNP, comprises at least one or more lipids selected from at least one aggregation-reducing lipid, at least one cationic lipid or ionizable lipid, at least one neutral lipid or phospholipid, or at least one steroid or steroid analogue, or any combinations thereof.In preferred embodiments, the lipid-based carrier, preferably the LNP, comprises an (i) at least one aggregation-reducing lipid, (ii) at least one cationic lipid or ionizable lipid, (iii) at least one neutral lipid or phospholipid, (iv) and at least one steroid or steroid analogue.In particularly preferred embodiments, the lipid-based carrier, preferably the LNP, comprises (i) an aggregation-reducing lipid, (ii) a cationic lipid or ionizable lipid, (iii) two different neutral lipids or phospholipids, and (iv) a steroid or steroid analog.Aggregation reducing lipids / polymer conjugated lipidsIn preferred embodiments, the lipid-based carrier, preferably the LNP, comprise at least one aggregation reducing lipid or aggregation reducing moiety.The term “aggregation reducing moiety” refers to a molecule comprising a moiety suitable of reducing or preventing aggregation of the lipid-based carriers, preferably the LNPs. The term “aggregation reducing lipid” refers to a molecule comprising both a lipid portion and a moiety suitable of reducing or preventing aggregation of the lipid-based carriers. Under storage conditions or during formulation, the lipid-based carriers such as LNPs may undergo charge-induced aggregation, a condition which can be undesirable for the stability of the lipid-based carriers. Therefore, it can be desirable to include a compound or moiety which can reduce aggregation, e.g. by sterically stabilizing the lipid-based carriers. Such a steric stabilization may occur when a compound having a sterically bulky but uncharged moiety that shields or screens the charged portions of a lipid-based carriers from close approach to other lipid-based carriers in the composition. Stabilization of the lipid-based carriers, preferably the LNPs, may be achieved by including lipids which may comprise a lipid bearing a sterically bulky group which, after formation of the lipid-based carrier, is preferably located on the exterior of the lipid-based carrier. Suitable aggregation reducing groups may include hydrophilic groups, e.g. monosialoganglioside GM1 , polyamide oligomers (PAO), or certain polymers, such as poly(oxyalkylenes), e.g., poly(ethylene glycol) or polypropylene glycol).In preferred embodiments, the aggregation reducing lipid is selected from a polymer conjugated lipid.Lipids comprising a polymer as aggregation reducing group are herein referred to as “polymer conjugated lipid”.The term “polymer conjugated lipid” refers to a molecule comprising both a lipid portion and a polymer portion, wherein the polymer is suitable of reducing or preventing aggregation of lipid-based carriers comprising the nucleic acid. A polymer has to be understood as a substance or material consisting of very large molecules, or macromolecules, composed of many repeating subunits. A suitable polymer in the context of the invention may be a hydrophilic polymer. An example of a polymer conjugated lipid is a PEGylated or PEG-conjugated lipid.In embodiments, the polymer conjugated lipid is selected from a PEG-conjugated lipid or a PEG-free lipid.In preferred embodiments, the polymer conjugated lipid is a PEG-conjugated lipid (or PEGylated lipid, PEG lipid).

In one preferred embodiment, the average molecular weight of the PEG moiety is about 2,000 Daltons. In embodiments, the polymer conjugated lipid, e.g. the PEG-conjugated lipid, is selected or derived from 1 ,2-dimyristoyl-rac-glycero-3-methoxypolyethylene glycol-2000 (PEG2000 DMG or DMG-PEG 2000). In other embodiments, the polymer conjugated lipid, e.g. the PEG-conjugated lipid, is selected or derived from C10-PEG2K, or Cer8-PEG2K.In other embodiments, the polymer conjugated lipid, e.g. the PEG-conjugated lipid, is selected or derived from formula (IV) of WO2018078053, preferably selected from formula (IVa) of WO2018078053. In thatcontext, a PEG-conjugated lipid selected or derived from formula IVa may have the chemical term 2[(polyethylene glycol)-2000]-N,N-ditetradecylacetamide, also referred to as ALC-0159.In other preferred embodiments, the lipid-based carriers, preferably the LNPs, comprise an aggregation reducing lipid, wherein the aggregation reducing lipid is not a PEG-conjugated lipid. Accordingly, the aggregation reducing lipid may suitably be selected from a PEG-free lipid, e.g. a PEG-free polymer conjugated lipid. In preferred embodiments, the aggregation reducing lipid (or polymer conjugated lipid) is a PEG-free lipid that comprises a polymer different from PEG. In preferred embodiments, the lipid-based carriers, preferably the LNPs, do not comprise a PEG-conjugated lipid.A PEG-free lipid in the context of the invention may be selected or derived from a “POZ-lipid”. In preferred embodiments, the “POZ lipids” or respectively preferred polymer conjugated lipids are described in WO2023031394, the full disclosure herewith incorporated by reference.

