Vaccine Detail

hMART-IT
Vaccine Information
  • Vaccine Name: hMART-IT
  • Target Pathogen: Cancer
  • Target Disease: Cancer
  • Vaccine Ontology ID: VO_0007613
  • Type: Recombinant vector vaccine
  • Status: Clinical trial
  • Antigen: MART-1 (hMART-IT)
  • Immunization Route: Intramuscular injection (i.m.)
  • Description: Induces protective antimelanoma immunity in a B16F10 transplantable mouse model (Tanaka et al., 2011).
Host Response

Mouse Response

  • Vaccine Immune Response Type: VO_0003057
  • Immune Response: Although histological analysis demonstrated diffuse infiltration of CD4(+) T cells and CD8(+) T cells, no reduction of regulatory T cells was observed, suggesting that hMART-IT cannot prevent immunotolerance in the tumor microenvironment (Tanaka et al., 2011).
