Abstract: Described is a vaccine for prevention and treatment of cancer characterized by microsatellite instability (MSI). The vaccine contains an MSI-specific frameshift peptide (FSP) generating humoral and cellular responses against tumor cells or a nucleic acid encoding said FSP. The vaccine of the present invention is particularly useful for the prevention/treatment of colorectal cancer, endometrial cancer, gastric cancer or small bowel cancer.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a combined preparation comprising 2-deoxyglucose and a flavagline and to the use of said combined preparation as a medicament or in the treatment of cancer. Moreover, the present invention relates to a flavagline for use in a combination therapy against cancer comprising administration of 2-deoxyglucose; and to 2-deoxyglucose for use in a combination therapy against cancer comprising administration of a flavagline. Also, the present invention relates to methods for treating cancer and to processes for the preparation of a combined preparation according to the invention.

Abstract: Described are particular fragments of the cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor p16 capable of increasing IFN-? secretion of T cells or inducing proliferation of T cells and the use of said fragments for immunizing an individual against HPV-associated or other p16INK4a expressing carcinomas, preferably advanced carcinomas.

Abstract: The present invention provides a method for assessment of the Microsatellite Instability (MSI) status of medically relevant conditions associated with MSI phenotype such as e.g. neoplastic lesions. The method is based on the analysis of a monomorphic T25 (CAT25) mononucleotide repeat located in the 3?-UTR of the Caspase 2 (CASP2) gene. Based on the determination of the length of the named mononucleotide repeat the presence or absence of MSI may be assessed. Determination of the length is performed in a single PCR procedure. Alternatively an enhanced assessment could be performed by combining the CAT25 marker with further markers such as BAT25 and BAT26 in a single multiplex PCR process.
