[Object] To provide a novel examination method for a cancer treatment effect, screening method for a peptide for a cancer vaccine, and peptide and composition for inducing an immune response against cancer. [Solving Means] Provided are an examination method for a cancer treatment effect and a screening method for a peptide for a cancer vaccine each including detecting an antibody against a cancer/testis antigen or an anti-p53 antibody in a sample. It is suitable that an anti-XAGE1 antibody (IgG and/or IgA) be detected, or an anti-NY-ESO-1 antibody (IgG) be detected. Also provided are a novel peptide and novel composition for inducing immune responses against cancer.

A cancer vaccine composition for human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-A*0206-positive persons, comprising a protein product of the tumor suppressor gene WT1 or a partial peptide thereof.

A cancer vaccine composition for human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-A*0206-positive persons, comprising a protein product of the tumor suppressor gene WT1 or a partial peptide thereof.

The present invention provides methods and compositions involving microbiome signatures and their association with oral complications of cancer therapy.

Methods for detecting the presence of proteins in a subject are described. The proteins detected can be indicative of acute myeloid leukemia (AML). The proteins can be particularly useful for monitoring minimal residual disease (MRD) in AML.

Methods of treating a tumor in a subject and methods of determining a treatment regimen for a subject with a tumor are provided herein. In exemplary aspects, the methods comprise measuring the level of expression of immunoglobulin, FCGR2B, a gene listed in Table 4, or a combination thereof. In exemplary aspects, the subject is a subject from which a sample was obtained, wherein the level of immunoglobulin, FCGR2B, a gene listed in Table 4, or a combination thereof, has been measured from the sample. Related kits, computer readable-storage media, systems, and methods implemented by a processor in a computer are further provided.

Materials and methods for treating potentially chemoresistant tumors (e.g., using DNA-PKcs inhibitors and anti-B7-H1 antibodies) are provided herein.

Materials and methods for treating potentially chemoresistant tumors (e.g., using DNA-PKcs inhibitors and anti-B7-H1 antibodies) are provided herein.

The present invention provides novel compounds comprising an antigen of AML cells, and uses thereof.

The invention provides novel compositions and methods for the treatment of Radiation-Induced Bystander Effects (RIBE), resulting from radiation exposure. In one preferred embodiment the inventions includes novel therapeutic agents, including but not limited to quercetin and quercetin analogs, as well as E64, CA074, CA074Me, that interfere with the activity of Cathepsin B.
