Description

-1 Description PEPTIDE VACCINES FOR CANCERS EXPRESSING TUMOR-ASSOCIATED ANTIGENS This application is a divisional of Australian Application No. 2008218463, the entire contents of which are incorporated herein by reference. Technical Field [0001] The present application claims the benefit of U.S. Provisiona Application No. 60/902,949, filed February 21,2007, the entire disclosure of which is hereby in corporated herein by eference for all purposes. (0002] The present invention relates to the field of biological science, more specifically to the field of cancer therapy. In particular, the present invention relates to novel in munogenic peptides that serve as extremely effective as cancer vaccines, and drugs for treating and preventing tumors containing such peptides. Background Art [00031 It has been demonstrated that CD8+ cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTLs) recognize epitope peptides derived from tumor-associated antigens (TAAs) presented on MHC class I molecules, and subsequently lyse the tumor cells. Since the discovery of the MAGE family as the first example of TAAs, many other TAAs have been discovered using immunological approaches (Boon T.. (1993) Int J Cancer 54: 177-80.; Boon T. et al., (1996)1 Exp Med 183: 725-9.; van der Bruggen P et al, (1991) Science 254: 1643-7.; Brichard V et al., (1993) J Exp Med 178: 489-95.; Kawakami Y et al., (1994) J Exp Med 180:'347-52.). Some of them are now in clinical development as targets of immunotherapy. TAAs discovered to date include MAGE (van der Bruggen P et aL, (1991) Science 254: 1643-7.), gp100 (Kawakami Y et aL, (1994) JExp Med 180: 347-52.), SART (Shichijo S et al, (1998) JExp Med 187:277-88.), and NY-ESO-1 (Chen Y.T. et al., (1997) Proc. Natil. Acd. Sci. USA,,94:1914-8.). On the other hand, certain gene products demonstrated to be somewhat specifically over-expressed in tomor cells have been shown to be recognized as targets for inducing cellular immune responses. Such gene products include p53 (Umano Y et al., (2001) Br J Cancer, 84:1052-7.), HER2/neu (Tanaka H et al., (2001) Br J Cancer, 84:94-9.), CEA (Nukaya Iet al., (1999) Int. J. Cancer 80, 92-7.) and the like [0004] Despite significant progress in basic and clinical research concerning TAAs (Rosenberg SA et al., (1998) Nature Med, 4:321-7.; Mukherji B. et al., (1995) Proc Nati Acad Sci USA, 92: 8078-82.: Hu X et al, (1996) Cancer Res, 56:2479-83.), only a very limited number of candidate TAAs suitable for treatment of cancers are presently available. TAAs that are abundantly expressed in cancer cells, and whose ex pression is restricted to cancer cells, would be promising candidates as inununo therapeutic targets.

H: \aar\lnterwoven\NRPortbl\DCC\AAR\9637143_1.DOC-29/02/2016 -2 [0005] Both HLA-A24 and HLA-A0201 are common HLA alleles in the Japanese and Caucasian populations (Date Y et al., (1996) Tissue Antigens 47: 93-101.; Kondo A et al., (1995) J Immunol 155: 4307-12.; Kubo RT et al., (1994) J Immunol 152: 3913-24.; Imanishi et al., Proceeding of the eleventh International Histocompatibility Workshop and Conference Oxford University Press, Oxford, 1065 (1992); Williams F et al., (1997) Tissue Antigen 49: 129-33.). Thus, antigenic peptides of cancers presented by these HLA alleles may find particular utility in the treatment of cancers among Japanese and Caucasian patients. Further, it is known that the induction of low-affinity CTL in vitro usually results from exposure to high concentrations of peptides, generating a high level of specific peptide/MHC complexes on antigen-presenting cells (APCs), which will effectively activate these CTL (Alexander Miller et al., (1996) Proc Natl Acad Sci USA 93: 4102-7.). [0006] Recently, HLA class I-binding peptide sequence can be expected using algorithms (Journal of Immunological Methods, (1995), Vol.185, pp.181-190, J. Immunol., (1994), Vol.152, pp.163-175, protein science, (2000), Vol.9, pp.1838-1846). However, it is hard to say that the expected epitope peptide can be cut to the size and expressed on the target cell surface with HLA molecule and recognized by CTL. Moreover, the algorithm, for example BIMAS (http://bimas.dcrt.nih.gov/cgi bin/molbio/kenparkercomboform) (Parker KC, et al., (1994) J Immunol.;152(1):163-75.; Kuzushima K, et al., (2001) Blood.;98(6):1872-8 1.)) can suggest the HLA molecule-binding peptide, but the suggested peptide is not so rigorous (Bachinsky MM, et. al., Cancer Immun. 