Vaccine Detail

HER2 ICD peptide vaccine
Vaccine Information
  • Type: Subunit vaccine
  • Status: Clinical trial
  • Host Species for Licensed Use: None
  • Antigen: HER-2/neu intracellular domain protein (NCT00343109)
  • Immunization Route: Intradermal injection (i.d.)
  • Description: Vaccines made from peptides may help the body build an effective immune response to kill tumor cells. Patients with HER2 positive locally advanced breast cancer can be vaccinated with a HER2 Intracellular Domain (ICD) peptide-based vaccine administered concurrently with trastuzumab. The vaccine may lead to an immune response (HER2 specific T cell immunity and/or the development of intramolecular epitope spreading). (NCT00343109)