The terms “average diameter”, “mean diameter”, “diameter” or “size” for particles (e.g. lipid-based carrier) are used synonymously with the value of the Z-average. The term “Z-average size” refers to the mean diameter of particles as measured by dynamic light scattering (DLS) with data analysis using the so-called cumulant algorithm, which provides as results the so-called Z-average with the dimension of a length, and the polydispersity index (PI), which is dimensionless. The term “dynamic light scattering” or “DLS” refers to a method for analyzing particles in a liquid, wherein the liquid is typically illuminated with a monochromatic light source and wherein the light scattered by particles in the liquid is detected. DLS can thus be used to measure particle sizes in a liquid. Suitable DLS protocols are known in the art. DLS instruments are commercially available (such as the Zetasizer Nano Series, Malvern Instruments, Worcestershire, UK). DLS instruments employ either a detector at 90° (e.g., DynaPro® NanoStar® from Wyatt Technology or Zetasizer Nano S90® from Malvern Instruments) or a backscatter detection system at 173° (e.g., Zetasizer Nano S® from Malvern Instruments) and at 158° (DynaPro Plate Reader® from Malvern Instruments) close to the incident light of 180°. Typically, DLS measurements are performed at a temperature of about 25°C. DLS is also used in the context of the present invention to determine the polydispersity index (PDI) and / or the main peak diameter of the lipid-based carriers (e.g. LNPs) incorporating nucleic acid such as RNA.In preferred embodiments, the lipid-based carrier, preferably the LNP, has a Z-average size ranging from about 50nm to about 200nm, preferably in a range from about 50nm to about 150nm, more preferably from about 50nm to about 120nm.In preferred embodiments, at least 70% of the nucleic acid (e.g. RNA) comprised in the composition is encapsulated in lipid-based carriers such as LNPs, preferably 80% of the nucleic acid (e.g. RNA) comprised in the composition is encapsulated in lipid-based carriers such as LNPs, more preferably 90% of the nucleic acid (e.g. RNA) comprised in the composition is encapsulated in lipid-based carriers such as LNPs, most preferably 95% of the nucleic acid (e.g. RNA) comprised in the composition is encapsulated in lipid-based carriers such as LNPs, The percentage of encapsulation may be determined by a RiboGreen assay as known in the art.In embodiments, the plurality of the lipid-based carriers have a lamellar morphology and / or a bilayer morphology.

The term encompasses benign and malignant neoplasms. Malignancy in cancers is typically characterized by anaplasia, invasiveness, and metastasis; whereas benign malignancies typically have none of those properties. The terms includes neoplasms characterized by tumour growth as well as cancers of blood and lymphatic system. The term “cancer” according to the disclosure also comprises cancer metastases, e.g. cancer metastases associated with glioblastoma or astrocytoma.In some embodiments, the treating or preventing cancer in a subject is a personalized treatment. Accordingly, prior to a treatment with the respective therapeutic agents, the cancer of the patient may be analyzed by e.g. sequencing and / or mass spectrometry based tumour HLA-ligandome analysis.In embodiments, the cancer is selected from any tumour of the CNS as shown in Table 2.Table 2: Suitable Tumours of the Central Nervous System. Provisional Entities are in ItalicsAbbreviations: CNS, central nervous system; IDH, isocitrate dehydrogenase; NK, natural killer; PitNET, pituitary neuroendocrine tumor; SHH, sonic hedgehog.In preferred embodiments, the cancer is selected from a brain tumour, in particular selected from gliomas.Gliomas are brain tumours originating from glial cells in the nervous system. Glial cells, commonly called neuroglia or simply glia, are non-neuronal cells that provide support and nutrition, maintain homeostasis, form myelin, and participate in signal transmission in the nervous system. The two most important subgroups of gliomas are astrocytomas and oligodendrogliomas, named according to the normal glial cell type from which they originate (astrocytes or oligodendrocytes, respectively). Belonging to the subgroup of astrocytomas, glioblastoma multiforme (referred to as glioblastoma hereinafter) is the most common malignant brain tumour in adults and accounts for approx. 40% of all malignant brain tumours and approx. 50% of gliomas. It aggressively invades the central nervous system and is ranked at the highest malignancy level (grade IV) among all gliomas. Although there has been steady progress in their treatment due to improvements in neuroimaging, microsurgery, diverse treatment options, such as temozolomide or radiation, glioblastomas remain incurable. The lethal rate of this brain tumour is very high: the average life expectancy is 9 to 12 months after first diagnosis. The 5-year survival rate during the observation period from 1986 to 1990 was 8.0%. To date, the five-year survival rate following aggressive therapy including gross tumour resection is still less than 10%.Tumour cells of glioblastomas (GBM) are the most undifferentiated ones among brain tumours, so the tumour cells have high potential of migration and proliferation and are highly invasive, leading to very poor prognosis. Glioblastomas lead to death due to rapid, aggressive, and infiltrative growth in the brain. The infiltrative growth pattern