2005 Mar 22;5:6.). Thus TAA screening still remains a lot of challenges and difficulties. [0007] Recent developments in cDNA microarray technologies have enabled the construction of comprehensive profiles of gene expression in malignant cells as compared to normal cells (Okabe, H. et al., (2001) Cancer Res., 61, 2129-37.; Lin YM. et al., (2002) Oncogene, 21;4120-8.; Hasegawa S. et al., (2002) Cancer Res 62:7012-7.). This approach enables a more thorough understanding of the complex nature of cancer cells and the mechanisms of carcinogenesis and facilitates the identification of genes whose expression is deregulated in tumors (Bienz M. et al., (2000) Cell 103, 311-20.). Among the transcripts identified as up-regulated in cancers, CDH3 (GenBank Accession No. NM_001793; SEQ ID Nos.1, 2), EPHA4 (GenBank Accession No. L3 6645; SEQ ID Nos.3, 4), ECT2 (GenBank Accession No. AY376439; SEQ ID Nos.5, 6), HIG2 (GenBank Accession No. NM_013332; SEQ ID Nos.7, 8) 1NHBB (GenBank Accession No. NM_002193; SEQ ID Nos.9, 10), KIF20A (GenBank Accession No. NM_005733; SEQ ID Nos.11, 12), KNTC2 (GenBank Accession No. AF017790; SEQ ID Nos.13, 14), TTK (GenBank Accession No. NM_003318; SEQ IDNos.15, 16) and URLC1O (GenBank Accession No. NM_017527; SEQ ID Nos.17, 18) have been H: \aar\lnterwoven\NRPortbl\DCC\AAR\9637143_1.DOC-29/02/2016 -3 recently discovered. The entire contents of the references are incorporated by reference herein. These genes are of particular interest to the present inventors, being specifically up-regulated in tumor cells of the various cancer tissues ofthe cases analyzed (see below). Thus, immunogenic peptides derived from CDH3, EPHA4, ECT2, HIG2, INHBB, KIF20A, KNTC2, TTK and URLC10 may find utility in selectively killing tumor cells that express such antigens. The present invention addresses these and other needs. [0008] Since cytotoxic drugs, such as M-VAC, often cause severe adverse reactions, it is clear that thoughtful selection of novel target molecules on the basis of well-characterized mechanisms of action should be very helpful in the development of effective anti-cancer drugs having a minimized risk of side effects. Toward this goal, expression profile analyses were previously performed on various cancers and normal human tissue. Such studies led to the discovery of multiple genes that are specifically over-expressed in cancer (Lin YM, et al., Oncogene. 2002 Jun 13;21:4120-8.; Kitahara 0, et al., Cancer Res. 2001 May 1;61:3544-9.; Suzuki C, et al., Cancer Res. 2003 Nov 1;63:7038-41.; Ashida S, Cancer Res. 2004 Sep 1;64:5963-72.; Ochi K, et al., Int J Oncol. 2004 Mar;24(3):647-55.; Kaneta Y, et al., Int J Oncol. 2003 Sep;23:681-91.; Obama K, Hepatology. 2005 Jun;41:1339-48.; Kato T, et al., Cancer Res. 2005 Jul 1;65:5638-46.; Kitahara 0, et al., Neoplasia. 2002 Jul-Aug;4:295-303.; Saito-Hisaminato A et al., DNA Res 2002, 9: 35-45.). Examples of such genes identified as over expressed in various cancers include, but are not limited to, CDH3, EPHA4, ECT2, HIG2, INHBB, KIF20A, KNTC2, TTK and URLC10. CDH3 has been previously identified as over-expressed in bladder cancer, cervical cancer, cholangiocellular carcinoma, colorectal cancer, endometriosis, gastric cancer, diffuse-type gastric cancer, non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), pancreatic cancer, soft tissue tumor and testicular tumor. EPHA4 has been identified in bladder cancer, cervical cancer, cholangiocellular carcinoma, endometriosis, diffuse-type gastric cancer, ovarian cancer, pancreatic cancer, prostate cancer and soft tissue tumor. ECT2 has been identified in bladder cancer, breast cancer, cervical cancer, cholangiocellular carcinoma, chronic myeloid leukemia (CML), colorectal cancer, esophageal cancer, NSCLC, lymphoma, prostate cancer, renal carcinoma and small cell lung cancer (SCLC). HIG2 has been identified in renal carcinoma and SCLC. INHBB has been identified in cholangiocellular carcinoma, esophageal cancer, NSCLC, renal carcinoma, SCLC and soft tissue tumor. KIF20A has been identified in bladder cancer, breast cancer, cholangiocellular carcinoma, esophageal cancer, NSCLC, pancreatic cancer, prostate cancer, renal carcinoma and SCLC. KNTC2 has been identified in bladder cancer, breast cancer, cervical cancer, cholangiocellular carcinoma, CML, colorectal cancer, esophageal cancer, NSCLC, lymphoma, osteosarcoma, ovarian H: \aar\lnterwoven\NRPortbl\DCC\AAR\9637143_1.DOC-29/02/2016 -4 cancer, pancreatic cancer, prostate cancer, renal carcinoma, SCLC and soft tissue tumor. TTK has been identified in bladder cancer, breast cancer, cervical cancer, cholangiocellular carcinoma, CML, colorectal cancer, esophageal cancer, liver cancer, NSCLC, lymphoma, osteosarcoma, prostate cancer, SCLC and soft tissue tumor. URLC1O has been identified in bladder cancer, cervical cancer, cholangiocellular carcinoma, esophageal cancer, gastric cancer, NSCLC, osteosarcoma, pancreatic cancer and SCLC. [0009] Summary of the Invention The present invention is based in part on the discovery of the applicable targets of immunotherapy. Because TAAs have often no immunogenicity, the discovery of appropriate targets is of extreme importance. As noted above, CDH3, EPHA4, ECT2, HIG2, INHBB, KIF20A, KNTC2, TTK and URLC 10 have been identified as up-regulated in various cancers.

