DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The objective of this project is to develop a therapeutic strategy for H|V-associated malignancy based on the role of HPV in the pathogenesis. HPV related cancers express the E6/E7 oncoproteins of HPV that are ideal targets for immune inducing vaccines. We will develop a vaccine based upon a novel adenovirus serotype-S vector (Ads) platform with unique and additional deletions of the viral DNA polymerase and the pre- terminal protein in the early gene 2b (E2b) region (Ads [E1-, E2b-]). In studies employing HIV antigens, we reported that the new Ad5 [E1-, E2b-]-HlV vector vaccine was superior to a current Ads [E1-]-H|V vector vaccine (containing deletion in the early gene 1 (E1) region) when used to induce CMI responses in a multiple immunization regimen. Significant antigen specific CMI responses were induced in mice and monkeys despite the presence of pre-existing AdS immunity. We will construct and produce an AdS [E1-, E2b-] vector vaccine that contains the HPV oncoproteins E6/E7 with non-oncogenic function. This new recombinant adenovirus will induce immune responses by expressing the modified HPV-E6/E7 antigens after direct transfection of antigen presenting cells. We will evaluate this in combination with a toll-like receptor agonist (TLRa) designed to enhance immune responses induced by the vaccine. Our pre-clinical data indicate that the AdS [E1-, E2b-] vec*or induces robust CMI responses against tumor associated antigen [fAA), even in the presence of pre- existing AdS immunity. In a murine cancer model employing the carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) gene insert, tl.g -CEA immunogenicity and in vivo anti-tumor effects of repeated immunizations with i new AdS [E1-, E2b-l- GEA were compared to those observed with a current generation Ads tE1-l-CEA. These AdS vectors were tested in a clinically relevant AdS immune setting. We observed that AdS immune mice immunized multiple times with AdS [E1-, E2b-]-CEA induced CEA-specific CMI responses that were significantly increased over those detected in AdS immune mice immunized multiple times with a current generation AdS tE1-l-CEA. Ads immune mice bearing CEA expressing tumors that were treated with AdS [E1-, E2b-J-CEA had an increased anti-tumor response as compared to AdS [E1-I-CEA treated mice. These results demonstrate that AdS [E1-, Ezb-l-CEA can induce CMI immune responses that result in tumor growth inhibition despite the presence of pre-existing AdS immunity. We have also utilized the Ads [E1-, Ezb-] vector platform expressing the TAA HER2lneu as a breast cancer immunotherapeutic agent. Ads [E1-, E2b-l-HERZlneu induced potent CMI against HER2/neu and significantly inhibited progression of established tumors in Ad5 immune mice. These data demonstrate that in vivo delivery of Ad5 [E1-, E2b-] vectors expressing TM can induce anti-TAA immunity and inhibit progression of tumors in AdS immune animals. PUBLIC HEALTH RELEVANCE: In this study, we will develop a new adenoviral based drug (AdS [E1-, E2b-I-HPV-E6/7) to treat HtV+ patients with HPv-associated oropharyngeal and tonsillar ,ncers. The treatment platform is needed to overcome pre-existing AdS immunity that has prevented the widespread use of this type of technology.

描述（由申请人提供）：该项目的目的是基于HPV在发病机理中的作用来制定H | V相关的恶性肿瘤的治疗策略。 HPV相关的癌症表达HPV的E6/E7癌蛋白，这是免疫诱导疫苗的理想靶标。我们将基于新型腺病毒血清型-s载体（ADS）平台开发一种疫苗，该平台具有独特的病毒DNA聚合酶的独特和其他缺失，以及早期基因2B（E2B）区域（ADS [E1-，E2B-]）中的末端蛋白质。在采用HIV抗原的研究中，我们报道了新的AD5 [E1-，E2B-] - HLV载体疫苗优于当前ADS [E1-] - H | V载体疫苗（含有早期基因1（E1）中的缺失时，当用于诱导多个免疫化调节中的CMI响应时。尽管存在先前存在的AD免疫，但在小鼠和猴子中诱导了明显的抗原特异性CMI反应。我们将构建和生产一个AD [E1-，E2B-]载体疫苗，其中包含具有非共同功能的HPV癌蛋白E6/E7。这种新的重组腺病毒将通过直接转染抗原呈递细胞后表达修饰的HPV-E6/E7抗原来诱导免疫反应。我们将与旨在增强疫苗诱导的免疫反应的Toll样受体激动剂（TLRA）结合进行评估。我们的临床前数据表明，即使在存在预先现有的ADS免疫力的情况下，ADS [E1-，E2B-] VEC*或诱导了与肿瘤相关抗原[FAA）的强大CMI反应。在采用癌症癌抗原（CEA）基因插入物（TL.G-CEA免疫原性）和体内反肿瘤效应的鼠类癌模型中，与I ADS反复免疫的体内抗肿瘤作用[E1-，E2B-L- GEA与现有ADS ADS ADS TE1-L-CEA相比。这些广告向量在临床相关的ADS免疫环境中进行了测试。我们观察到，ADS免疫小鼠用ADS [E1-，E2B-] - CEA诱导的CEA特异性CMI反应多次免疫小鼠，与ADS免疫小鼠中检测到的CMI特异性CMI反应显着增加，并用当前一代ADS TE1-L-CEA免疫多次免疫。与ADS [E1-I-I-CEA治疗的小鼠相比，AD表达肿瘤的ADS免疫小鼠表达肿瘤[E1-，E2B-J-CEA]的抗肿瘤反应增加。这些结果表明，尽管存在预先存在的AD免疫，但ADS [E1-，EZB-L-CEA可以诱导CMI免疫反应，导致肿瘤生长抑制。我们还利用了表达taa her2lneu作为乳腺癌免疫治疗剂的AD [E1-，EZB-]矢量平台。 ADS [E1-，E2B-L-HERZLNEU诱导HER​​2/NEU诱导有效的CMI，并显着抑制AD5免疫小鼠已建立的肿瘤的进展。这些数据表明，表达TM的AD5 [E1-，E2B-]向量的体内递送可以诱导ADS免疫动物中肿瘤的抗TAA免疫和抑制肿瘤的进展。 公共卫生相关性：在这项研究中，我们将开发一种新的基于腺病毒的药物（ADS [E1-，E2B-I-HPV-E6/7），以治疗HTV+与HPV相关的口咽和tonsillar，NCER的HTV+患者。需要该治疗平台来克服现有的广告免疫力，从而阻止了这种技术的广泛使用。