is responsible for the unresectable nature of these tumours. Glioblastomas are also relatively resistant to radiation and chemotherapy, and, therefore, post-treatment recurrence rates are high. In addition, the immune response to the neoplastic cells is rather ineffective in completely eradicating all neoplastic cells following resection and radiation therapy.The average annual incidence rate of GBM is variable, ranging from 0.59 per 100,000 persons to 3.69 per 100,000 persons, and is the highest among malignant primary brain tumours.GBM is classified into primary glioblastoma (de novo) and secondary glioblastoma, depending on differences in the gene mechanism during malignant transformation of undifferentiated astrocytes or glial precursor cells. GBM (CNS WHO Grade 4) mainly occurs in older patients (mean age of 64 years), and typically shows epidermal growth factor receptor over expression, PTN (MMC I) mutation, CDKN2A (p16) deletion, and less frequently MDM2 amplification. The presence of O6-methylguanine DNA methyltransferase (MGMT) promoter methylation is a positive predictor of better overall survival (OS). Astrocytoma (CNS WHO Grade 2, 3 and 4) or oligodendrogliomas (CNS WHO Grade 2 and 3) mainly occur in younger patients (mean age of 45 years) and often contain TP53 mutations as the earliest detectable alteration. Mutations in isocitrate dehydrogenase-1 (IDH1) and IDH2 are present in 70 to 80% of astrocytomas (CNS WHO Grade 2, 3 and 4), and in only 5 to 10% of GBMs (CNS WHO Grade 4).Accordingly, in preferred embodiments, the cancer is glioblastoma or astrocytoma.In alternative embodiments, the cancer is selected from WHO grade II astrocytoma, WHO grade III astrocytoma, WHO grade II oligodendroglioma, WHO grade III oligodendroglioma or ependymoma.In alternative embodiments, the cancer is selected from any other brain, neuronal or tumour of the central nervous system, wherein at least one ofthe particularly preferred TAAs BCAN, PTPRZ1 , NLGN4X or BIRC- 5 is expressed or overexpressed.Accordingly, the invention provides an artificial nucleic acid as defined in the context of the first aspect,

However, the present invention shall not to be limited in scope by the specific embodiments presented herein and should rather be understood as being applicable to other compositions or uses as for example defined in the specification. Accordingly, the following preparations and Examples are given to enable those skilled in the art to more clearly understand and to practice the present invention. Indeed, various modifications of the invention in addition to those described herein will become readily apparent to those skilled in the art from the foregoing description, accompanying figures and the Examples below.Example 1 : Preparation of nucleic acids and lipid-based carriersExample 1 illustrates exemplary methods of obtaining nucleic acids of the invention as well as exemplary methods of generating compositions of the invention comprising nucleic acid(s), in particular RNA formulated in lipid-based carriers. Table 1 shows RNA constructs used in the Examples, including theamino acid sequences of the encoded fusion proteins. These RNA constructs / fusion proteins are further depicted in Figures 1 to 3.Table E1: RNA constructs used in the ExamplesExample 1.1. Preparation of DNA templates for RNA in vitro transcriptionDNA sequences encoding the different constructs of the invention were prepared and used for subsequent RNA in vitro transcription reactions. Some DNA sequences were prepared by modifying the wild type or reference encoding DNA sequences by introducing a G / C optimized coding sequence for stabilization and expression optimization. Sequences were introduced into a pUC derived DNA vector to comprise stabilizing heterologous UTR sequences and a stretch of adenosines and an optional histone stem-loop (hSL). The obtained plasmid DNA templates were transformed and propagated in bacteria using common protocols known in the art. Eventually, the plasmid DNA templates were extracted, purified, and linearized using a restriction enzyme.Example 1.2. RNA in vitro transcription from plasmid DNA templatesLinearized DNA templates were used for DNA dependent RNA in vitro transcription (IVT) using T7 RNA polymerase in the presence of a sequence optimized nucleotide mixture (ATP / GTP / CTP / UTP) and cap analog (cap1 : m7G(5’)ppp(5’)(2’OMeA)pG; TriLink) under suitable buffer conditions. Other constructs are produced in the presence of a nucleotide mixture comprising (ATP / GTP / CTP / pseudouridine (ip)) or (ATP / GTP / CTP / N1 -methylpseudouridine (m1 qj)) and a cap analog. After RNA in vitro transcription, the obtained RNA IVT reaction was subjected to purification steps comprising RP-HPLC.Example 1.3. Preparation of lipid-based carriers encapsulating the RNAFor Example 7 to 8, lipid nanoparticles with a formulation as depicted in Table E2 were prepared according to standard procedures in the art.Table E2: Lipid nanoparticle formulation used in Examples 7 and 8The LNP composition used in Example 7 was prepared using the NanoAssemblr microfluidic system (Precision NanoSystems Inc., Vancouver, BC) according to standard protocols which enables controlled, bottom-up, molecular self-assembly of nanoparticles via custom-engineered microfluidic mixing chips that enable millisecond mixing of nanoparticle components at a nanoliter scale.LNP compositions used in Example 7bis and 8 were prepared essentially according to the