54 15389286 Immunological properties and vaccine efficacy of murine dendritic cells simultaneously expressing melanoma-associated antigen and interleukin-12.
55 15389286 In the present study, in order to create a dendritic cell (DC)-based vaccine capable of positively skewing immune response toward a cellular immunity-dominant state, we analyzed immunological characteristics and vaccine efficacy of DCs cotransduced with melanoma-associated antigen (gp100) and IL-12 gene (gp100+IL12/DCs) by using RGD fiber-mutant adenovirus vector (AdRGD), which enables highly efficient gene transduction into DCs. gp100+IL12/DCs could simultaneously express cytoplasmic gp100 and secretory IL-12 at levels comparable to DCs transduced with each gene alone.
56 15389286 In comparison with DCs transduced with gp100 alone (gp100/DCs), upregulation of major histocompatibility complex class I, CD40, and CD86 molecules on the cell surface and more potent T-cell-stimulating ability for proliferation and interferon-gamma secretion were observed as characteristic changes in gp100+IL12/DCs.
57 15389286 In addition, administration of gp100+IL12/DCs, which were prepared by a relatively low dose of AdRGD-IL12, could induce more potent tumor-specific cellular immunity in the murine B16BL6 melanoma model than vaccination with gp100/DCs.
58 15389286 However, antitumor effect and B16BL6-specific cytotoxic T-lymphocyte activity in mice vaccinated with gp100+IL12/DCs diminished with increasing AdRGD-IL12 dose during gene transduction, and paralleled the decrease in presentation levels via MHC class I molecules for antigen transduced with another AdRGD.

67 15781661 Furthermore, a 30-fold increase in the frequency of melanoma-associated antigen (Trp-2 and gp100) specific T cells was observed in mice treated with the combination when compared with unvaccinated controls.
68 15781661 These data show that IFN-alpha combined with a granulocyte macrophage colony-stimulating factor-secreting tumor cell vaccine significantly enhances vaccine potency and may represent a potential new approach for tumor immunotherapy.

74 16165256 As a model epitope we chose L(27)Melan-A/Mart-1(26-35) HLA-A0201 restricted peptide from a melanoma-associated antigen widely used in tumor immunotherapy.
75 16227204 Therefore, in this study we have characterized the structural basis of the human high molecular weight-melanoma-associated antigen (HMW-MAA) mimicry by the mouse anti-idiotypic (anti-id) monoclonal antibody (mAb) MK2-23.
76 16278389 Immunization using autologous dendritic cells pulsed with the melanoma-associated antigen gp100-derived G280-9V peptide elicits CD8+ immunity.
77 16424053 We compared the in vivo immunogenicity of the melanoma-associated antigen Melan-A(26-35) encoded by third-generation recombinant lentivector (rec. lv) or as peptide admixed with a strong adjuvant.
78 16424053 Ex vivo analyses of immunized HLA-A2/H-2K(b) mice showed that rec. lv triggered a stronger anti-Melan-A CD8+ T -cell response than peptide vaccine.
79 16424054 In this study, we determine the ability of grp170 and its structural domains to (a) bind to and present melanoma-associated antigen gp100 to the immune system and (b) to bind to receptors on APCs.

82 16942445 Analysis of antitumor activity elicited by vaccination with combinations of interleukin-12 DNA with gp100 DNA or the chemokine CCL21 in vivo.
83 16942445 The antitumor efficacy of human melanoma-associated antigen (hgp100) and chemokine CCL21 in combination with interleukin-12 (IL-12) was evaluated in a syngeneic melanoma mouse model.
84 16942445 Coapplication of IL- 12 DNA with CCL21-encoding DNA (CCL21 DNA) or recombinant CCL21 (recCCL21) protein also showed some efficacy.
85 16942445 Triple therapy with IL-12 DNA, hgp100 DNA, and CCL21 DNA, however, showed less effect on tumor growth than double therapy with IL-12 DNA and hgp100 DNA.
