Vaccine Detail

Sargramostim Plasmid DNA Melanoma Vaccine Adjuvant
Vaccine Information
  • Vaccine Name: Sargramostim Plasmid DNA Melanoma Vaccine Adjuvant
  • Target Pathogen: Cancer
  • Target Disease: Cancer
  • Vaccine Ontology ID: VO_0007107
  • Type: DNA vaccine
  • Status: Clinical trial
  • Host Species for Licensed Use: Human
  • Host Species as Laboratory Animal Model: Human
  • CTLA4 gene engineering:
  • TNFRSF18 gene engineering:
  • Preparation: mRNA used encodes anti-CTLA4 mAbs and GITR-stimulating molecules (Pruitt et al., 2011).
  • Description: This is for Melanoma Cancer (NCT01216436). A vaccine adjuvant consisting of a plasmid DNA encoding sargramostim (a granulocyte macrophage-colony stimulating factor). Upon administration, expressed sargramostim may stimulate a cytotoxic T cell response enhancing the host immune response to a concomitantly administered melanoma vaccine (Gupta et al., 2015; NCIT_C2430).