procedures described in WO2015199952, WO2017004143 and WO2017075531 .Example 2: Selection of suitable target antigens for generation of an mRNA-based multiepitope vaccine candidate against glioblastomaThe aim of the present Example was to select suitable target antigens for generation of an mRNA-based multiepitope vaccine candidate against glioblastoma. During in-depth analyses including but not limited to in silico analyses and preclinical experiments, 8 antigenic peptides from 4 TAAs expressed in Glioblastomas were considered particularly promising for inducing a strong and diversified immune response against GBM tumor cells. The sequences of these eight antigenic peptides and their originating source proteins are depicted in Table E3. Each antigenic peptide had a length of 29aa and comprised the MHC-I / II epitopes as indicated together with flanking regions as in their respective source proteins to allow for correct epitope processing and presentation when encoded by an mRNA vaccine. Notably, in addition to the indicated epitopes, each antigenic peptide was found to comprise multiple other experimentally validated and / or predicted T cell epitopes.Table E3: Particularly preferred GBM antigenic peptides of the inventionExample 2.1. In silico estimations - coverage among Glioblastoma patientsTo estimate the coverage for a vaccine based on these eight particularly preferred antigenic peptides among glioblastoma patients, an internally developed simulation algorithm that integrates epitope / HLA class-l binding information, allele frequency and gene expression in tumors was used.To this end, epitope / HLA class I binding data from the Immune Epitope Database (IEDB) was combined with MHCI epitope predictions using NetMHCPan v4.1 . To generate the predictions, all peptides of lengths between 9 and 11 comprised in the 8 antigenic peptides and the most frequent HLA-A / B / C alleles were considered (HLA-A*01 :01 , HLA-A*02:01 , HLA-A*03:01 , HLA-A*1 1 :01 , HLA-A*24:02, HLA-A*25:01 , HLA- A*26:01 , HLA-A*31 :01 , HLA-A*32:01 , HLA-A*68:01 , HLA-B*07:02, HLA-B*08:01 , HLA-B*13:02, HLA-B*14:02, HLA-B*15:01 , HLA-B*18:01 , HLA-B*27:05, HLA-B*35:01 , HLA-B*35:03, HLA-B*37:01 , HLA-B*38:01 , HLA-B*39:01 , HLA-B*40:01 , HLA-B*40:02, HLA-B*44:02, HLA-B*44:03, HLA-B*49:01 , HLA-B*50:01 , HLA-B*51 :01 , HLA-B*55:01 , HLA-B*56:01 , HLA-B*57:01 , HLA-C*01 :02, HLA-C*02:02, HLA-C*03:03, HLA-C*03:04, HLA-C*04:01 , HLA-C*05:01 , HLA-C*06:02, HLA-C*07:01 , HLA-C*07:02, HLA-C*08:02, HLA-C*12:03).The allele frequency and the gene expression data were obtained from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) in 155 glioblastoma patients. A gene expression threshold of 10 transcripts per million (TPM) was set to consider a gene expressed in an individual patient’s tumor.The simulation algorithm integrated the different data sources to estimate the patient coverage and its variability; it used NetMHCPan positive predictive values (PPV) to correct for HLA binding prediction errors and avoid over-estimating the coverage.Results:The results are shown in Figure 4 and demonstrate that vaccines based on these eight particularly preferred antigenic peptides have a high coverage among patients with glioblastoma, thus making it a suitable off-the-shelf shared vaccine for this indication. Notably, these results also show that approximately 38% of glioblastoma patients express at least three of the four particularly preferred TAAs and have HLA alleles capable of presenting at least one epitope within at least one antigenic peptide of all of these three TAAs, enabling a diversified immune response in a wide range of glioblastoma patients. Since the coverage estimations were only based on the antigenic peptide sequences and not the full-length TAA sequences, this means the following: i) regarding BCAN this means at least one epitope within BCA-002-long or BCA- 005-long; ii) regarding PTPRZ1 , this means at least one epitope within PTP-003-long, PTP-005-long, PTP- 010-long or PTP-013-long; iii) regarding NLGN4X and BIRC-5, this means at least one epitope within NLGN4X-001-long or BIR-002-long, respectively.Example 2.2. In silico estimations - coverage among Glioblastoma patients with HLA-A*02:01Since multiple epitopes comprised in the 8 antigenic peptides can be presented by HLA-A*02:01 , coverage estimations were additionally performed for patients expressing at least one HLA-A*02:01 allele. To this end, the method described in Example 2.1 was modified accordingly.Results:The results are shown in Figure 5 and demonstrate that vaccines based on these eight particularly preferred antigenic peptides have a remarkably high coverage among glioblastoma with HLA-A*02:01 , thus making it a particularly suitable off-the-shelf shared vaccine for this indication and patient cohort. Notably,these results also show that 95% of glioblastoma patients will express at least three of the four particularly preferred TAAs and have HLA alleles capable of presenting at least one epitope within at least one antigenic peptide of each of these three TAAs, enabling a diversified immune response in a wide range of glioblastoma patients.Example 2.3 Generation of an mRNA -based multiepitope vaccine candidate against glioblastomaThe eight particularly preferred GBM antigenic peptides as well as an antigenic peptide from HBV for monitoring vaccine efficacy were selected for the subsequent generation of an mRNA-based multiepitope vaccine candidate against glioblastoma. The