Provided herein are immunogenic compositions comprising a recombinant modified vaccinia virus Ankara (MVA) comprising a nucleic acid sequence encoding a CD40 ligand (CD4OL) and a nucleic acid sequence encoding a heterologous disease-associated antigen, wherein the immunogenic composition induces increases T-cell immune responses specific for the heterologous disease-associated antigen when administered to a human host, and related methods and uses.

The present invention relates to peptides, proteins, nucleic acids and cells for use in immunotherapeutic methods. In particular, the present invention relates to the immunotherapy of cancer. The present invention furthermore relates to tumor-associated T-cell peptide epitopes, alone or in combination with other tumor-associated peptides that can for example serve as active pharmaceutical ingredients of vaccine compositions that stimulate anti-tumor immune responses, or to stimulate T cells ex vivo and transfer into patients. Peptides bound to molecules of the major histocompatibility complex (MHC), or peptides as such, can also be targets of antibodies, soluble T-cell receptors, and other binding molecules.

The disclosure herein relates to immunotherapeutic compositions comprising immunotherapeutic peptides comprising neoepitopes. Also disclosed herein are polynucleotides encoding the immunotherapeutic peptides. Also disclosed herein are methods of synthesis of immunotherapeutic peptides comprising neoepitopes and use of the immunotherapeutic compositions including methods of treatment.

In certain embodiments, methods and compositions are provided for generating immune responses against tumor antigens such as antigens or epitopes of HER1, HER2/neu, HER3, HER4, or any combination thereof. In particular embodiments, there may be provided methods for constructing and producing recombinant adenovirus-based vector vaccines containing nucleic acid sequences encoding tumor antigens such as antigens or epitopes of HER1, HER2/neu, HER3, HER4, or any combination thereof, that allow for vaccinations in individuals with preexisting immunity to adenovirus.

Cancer is treated using coordinated treatment regimens that uses various compounds and compositions that drive a tumor from the escape phase of cancer immunoediting to the elimination and equilibrium phase of cancer immunoediting.
