Abstract: The invention pertains to the use of a tumor vaccine composed of two peptides of nine amino acids—the WT cryptic TERT572 (RLFFYRKSV, SEQ ID No: 1) expressed by tumor cells and its optimized variant TERT572Y (YLFFYRKSV, SEQ ID No: 2)—for treating cancer in a HLA-A*0201-positive patient having a non-immunogenic tumor expressing TERT.