antigenic peptides were encoded as concatenated fusion proteins, in which the 9 antigenic peptides were separated by non-immunogenic G4S linkers and the antigenic peptides from the same TAAs were clustered within the fusion protein (see Figure 1). Those sequences were flanked by additional amino acid sequences to yield an optimized fusion protein backbone for increased peptide presentation and eliciting strong immunogenicity. Those additional sequences comprised the signal peptide and TM / CD from CTLA4, as previously described in WO2019008001 , as well as a C-terminal E5 degron as described in the following Example. The rationale for using such an optimized fusion protein backbone is explained by the findings in Examples 3 to 5. backbone ia C-terminal degron -of fusionIn-depth screenings for modulator elements that can be included in fusion proteins to yield an optimized fusion protein backbone eliciting strong immunogenicity identified the C-terminal E5 degron as promising candidate. Thus, in Examples 3 to 5, such an optimized fusion protein backbone including a C-terminal E5 degron was assessed in detail with regard to fusion protein quantity (Example 3) and epitope presentation (Example 4) upon transfection as well as in vivo immunogenicity (Example 5). To this end, various surrogate mRNA constructs allowing for the analyses of these aspects were used (see Figures 2 and 3 and description below).The aim of the present Example was to comparatively analyze the intracellular protein quantity of fusion proteins with or without C-terminal E5 degron upon mRNA transfection. To this end, various surrogate mRNA constructs encoding for the GBM / HBVc antigenic peptides as well as a reporter module as depicted in Figure 2 were used. This reporter module comprises an 3xHA-tag, which allows for detection of the fusion protein by intracellular flow cytometry. RNA R11044 (negative control) encodes for a fusion protein comprising the same GBM / HBVc antigenic peptides as R11052 / R11053, but lacking the reporter module, CTLA4 sequences and degron. Transfection experiments with three cell types were performed: fresh murine bone-marrow derived dendritic cells (BMDCs) from C57BL / 6 mice; JAWSII cells (immortalized immature dendritic cell line established from the bone marrow of C57BL / 6 mice); HeLa cells.Culture and transfection of fresh murine BMDCs:Fresh murine BMDCs were generated using standard protocols. Briefly, bone marrow cells were harvested from the tibias and femurs of C57BL / 6 mice and cultured at 1x10e6 cells / ml with complete RPMI medium (RPMI Gibco 52400-025, 10% FCS, 1 % P / S, 4mM L-Glutamine) with GM-CSF (20ng / ml, Miltenyi 130-095-793) and IL-4 (5ng / ml, Miltenyi 130-097-757) in a 6-well plate. After 3 days, the same volume of complete RPMI medium with GM-CSF (20ng / ml) and IL-4 (5ng / ml) was added. At day 6, BMDCs were harvested and resuspended in Opti-MEM (Gibco 31985-070) medium on ice. 3x10e6 cells in 200pl Opti-MEM medium were mixed with 20pg mRNA (in 30pl), transferred to a 2mm gap sterile disposable electroporation cuvette and immediately electroporated using a Gene Pulser Xcell electroporation system (Bio-Rad; Square wave, 300V, 1 pulse of 6ms). After electroporation, 770p I warm complete RPMI medium were added to the cuvette and cells were transferred to a well of a 6-well plate containing 1 ml warm complete RPMI medium with a final concentration of 0.1 pg / ml LPS (Sigma-Aldrich L6529). 9h post-transfection, cells were harvested and analyzed by intracellular flow cytometry as described below.Culture and transfection of JAWSII cells:On day 0, JAWSII cells were seeded at a density of 500 000 cells / well in a 24-well plate in standard media for this cell line (Alpha MEM with nucleosides 12571 -063 Gibco, 20%FCS, 1 %P / S, 4mM L-Glutamine, 1 mM sodium pyruvate and 5ng / ml GM-CSF). On day 1 , cells were transfected with 3pg / well of Lipofectamine- formulated RNA R11052, R11053 or R1 1044 according to standard protocols (Lipofectamine 2000; Invitrogen; #11668-019; RNA:Lipofectamine = 1 pg:2pl). On day 2, 24h post-transfection, cells were harvested and analyzed by intracellular flow cytometry as described below.Culture and transfection of HeLa cells:On day 0, HeLa cells were seeded at a density of 400 000 cells / well in a 6-well plate. On day 1 , cells were transfected with 1 pg / well of lipofectamine-formulated RNA R11052, R11053 or R11044 according to standard protocols (Lipofectamine 2000; Invitrogen; #11668-019; RNA:Lipofectamine = 1 pg:2pl). On day 2, 24h post-transfection, cells were harvested and analyzed by intracellular flow cytometry as described below.Flow cytometry:Cells were intracellularly stained with an anti-HA.11 epitope tag antibody (clone 16B12; BioLegend #901524) and subsequently analyzed on a flow cytometer.Results:The results are shown in Figure 6 (fresh murine BMDC), Figure 7 (JAWSII cells) and Figure 8 (HeLa cells). The results for all three cell types show the highly surprising pattern that an increased signal for the HA-tag was detected for the fusion protein comprising the C-terminal E5 degron compared to the corresponding fusion protein without degron. This suggests that increased amounts of the fusion protein with the C-terminal E5 degron are present.Example 4: Optimized fusion protein backbone including a C-terminal degron - epitope presentation The aim of the present Example was to comparatively analyze the MHC-I and MHC-II presentation of peptides derived