gene engineering:
- Preparation: Each dose of dHER2 immunotherapeutic contains 500 lg of dHER2, a fusion protein including the complete extracellular domain (ECD) and a truncated part of the intracellular domain (ICD) of the HER2 protein plus a fixed dose of AS15 (Curigliano et al., 2016).
- Description: This is for Breast Cancer (NCT00140738). A cancer vaccine consisting of a truncated recombinant HER2 peptide (dHER2) with potential antineoplastic activity. Upon administration, recombinant dHER2 vaccine may stimulate the host immune response to mount a cytotoxic T-lymphocyte response against tumor cells that overexpress the HER2 protein, resulting in tumor cell lysis. The HER2 protein is a tumor-associated antigen (TAA) that is overexpressed in a variety of cancers. dHER2 includes the extracellular domain (ECD) and a part of the intracellular domain (ICD) of the HER2 protein. (NCIT_C49177).