HIG2 expression is validly elevated in 19 out of 20 renal cancer and 7 out of 9 soft tissue tumor. INHBB expression is validly elevated in 10 out of 21 cholangiocellular carcinoma, all of 12 esophageal cancer, 10 out of 13 NSCLC, 22 out of 24 renal carcinoma, 8 out of 14 SCLC cancer and 45 out of 49 soft tissue tumor. KIF20A expression is validly elevated in all of 31 bladder cancer, 38 out of 61 breast H: \aar\lnterwoven\NRPortbl\DCC\AAR\9637143_1.DOC-29/02/2016 -5 cancer, 10 out of 11 cholangiocellular carcinoma, 7 out of 19 esophageal cancer, 21 out of 22 NSCLC, all of 6 ovarian cancer, 17 out of 36 prostate cancer, 6 out of 11 renal carcinoma and all of 15 SCLC. KNTC2 expression is validly elevated in 30 out of 32 bladder cancer, 47 out of 56 breast cancer, all of 10 cervical cancer, 16 out of 22 cholangiocellular carcinoma, 17 out of 37 CML, 3 out of 10 colorectal cancer, 11 out of 46 esophagus cancer, 15 out of 19 NSCLC, 7 out of 8 lymphoma, 20 out of 24 osteosarcoma, 3 out of 5 ovarian cancer, all of 2 pancreatic cancer, 15 out of 37 prostate cancer, 14 out of 19 renal carcinoma, all of 15 SCLC and 40 out of 59 soft tissue tumor. TTK expression is validly elevated in all of 27 bladder cancer, 25 out of 30 breast cancer, 15 out of 16 cervical cancer, all of 10 cholangiocellular carcinoma, 5 out of 7 CML, 6 out of 10 colorectal cancer, 24 out of 44 esophageal cancer, 8 out of 15 liver cancer, all of 12 NSCLC, all of 6 lymphoma, 13 out of 16 osteoblastoma, 12 out of 17 prostate cancer, all of 15 SCLC and 16 out of 33 soft tissue tumor. URLC 10 expression is validly elevated in all of 29 bladder cancer, 15 out of 16 cervical cancer, all of 7 cholangiocellular carcinoma, 7 out of 19 esophageal cancer, all of 3 gastric cancer, 24 out of27 NSCLC, 15 out of 19 osteosarcoma, 4 out of 5 pancreatic cancer, 33 out of 43 soft tissue tumor. [0011] The present invention is based, at least in part, on the identification of specific epitope peptides ofthe gene products of these genes (CDH3, EPHA4, ECT2, HIG2, INHBB, KIF20A, KNTC2, TTK and URLC10) which possess the ability to induce cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTLs) specific to the corresponding molecules. As discussed in detail below, Peripheral Blood Mononuclear Cells (PBMC) of healthy donor were stimulated using HLA-A*2402 or HLA-A* 0201 binding candidate peptides derived from CDH3, EPHA4, ECT2, HIG2, INHBB, KIF20A, KNTC2, TTK or URLC 10. CTL clones and/or lines were then established with specific cytotoxicity against the HLA-A24 or HLA-A2 positive target cells pulsed with each of the candidate peptides. These results demonstrate that these peptides are HLA-A24 or HLA-A2 restricted epitope peptides that can induce potent and specific immune responses against cells expressing CDH3, EPHA4, ECT2, HIG2, INHBB, KIF20A, KNTC2, TTK or URLC 10. [0012] Accordingly, the present invention provides methods for treating or preventing a disease associated with the over-expression of CDH3, EPHA4, ECT2, HIG2, INHBB, KIF20A, KNTC2, TTK or URLC 10, e.g. cancer. Such methods involve the step of administering to a subject in need thereof a CDH3, EPHA4, ECT2, HIG2, INHBB, KIF20A, KNTC2, TTK and/or URLC 10 polypeptides of the invention. Administration of such peptide(s) results in the induction of anti-tumor immunity. Thus, the present invention provides methods for inducing anti-tumor immunity in a subject, such methods involving the step of admin- H: \aar\lnterwoven\NRPortbl\DCC\AAR\9637143_1.DOC-29/02/2016 -6 istering to a subject in need thereof a CDH3, EPHA4, ECT2, HIG2, INHBB, KIF20A, KNTC2, TTK and/or URLC10 polypeptides of the