from mRNA-encoded fusion proteins with or without C-terminal E5 degron. Due to the lack of antibodies detecting the GBM peptides when presented by MHC molecules, again the mRNA surrogate constructs encoding for the GBM / HBVc antigenic peptides as well as a reporter module as depicted inFigure 2 were used. This reporter module comprises two antigenic peptides from chicken ovalbumin (SERPINB14, aa 247-275 comprising the MHC-I epitope SIINFEKL) and murine H2-Ea (aa 71-99 comprising the MHC-II epitope Ea aa 52-68), for which detection antibodies were available. SIINFEKL and Ea are two peptides that can be presented on MHC class I and class II molecules of C57BL / 6 mice, respectively, and can be detected as peptide-MHC complexes by specific antibodies. This allows to analyze the processing, loading and presentation of MHC-I / II of peptides derived from mRNA-encoded fusion proteins.Fresh murine BMDCs from C57BL / 6 mice were used in the present Example. Fresh BMDCs were generated, cultured and electroporated as described in Example 3. Besides R11052 / R11053 / R11044, further comparator mRNAs as described below were used.R11055 (GBMr - comparator 1) encodes for a fusion protein comprising the same GBM / HBVc antigenic peptides and reporter module as R11052 / R11053, but lacking the CTLA4 sequences and degron. Consequently, this fusion protein should localize to the cytosol.R11063 (GBMr - comparator 2) encodes for a fusion protein comprising the same GBM / HBVc antigenic peptides and reporter module as R11052 / R1 1053, but lacking the CTLA4 sequences and degron, and comprising at the N-terminus a signal peptide and further amino acid sequences derived from LAMP1 intended to localize the fusion protein to the inside of lysosomes and late endosomes.R11061 (GBMr - comparator 3) encodes for a fusion protein comprising the same GBM / HBVc antigenic peptides and reporter module as R11052 / R1 1053, but lacking the CTLA4 sequences and degron, and comprising at the N-terminus a signal peptide (derived from a protein other than CTLA4 and LAMP1) intended to localize the fusion protein to the endoplasmic reticulum.All of those comparator mRNAs had the same mRNA backbone as R11052 / R11053, e.g. same cap, UTRs, hSL-A100.9h post transfection, the BMDCs were extracellularly stained for the SIINFEKL peptide presented on MHC- I (anti-mouse H-2Kb bound to SIINFEKL antibody; clone 25-D1.16; BioLegend #141612) and the Ea peptide presented on MHC-II molecules (anti-MHC class II Y-Ae; Santa Cruz #sc32247). Furthermore, cells were intracellularly stained with an anti-HA.11 epitope tag antibody (clone 16B12; BioLegend #901524) and subsequently analyzed on a flow cytometer. Additionally, for R11044 / R11053 / R11055 / R11063 a time kinetic of MHC-II peptide presentation was carried out, with flow cytometric readouts at 5h, 9h and 17h after transfection.Results:The results are shown in Figure 9 and 10. Without wishing to be bound by any theory, the results can be described and interpreted as follows. Staining for SIINFEKL / MHC-I complexes detected similar amounts of the MHC-I presented peptide on cells transfected with R11053 (construct with degron) and R1 1052(construct without degron) in this experimental setup (Figure 9A). In contrast, staining for Ea / MHC-ll complexes surprisingly detected increased levels of the MHC-II presented peptide on cells transfected with R11053 compared to cells transfected with R11052 (Figure 9B). Simultaneous quantification of the HA-tag (as surrogate for intracellular fusion protein quantity) furthermore confirmed that the increased MHC-II peptide presentation is not simply caused by the increased protein amount of the R11053 fusion protein, since R11061 (construct with alternative SP) showed high intracellular protein amounts, but no (=background level) MHC-II peptide presentation (Figure 9C).Furthermore, the comparative analyses revealed that R11055 (construct without CTLA4 sequences and degron) showed no MHC-II peptide presentation, while R11063 (construct with LAMP1 sequences) showed high MHC-II peptide presentation. This observation is consistent with the accepted theory that presentation of MHC-II epitopes requires the processing of proteins localized to endosomal-lysosomal vesicles. Indeed, R11063 (constructs with LAMP1 sequences intended to localize the fusion protein to the inside of lysosomal and late-endosomal vesicles) shows a high level of MHC-II epitope presentation, while R1 1055 (construct without CTLA4 sequences and degron intended to localize to the cytosol) shows none. R11052 (construct with CTLA4 sequences, but without degron) shows some degree of MHC-II presentation, which is in line with literature that describes CTLA4 as a “fast recycling” protein that is readily and recurrently internalized to enter the endosomal-lysosomal compartments. Unexpectedly, however, the fusion of the C-terminal E5 degron with the C-terminus of CTLA4 further increased MHC-II peptide presentation, even to levels slightly higher than those observed with R11063. Moreover, high MHC-II peptide presentation persisted for a longer period of time than with R11063 (Figure 10). This may suggest that the C-terminal E5 degron prolongs the retention time of immunogenic fusion proteins in endosomal-lysosomal vesicles.In summary, these data demonstrate that epitopes within fusion proteins based on the optimized CTLA4- E5 backbone are correctly cleaved and released from the context of their fusion protein (thus processed