86 16942445 These findings open a new route of investigation of IL-12 and gp100 or other tumor-associated antigens in the immunotherapy of a variety of tumors.
87 17589432 Synthetic melanoma-associated antigen MART1 mRNA was formulated with a polyethylene glycol (PEG)ylated derivative of histidylated polylysine and L-histidine-(N,N-di-n-hexadecylamine)ethylamide liposomes (termed histidylated lipopolyplexes).
88 17589432 MART1 mRNA lipopolyplexes elicited a cellular immune response characterized by the production of interferon-gamma and the induction of cytotoxic T lymphocytes.
89 17589432 Finally, the anti-B16 response was enhanced using a formulation containing both MART1 mRNA and MART1-LAMP1 mRNA encoding the antigen targeted to the major histocompatibility complex class II compartments by the lysosomal sorting signal of LAMP1 protein.
90 18299892 Immune recognition toward tyrosinase-related protein-1 (TRP-1), a melanoma associated antigen up-regulated on the surface of B16F10 melanomas, generally leads to tumor protection mediated by Abs.
91 18299892 In this study, immunization with dendritic cells ex vivo transduced with adenovirus encoding TRP-1 stimulates immune activation and potent tumor protection mediated by CD8 T cells in the absence of autoimmune consequence.
92 18299892 The immune activation and CD8 T cell mediated tumor protection rely on the CD4 T cell help.
93 18299892 Thus DC based genetic immunization targeting TRP-1, an antigen usually causes Ab predominant immune recognition, is capable of stimulating potent tumor protection dependent on CD8 T cells in the absence of autoimmunity.
94 18520304 This article reviews the following seven vaccines, which have entered randomized trials: L-BLP25 (Stimuvax), BEC-2, 1E10, PF-3512676 (Promune), melanoma-associated antigen A3 immunotherapeutic, granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor-transduced allogeneic cancer cellular immunotherapy, and belagenpumatucel-L (Lucanix).
95 18540532 These vaccines target 2 antigens widely expressed in lung carcinomas: melanoma-associated antigen 3, a cancer testis antigen; and mucin 1, an antigen overexpressed in a largely deglycosylated form in advanced tumors.
96 18540532 Therapeutic cancer vaccines aim at inducing strong CD8 and CD4 T-cell responses.
97 18829565 The high molecular weight melanoma-associated antigen (HMW-MAA), also known as melanoma chondroitin sulfate proteoglycan, has been used as a target for the immunotherapy of melanoma.
98 18829565 Immunization with Lm-LLO-HMW-MAA-C was able to impede the tumor growth of early established B16F10-HMW-MAA tumors in mice and both CD4(+) and CD8(+) T cells were required for therapeutic efficacy.
99 18829565 Surprisingly, this vaccine also significantly impaired the in vivo growth of other tumorigenic cell lines, such as melanoma, renal carcinoma, and breast tumors, which were not engineered to express HMW-MAA.
100 18829565 In a breast tumor model, immunization with Lm-LLO-HMW-MAA-C caused CD8(+) T-cell infiltration in the tumor stroma and a significant decrease in the number of pericytes in the tumor blood vessels.
101 21157438 Consequently, the cytosolic DNA sensor, DNA-dependent activator of interferon (IFN) regulatory factors (DAI), was used as a genetic adjuvant.
102 21157438 In vivo electroporation (EP) of mice with a DAI-encoding plasmid (pDAI) promoted transcription of genes encoding type I IFNs, proinflammatory cytokines, and costimulatory molecules.
103 21157438 Moreover, codelivery of pDAI effectively promoted CTL and CD4(+) Th1 responses to the TAA survivin.
104 21157438 The DAI-enhanced CTL induction required nuclear factor κB (NF-κB) activation and type I IFN signaling, but did not involve the IFN regulatory factor 3 (IRF3).
105 21157438 Codelivery of pDAI also increased CTL responses to the melanoma-associated antigen tyrosinase-related protein-2 (TRP2), enhanced tumor rejection and conferred long-term protection against B16 melanoma challenge.
