Hla-restricted epitopes encoded by somatically mutated genes

Mutant epitopes encoded by cancer genes are virtually always located in the interior of cells, making them invisible to conventional antibodies. We generated single chain variable fragments (scFvs) specific for mutant peptides presented on the cell surface by human leukocyte antigen (HLA) molecules. These scFvs can be converted to full-length antibodies, termed MANAbodies, targeting “Mutation Associated Neo-Antigens” bound to HLA. A phage display library representing a highly diverse array of single-chain variable fragment sequences was first designed and constructed. A competitive selection protocol was then used to identify clones specific for peptides bound to pre-defined HLA types. In this way, we obtained scFvs, including one specific for a peptide encoded by a common KRAS mutant and another by a common EGFR mutant. Molecules targeting MANA can be developed that specifically react with mutant peptide-HLA complexes even when these peptides differ by only one amino acid from the normal, wild-type form.

HPV vaccine comprising peptides from host cell proteins

The present invention relates to a human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccine that comprises peptides from host cell proteins and more particularly, a vaccine that is directed against cancers that are associated with HPV infections, such as cervical cancer, head and neck cancer and skin cancers. The peptides comprise fragments of host cell proteins that have been targeted for degradation by HPV proteins, such as E6 and E7 and are presented on the surface of HPV infected cells in relatively large amounts. These peptides can be recognised by CTL and elicit an immune response, and are therefore ideal tumour-specific markers. The invention also relates to novel peptide: peptide complexes such as peptide / HLA complexes and their use in a tumour-specific vaccine.
