  • Patent number: 12622926
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a method for selecting a tumor neoantigenic peptide wherein said method comprises: —a step of identifying, among mRNA sequences from cancer cells of a subject, a fusion transcript sequence comprising a transposable element (TE) sequence and an exonic sequence, and including an open reading frame (ORF), and—a step of selecting a tumor neoantigenic peptide of at least 8 amino acids, encoded by a part of said ORF of the fusion transcript sequence, wherein said ORF overlaps the junction between the TE and the exonic sequence, is pure TE and/or is non-canonical, and wherein said tumor neoantigenic peptide binds to at least one Major Histocompatibility Complex (MHC) molecule of said subject. The present disclosure also relates to tumor neoantigenic peptide obtained according to the present method, vaccine or immunogenic composition, antibodies and immune cells derived thereof and their use in therapy of cancer.

  • Publication number: 20250352577
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides tumor neoantigenic peptide sequences and nucleotide sequences encoding such peptide sequences; a vaccine or immunogenic composition capable of raising a specific T-cell response comprising one or more of the neoantigenic peptides, or comprising nucleic acid encoding one or more of the neoantigenic peptides; an antibody, or an antigen-binding fragment thereof, a T cell receptor (TCR), or a chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) that specifically binds such neoantigenic peptides; methods of producing such antibodies, TCRs or CARs; polynucleotides encoding such neoantigenic peptides, antibodies, CARs or TCRs, optionally linked to a heterologous regulatory control sequence; immune cells that specifically bind to such neoantigenic peptides; and dendritic cells or antigen presenting cells that have been pulsed with one or more of the neoantigenic peptides; and methods of using such products in particular therapeutic uses of these products.
