- Preparation: The treatment combines the vaccination of a bacterial vector for NY-ESO-1 and the use of mTOR inhibitor Sirolimus (Thomas et al., 2018).
- Description: A cancer vaccine consisting of a replication-defective recombinant canarypox virus (ALVAC) encoding the cancer-testis antigen NY-ESO-1, with potential immunostimulatory and antineoplastic activities. Upon administration, ALVAC-ESO-1 vaccine may stimulate the host immune system to mount a cytotoxic T lymphocyte (CTL) response against NY-ESO-1-expressing cancer cells, which may result in the inhibition of tumor cell proliferation. NY-ESO-1, a tumor associated antigen (TAA), is found in normal testis and on the surface of various tumor cells. (NCIT_C90558).
This vaccine has been used in trials involving epithelial ovarian, fallopian tube, or primary peritoneal cancer. NCT01982487
