得克萨斯州圣安东尼奥市圣安东尼奥军人医疗中心的Erika J. Schneble汇报了这项有关粒细胞巨噬细胞集落刺激因子（GM-CSF）联合GP2（一种来源于HER2的用以刺激CD8+T细胞识别HER2+肿瘤细胞的免疫原性肽）II期试验的初级分析结果。HER2是乳腺癌中常见的肿瘤相关抗原，是免疫治疗的一个新兴治疗靶点。

Dr. Schneble及其他研究人员完成了这项有关GP2疫苗预防乳腺癌复发的前瞻性、随机、多中心、II期临床试验项目，共计89例患者接受了疫苗接种；研究另外纳入了91例患者作为对照，仅接受了GM-CSF。

Dr. Schneble总结道，GP2疫苗的安全性和耐受性良好。鉴于迄今为止符合方案人群中尚无复发病例，因而HER2过表达的肿瘤患者或能从中获得更大受益。Dr. Schneble向Practice Update透露：“这个结果很可能与联合使用了曲妥珠单抗有关，有待进行一项III期临床试验以评估疫苗与佐剂共同给药在HER2过表达女性患者中的应用。6 e6 @( u- z! h( m

Erika J. Schneble, DO, of San Antonio Military Medical Center, San Antonio, Texas, presented a primary analysis of the phase 2 trial of granulocyte macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF) plus GP2, a HER2-derived immunogenic peptide designed to stimulate CD8+T cells to recognize HER2+ tumor cells. Since HER2 is a commonly expressed tumor-associated antigen in breast cancer, it is an attractive target for immunotherapy.; n* k0 {! U( @* K; W3 w2 z0 W

A total of 89 patients have been vaccinated and 91 patients are serving as controls, having received GM-CSF alone.

Only one grade 3 local and systemic toxicity reaction has been reported with the vaccine. At 34 (1 – 60) month median follow-up, disease-free survival (DFS) was comparable in the intent-to-treat and per-protocol populations. In patients whose tumors overexpress HER2 (51 vaccinated and 50 control patients), DFS in the intent-to-treat group was comparable at 94% in vaccinated and 89% in control subjects. In the per-protocol group, DFS was 100% in vaccinated, and 89% in control subjects (P = 0.08).

Dr. Schneble concluded that the GP2 vaccine is safe and well tolerated. Patients whose tumors overexpress HER2 may experience a potentially greater benefit, since to date no recurrences have occurred in this per-protocol group. Dr. Schneble told Practice Update that she attributes this possibility to synergism with trastuzumab therapy, which justifies a phase 3 trial evaluating the vaccine administered in the adjuvant setting to a population of women with HER2-overexpressing tumors.