similarly as in their natural source proteins), and loaded onto MHC-I and MHC-II molecules. Unexpectedly in this context, the addition of the C-terminal E5 degron promotes enhanced and long-lasting MHC-II peptide presentation. In contrast, fusion proteins localized to the cytosol (R11055) or inside the endoplasmic reticulum (R1 1061) only enable efficient MHC-I peptide presentation. fusion protein backbone ia C-terminal degron - in vivoThe aim of the experiment was to assess the in vivo immunogenicity of a cancer vaccine based on the optimized fusion protein backbone in a proof-of-concept mouse study. To this end, the immunogenicity of an LNP-formulated mRNA vaccine with this optimized fusion protein backbone encoding antigenic peptides derived from the B16.F10 melanoma cell line was tested in C57BL / 6 mice. The structural overview of this mRNA vaccine (B16-CTLA4-E5 mRNA; R10667) is given in Figure 3; further details regarding the encoded antigenic peptides are given in Table E4.In brief, female 7-9 week old C57BL / 6 mice were vaccinated intramuscularly with 5pg LNP-formulated B16- CTLA4-E5 (R10667) or PpLuc control (R8730) mRNA at day 0, 7 and 14 (n=5 / group). At day 21 , mice weresacrificed and splenocytes were isolated. Splenocytes were restimulated with 5pg / ml of the individual peptides of Table E4 or DMSO as control for 6 hours with the addition of GolgiPlug (BD Biosciences) after 1 h. Splenocytes were then stained with fluorophore-conjugated antibodies recognizing surface and intracellular markers and analysed by flow cytometry to determine CD8 responses (IFN-gamma / TNF-alpha double positive population of CD8 T cells) and CD4 responses (IFN-gamma / TNF-alpha double-positive population of CD4 T cells) against the antigenic peptides.Table E4: Antigenic peptides encoded by B16-CTLA4-E5 mRNA (R10667) and used for re-stimulationResults:The results are shown in Figure 11 . B16-CTLA4-E5 showed potent CD8 and CD4 T cell responses. Overall, the data demonstrate that mRNA vaccines based on the optimized fusion protein backbone induce potent CD8 and CD4 T-cell responses against the encoded antigenic peptides. Notably, this holds true for a variety of different antigen classes, e.g. forTAAs, neoepitopes and synthetic epitopes as well as for both unmutated and mutated epitopes. The optimized fusion protein backbone is thus able to raise potent immune responses against a variety of different target antigens.Example 6: Presentation of peptides derived from the CVGBM fusion protein on MHC moleculesThe findings in Examples 2 to 5 were the basis for generation of an mRNA-based multiepitope vaccine candidate against glioblastoma, R11047 / CVGBM, for further preclinical and clinical testing.Whereas the experimental setups in Examples 3 to 5 required surrogate mRNA constructs, further experimental methods were used in Example 6 and 7 in order to directly characterize the clinical candidate mRNA R11047 / CVGBM prior to clinical evaluation.The aim of the present Example was to determine whether upon CVGBM mRNA transfection the encoded fusion protein is correctly translated and processed and whether the encoded peptides are presented on MHC / HLA molecules of human cells.To this end, two experimental readouts, flow cytometry and mass-spectrometry, were used.The availability of a TCR-like antibody that detects the peptide HBV-001 when bound to HLA-A*02 allowed the analysis of the presentation of this CVGBM-encoded peptide on cells transfected with CVGBM mRNA. To this end, CVGBM mRNA was transfected into HEK293T cells, which endogenously express the HLA- A*02:01 allele capable of presenting HBV-001 , and complexes of HBV-001 bound to HLA-A*02:01 were assessed by flow cytometry.In brief, on day 0, HEK293T cells were seeded at 500.000 cells / well in 6-well plates. On day 1 , cells were transfected with 5pg of Lipofectamine-formulated CVGBM or mock-transfected with the same amount of lipofectamine according to standard protocols (Lipofectamine 2000; Invitrogen; #1 1668-019; RNA:Lipofectamine = 1 pg:2pl). On day 2, 19h post transfection, cells were stained with an TCR-like antibody that binds the HBV-001 peptide only when presented on HLA-A*02:01 molecules (clone c18 / A2; creative biolabs #TCR-LA-ZP059; 1 pg / ml) and assessed by flow cytometry. HEK293T cells pulsed with 10pg / ml of HBV-001 peptide for 2h served as staining control.Results:The results are shown in Figure 12. HEK293T cells transfected with CVGBM mRNA showed a strong staining for HBV-001 :HLA-A*02:01 complexes. This confirmed the proper translation and processing of the encoded CVGBM fusion protein and subsequent efficient loading of resulting peptides on MHC molecules.Example 6.2: Mass-spectrometrv analysesThe aim of the experiment was to further confirm the correct translation and processing of the CVGBM fusion protein and the loading and presentation of resulting processed peptides on MHC / HLA in human cells, in particular to confirm the presentation of the encoded GBM peptides. To this end, cells were transfected with CVGBM mRNA and MHC-I presented peptides were isolated by immunoprecipitation and identified by untargeted LC-MS / MS (experimental setup shown in Figure 13).Since for mass spectrometry analyses large amounts of transfected cells are needed, model cell lines were used: THP-1 and HEK293T cells both endogenously expressing HLA-A*02:01 . In brief, on day 0, HEK293T or THP-1 cells were seeded in cell culture dishes (0 = 15cm; 6.4x106HEK293T or 