Target
N/A
Molecular classification
Tumor-Associated Antigen, Cancer-Testis Antigen, Apoptosis Inhibitor (Survivin), Transcription Factor (MAGE-A4, SSX2, PRAME), Cellular Antigen
01

Overview

Multiple tumor-associated and cancer-testis antigens (TAAs/CTAs) including Survivin, NY-ESO-1, MAGE-A4, SSX2, and PRAME are a group of proteins overexpressed in various cancers with limited expression in normal tissues. They are attractive targets for cancer immunotherapy due to their immunogenicity and role in tumor cell survival and proliferation. Targeting these antigens aims to elicit anti-tumor immune responses, but potential safety concerns and variable efficacy remain challenges.