106 21189474 Intradermal vaccinations with RNA coding for TAA generate CD8+ and CD4+ immune responses and induce clinical benefit in vaccinated patients.
107 21189474 The aim of this phase I/II nonrandomized trial was to assess feasibility, safety as well as immunological and clinical responses of a mRNA-based vaccination in patients with stage IV renal cell cancer using granulocyte-macrophage colony stimulating factor (GM-CSF) as adjuvant.
108 21189474 Intradermal injections of in vitro transcribed naked mRNA, which was generated using plasmids coding for the tumor-associated antigens mucin 1(MUC1), carcinoembryonic (CEA), human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (Her-2/neu), telomerase, survivin, and melanoma-associated antigen 1 (MAGE-A1) were performed in 30 enrolled patients.
109 21189474 Induction of CD4(+) and CD8(+) T cell responses was shown for several tumor-associated antigens (TAA) using interferon-γ (IFN-γ) enzyme-linked immunosorbent spot (ELISpot) and Cr-release assays.
110 21221122 Antigen-coupled VLPs and murine ovalbumin-specific and human melanoma-associated antigen recognized by T cells (MART-1)-specific CD8(+) T cells were used to demonstrate cross-presentation via this alternate, receptor recycling pathway, which operated independently of the proteasome and the transporter-associated with antigen presentation.
111 21573118 Specificity of mimotope-induced anti-high molecular weight-melanoma associated antigen (HMW-MAA) antibodies does not ensure biological activity.
112 21573118 In our previous work, we designed a vaccine based on a mimotope of the high molecular weight-melanoma associated antigen (HMW-MAA) that elicited HMW-MAA-specific antibodies (Abs) with anti-tumor activity in vitro and in vivo.
113 21573118 Specificity of mimotope-induced anti-high molecular weight-melanoma associated antigen (HMW-MAA) antibodies does not ensure biological activity.
114 21573118 In our previous work, we designed a vaccine based on a mimotope of the high molecular weight-melanoma associated antigen (HMW-MAA) that elicited HMW-MAA-specific antibodies (Abs) with anti-tumor activity in vitro and in vivo.
115 22110233 Importantly, T-cell responses were positive towards DCs pulsed with several synthetic peptides including Carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA), Melanoma associated antigen (MAGE)1 and MAGE3.
116 22722447 Lipid bodies do not contain the melanoma-associated antigen MART-1.
117 22722447 However, when a maturation cocktail composed of TNF-alpha, IL-6, IL-1beta and prostaglandin E2 is added to the coculture, the tumor cells clumps disaggregate, dendritic cells remain free in suspension and their ability to efficiently stimulate allogeneic lymphocytes is restored.
118 22918925 These include liposomal BLP25 vaccine (L-BLP25), which targets mucin 1, and melanoma-associated antigen 3 (MAGE-A3) antigen-specific cancer immunotherapeutic (ASCI), which targets MAGE-A3, a peptide expressed almost exclusively on tumour cells.
119 23401435 Blocking inhibitory pathways via monoclonal antibodies, such as the anti-cytotoxic T-lymphocyte antigen-4 antibody (ipilimumab), anti-programmed cell death-1 antibody (BMS-936558), and anti-programmed cell death-1 ligand antibody (BMS-936559), has the ability to break down the shield that tumors co-opt for their defense.
120 23401435 Newer vaccines, particularly the tumor cell vaccine, belagenpumatucel-L, and the antigen-specific vaccines, melanoma-associated antigen-A3, liposomal BLP-25, TG4010, and recombinant human epidermal growth factor, are being evaluated in some of the largest trials ever attempted in lung cancer therapy.
121 24633336 P53, hTERT, WT-1, and VEGFR2 are the most suitable targets for cancer vaccine therapy in HLA-A24 positive pancreatic adenocarcinoma.
122 24633336 All TAAs were frequently expressed in pancreatic adenocarcinoma cells, except for adenocarcinoma antigens recognized by T cells 1, melanoma-associated antigen (MAGE)-A1, and MAGE-A3.