8x106THP-1 cells per dish; 16 dishes per cell line). On day 1 , cells were transfected with 32pg RNA per dish of Lipofectamine- formulated CVGBM / R11047 or control mRNA according to standard protocols (Lipofectamine 2000; Invitrogen; #11668-019; RNA:Lipofectamine = 1 pg:2pl). The control mRNA encoded for a completely different fusion protein that had no overlapping amino acid sequence besides the linker sequence. After 6h, cells were harvested by pipetting or scraping, washed twice in ice-cold PBS, and snap-frozen at -80°C as dry pellets, with 8 dishes pooled per cell line and RNA.Subsequently, MHC-I presented peptides were isolated by immunoprecipitation and identified by untargeted LC-MS / MS as follows:1. Isolation of HLA ligands:HLA class I molecules were isolated using standard immunoaffinity purification, using the pan-HLA class I- specific mAb W6 / 32 (produced in-house) to extract HLA ligands.2. Analysis of HLA ligands by LC-MS / MS:HLA ligand extracts were analyzed in five technical replicates. In brief, peptide samples were separated by nanoflow high-performance liquid chromatography (RSLCnano, Thermo Fisher Scientific) using a 50pm x 25cm PepMap rapid separation liquid chromatography column (Thermo Fisher Scientific) and a gradient ranging from 2.4% to 32.0% acetonitrile over the course of 90min. Eluting peptides were analyzed in an online-coupled LTQ Orbitrap Fusion Lumos mass spectrometer (Thermo Fisher Scientific) using a top speed collision-induced dissociation fragmentation method.3. Database search and HLA annotation:The SEQUEST HT search engine (University of Washington) was used to search the human proteome as comprised in the Swiss-Prot database (20,279 reviewed protein sequences, September 27th 2013 with the R11047 sequence added) without enzymatic restriction. Precursor mass tolerance was set to 5ppm, and fragment mass tolerance to 0.02Da. Oxidized methionine was allowed as a dynamic modification. The false discovery rate (FDR) was estimated using the Percolator algorithm and limited to 5%. Peptide lengths were limited to 8-12 amino acids. HLA class I annotation was performed using NetMHCpan 4.1 and SYFPEITHI annotating peptides with scores or percentile rank below 2% or higher than 60, respectively.4. Label-free quantitation of HLA ligand presentation:LC-MS / MS analysis was performed in five technical replicates for each sample. Relative quantification of HLA ligands was performed based on the area of the corresponding precursor extracted ion chromatograms using ProteomeDiscoverer 1.4.1.14 (Thermo Fisher Scientific). High-quality peptide spectrum matches filtered for 5% FDR and subsequently screened for predicted HLA were used to generate seed lists for semi-quantitative volcano plot analysis. The sequences from these seed lists were then queried across all runs without applying any filtering for spectral quality criteria (XCorr, FDR) to extract areas for IDs not passing these thresholds. For Volcano plot analysis, peptides only found in one technical replicate were discarded and the sample-specific limit of detection (LOD) was calculated as the median of the five lowest areas and inserted for missing areas to allow for fold-change calculation of HLA ligands detected in only one of both conditions. Technical replicates as well as experiments / conditions were normalized based on the summed intensities of all identified precursors in each MS run. Subsequently, the ratios of the mean areas of the individual peptides in the five LFQ-MS runs of each sample were calculated and unpaired, heteroskedastic two-tailed t-tests implementing Benjamini-Hochberg correction were performed using an in-house R script (v3.2.3).Results:A high-level summary of the detected MHC-I peptides is shown in Table E5.#5% false discovery rate (FDR) was applied to reduce number of peptides.+Remaining peptides were filtered by Syfpeithi score >60% and / or NetMHC rank <2.0.* Same results with and without Syfpeithi / NetMHC filter.3 and 4 MHC-I peptides originating from the CVGBM fusion protein could be detected in THP1 and HEK293T cells, respectively, which is shown in Table E6. All of these peptides were identified in all 5 technical replicates (runs) of each sample.Table E6: Summary of detected MHC-I peptides derived from CVGBM fusion proteinStatistical analysis was performed as follows and is graphically depicted by the Volcano plots shown in Figure 14. 5 technical replicate LC-MS measurements were acquired per condition which allows statistical analysis. For each peptide in the two conditions compared (R11047 and control mRNA), the fold change of the area between conditions was calculated using a sample-specific limit of detection (LOD) if the peptide was only present in one condition. Due to the fact that 5 technical replicates for each condition were acquired, and peptides should / could be present in all replicates with a similar area, a statistical test can be performed: in this case a two tailed t-test corrected after Benjamini Hochberg for multiple testing. The resulting statistics are depicted in the volcano plots of Figure 14, which have to be interpreted as follows: y-axis shows log 10 of corrected p-value, which corresponds to significance of up / down modulation x-axis shows Iog2 of fold change of condition 1 compared to condition 2 (the Iog2 is used to represent the data symmetrically)upper left and upper right area represent individual peptide areas that were up / down modulated with a p-value <0.00...
