Preferred Label : pTVG-HP Plasmid DNA Vaccine;
NCIt definition : A cancer vaccine containing plasmid DNA encoding human prostatic acid phosphatase
(PAP) (pTVG-HP) with potential immunostimulatory and antineoplastic activities. Upon
administration, pTVG-HP plasmid DNA vaccine may stimulate the host immune system to
generate a cytotoxic T lymphocyte (CTL) response against PAP-expressing prostate cancer
cells. PAP or prostatic specific acid phosphatase (PSAP) is a tumor associated antigen
(TAA) that may be overexpressed in prostate cancer.;