123 24633336 Among the epitopes recognized by CTLs in more than two patients in the ELISPOT assay, 6 epitopes derived from 5 TAAs, namely, MAGE-A3, p53, human telomerase reverse transcriptase (hTERT), Wilms tumor (WT)-1, and vascular endothelial growth factor receptor (VEGFR)2, could induce specific CTLs that showed cytotoxicity against pancreatic cancer cell lines.
124 24633336 P53, hTERT, WT-1, and VEGFR2 were shown to be attractive targets for immunotherapy in patients with pancreatic adenocarcinoma, and the induction of TAA-specific CTLs may improve the prognosis of these patients.

126 25030654 In the adjuvant setting, MAGE-A3, an antigen-based vaccine, showed promising results in melanoma-associated antigen A3 positive lung cancer patients who underwent resection in the phase II study; however, no improvement in progression-free survival was observed in the phase III MAGRIT study.
127 25419128 Targeting human dendritic cells via DEC-205 using PLGA nanoparticles leads to enhanced cross-presentation of a melanoma-associated antigen.
128 25419128 In addition, the DEC-205-labeled nanoparticles rapidly escape from the DC endosomal compartment and do not colocalize with markers of early (EEA-1) or late endosome/lysosome (LAMP-1).
129 25806276 Immune checkpoint therapies include the monoclonal antibody blockade of the cytotoxic T-lymphocyte antigen-4 (CTLA-4) with ipilimumab, as well as antibody blockade of the programmed cell death-1 (PD-1) receptor and the PD-1 ligand.
130 25806276 In lung cancer, these include the melanoma-associated antigen-A3 (MAGE-A3), membrane-associated glycoprotein (MUC-1), and the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR).
131 25863743 Efficient induction of anti-tumor immune response in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma via dendritic cells expressing MAGE-A3 and CALR antigens.
132 25863743 Recent studies have suggested that melanoma-associated antigen 3 (MAGE-A3) is a potential immunotherapeutic target and also a candidate for the development of an anti-tumor vaccine.
133 25863743 Therefore, in this study, we overexpressed MAGE-A3 and CALR on DCs and studied their potential to generate anti-tumor immune responses.
134 25863743 We observed that adenovirus (Ad)-infected DCs overexpressing CALR and MAGE-A3 showed enhanced expression of CD80, CD83, CD86, and HLA-DR markers.
135 25863743 Furthermore, CALR/MAGE-A3-infected DCs stimulated CD8(+) cytotoxic T lymphocytes, which in turn secreted higher levels of interferon-γ, which induced cytotoxic effects on ESCC cells expressing MAGE-A3.
136 25993655 Identification of DRG-1 As a Melanoma-Associated Antigen Recognized by CD4+ Th1 Cells.
137 25993655 To this end, we describe the identification of developmentally regulated GTP-binding protein 1 (DRG-1) as a melanoma-associated antigen recognized by HLA-DR11-restricted CD4(+) Th1 cells.
138 25993655 Taken together, these data suggest that DRG-1 plays an important role in melanoma cell growth and transformation, indicating that DRG1 may represent a novel target for CD4(+) T cell-mediated immunotherapy in melanoma.
139 25993655 Identification of DRG-1 As a Melanoma-Associated Antigen Recognized by CD4+ Th1 Cells.
140 25993655 To this end, we describe the identification of developmentally regulated GTP-binding protein 1 (DRG-1) as a melanoma-associated antigen recognized by HLA-DR11-restricted CD4(+) Th1 cells.
141 25993655 Taken together, these data suggest that DRG-1 plays an important role in melanoma cell growth and transformation, indicating that DRG1 may represent a novel target for CD4(+) T cell-mediated immunotherapy in melanoma.
142 26232492 Compared with placebo, belagenpumatucel-L (an allogenic tumor cell vaccine), tecemotide (a peptide vaccine targeting MUC-1) and melanoma-associated antigen-A3 (a protein-based vaccine) did not improve outcomes in NSCLC.
