Of these, GPC-3522-530 FLAELAYDL, fulfilled our criteria as a naturally processed, HLA-A2-restricted CTL epitope because: i) it was generated by the MHC class I processing pathway in DC transfected with GPC-3 mRNA, and ii) HLA-A2 positive, monocyte-derived DC loaded with the peptide stimulated proliferation in autologous T cells and generated CTL that lysed HLA-A2 and GPC-3 positive tumour cells. This evidence concerns the gene GYPC and neoplasm.
