Vaccine Information |
- Vaccine Name: Recombinant Fowlpox-Mgp100 Vaccine
- Target Pathogen: Cancer
- Target Disease: Cancer
- Vaccine Ontology ID: VO_0007100
- Type: Recombinant vector vaccine
- Status: Clinical trial
- Host Species for Licensed Use: Human
- Host Species as Laboratory Animal Model: Human

- Description: This is for Melanoma Cancer. A vaccine consisting of a replication-defective recombinant fowlpox virus that encodes for the murine melanoma antigen glycoprotein 100 (mgp100) with potential antineoplastic activity. Vaccination with recombinant fowlpox-mgp100 vaccine may stimulate the host immune system to mount a cytotoxic T lymphocyte (CTL) response against tumor cells positive for the gp100 antigen, resulting in decreased tumor growth. (NCI04) (NCIT_C2805).
