Preferred Label : Renal Cell Carcinoma Peptides Vaccine IMA901;
NCIt definition : A multipeptide cancer vaccine targeting renal cell carcinoma with potential immunopotentiating
activity. Renal cell carcinoma peptides vaccine IMA901 consists of 10 different synthetic
tumor-associated peptide (TUMAP) antigens (9 HLA-class I-binding and 1 HLA class II-binding);
endogenously, these TUMAPs are expressed by the majority of renal cell carcinomas.
Vaccination with this agent may significantly increase host cytotoxic T-lymphocyte
(CTL) immune responses against tumor cells expressing these peptide antigens.;
