The present invention relates to an RNA encoding a tumor antigen. In particular, the present invention relates to RNA suitable for treatment and/or prophylaxis of cancer and related diseases. The present invention concerns such RNA as well as compositions, vaccines and kits comprising the RNA. Furthermore, the present invention relates to the RNA, compositions, vaccines or kits as disclosed herein for use in the treatment and/or prophylaxis of cancer and related diseases.

Provided herein are recombinant fusion polypeptides comprising one or more antigenic peptides (e.g., fused to a PEST-containing peptide) from cancer-associated proteins. The antigenic peptides can comprise one or more or all of an antigenic peptide comprising a recurrent cancer mutation, an antigenic peptide comprising a heteroclitic mutation, or an antigenic peptide fused to a ubiquitin protein. For example, provided herein are recombinant fusion polypeptides comprising two or more antigenic peptides (e.g., fused to a PEST-containing peptide), wherein each antigenic peptide comprises a recurrent cancer mutation, and wherein at least two of the antigenic peptides are fragments of the same cancer-associated protein. Also provided are nucleic acids encoding such fusion polypeptides, recombinant bacteria or Listeria strains comprising such fusion polypeptides or such nucleic acids, and cell banks comprising such recombinant bacteria or Listeria strains. Also provided herein are methods of generating such fusion polypeptides, such nucleic acids, and such recombinant bacteria or Listeria strains. Also provided are immunogenic compositions, pharmaceutical compositions, and vaccines comprising such fusion polypeptides, such nucleic acids, or such recombinant bacteria or Listeria strains. Also provided are methods of inducing an anti-tumor-associated-antigen immune response in a subject, methods of inducing an anti-tumor or anti-cancer immune response in a subject, methods of treating a tumor or cancer in a subject, methods of preventing a tumor or cancer in a subject, and methods of protecting a subject against a tumor or cancer using such recombinant fusion polypeptides, nucleic acids, recombinant bacteria or Listeria strains, immunogenic compositions, pharmaceutical compositions, or vaccines.

The field of the present invention relates to immunotherapeutic peptides, peptide binding agents, and their use, for example, in the immunotherapy of cancer.

Disclosed are therapeutic means, protocols, and compositions of matter useful for treatment of cancer by eliciting and amplifying immune responses specific to antigens found on tumor endothelium. In one embodiment of the invention a patient is immunized with a polyvalent anti-angiogenic vaccine, subsequent to which assessment is made in a patient specific manner of the immune targets that are recognized in response to the immunizing mixture. Subsequently immune targets that are identified are chosen for antigen-specific immunization to amplify initial immune response stimulated by the polyvalent vaccination.