invention. Administration of such peptide(s) results in the induction of anti-tumor immunity is induced by the administration of these polypeptides. Thus, the present invention provides methods for inducing anti-tumor immunity in a subject, such methods involving the step of administering to the subject the CDH3, EPHA4, ECT2, HIG2, INHBB, KIF20A, KNTC2, TTK and/or URLC10 polypeptides, as well as pharmaceutical compositions for treating or preventing a disease associated with the over-expression of CDH3, EPHA4, ECT2, HIG2, INHBB, KIF20A, KNTC2, TTK and/or URLC10, e.g. cancer, that include the CDH3, EPHA4, ECT2, HIG2, INHBB, KIF20A, KNTC2, TTK and URLC10 polypeptides. Examples of such cancers include, but are not limited to, bladder cancer, breast cancer, cervical cancer, cholangiocellular carcinoma, CML, colorectal cancer, endometriosis, esophageal cancer, gastric cancer, diffused type gastric cancer, liver cancer, NSCLC, lymphoma, osteosarcoma, ovarian cancer, pancreatic cancer, prostate cancer, renal carcinoma, SCLC, soft tissue tumor and testicular tumor.

Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this invention belongs. [00171 The present invention is based in part on the discovery of applicable targets of im munotherapy. Identification of new TAAs, particularly those that induce potent and specific anti-tumor inanne responses, warrants further development of the clinical -ap plication of the peptide vaccination strategy in various types of cancer (Boon T et al., (1996) J Exp Med 183: 725-9.; van der Bruggen P et al., (1991) Science 254: 1643-7.; Brichard V et al., (1993) J Exp Med 178:489-95.;, Kawakami Y et al., (1994) J Exp Med 180: 347-52.; Shichijo S et al., (1998) 1 Exp Med 187:277-88.; Chen YT et al., (1997) Proc.Natl.Acd.

Because TAAs have often no immunogenicity, discovery of fitting targets is extremely important issue. [0018] As noted above, CDH3 (GenBank Accession No. NM_001793; SEQ ID Nos.1, 2), EPHA4 (GenBank Accession No. L36645; SEQ ID Nos.3, 4), ECT2 (GenBank Accession No. AY376439; SEQ ID Nos.5, 6), HIG2 (GenBank Accession No. NM_013332; SEQ ID Nos.7, 8) INHBB (GenBank Accession No. NM_002193; SEQ ID Nos.9, 10), KIF20A (GenBank Accession No. NM_005733; SEQ ID Nos.11, 12), KNTC2 (GenBank Accession No. AF017790; SEQ ID Nos.13, 14), TTK (GenBank Accession No. NM_003318; SEQ ID Nos.15, 16) and URLC10 (GenBank Accession No. NM_017527; SEQ ID Nos.17, 18) were previously identified as over-expressed in various cancers using cDNA microarray technologies. [0019) In the present invention, peptides derived from CDH3, EPHA4, ECT2, HIG2, INHBB, KIF20A, KNTC2, TTK or URLC1O are shown to be TAA epitopes restricted by HLA-A24 and HLA-A2, an HLA allele commonly found in the Japanese and Caucasian populations. Specifically, using their binding affinities to HLA-A24 or HLA-A2, candidates of HLA-A24 or HLA-A2 binding peptides derived from CDH3, EPHA4, ECT2, HIG2, INHIB, KIF20A, KNTC2, TTK or URLC10 were identified. After the in vitro stimulation of T-cells by dendritic cells (DCs) loaded with these 20 WO 2008/102557 PCT/JP2008/000290 peptides, CTLs were successfully established using the following peptides.

Since these antigens are over-expressed in most cancers and are associated with tumor cell proliferation, they find utility as immunotherapeutic targets against cancers. Exemplary cancers include, but are not limited to, bladder cancer, breast cancer, cervical cancer, cholangiocellular carcinoma, CML, colorectal cancer, endometriosis, esophageal cancer, gastric cancer, diffused type gastric cancer, liver cancer, NSCLC, lymphoma, osteosarcoma, ovarian cancer, pancreatic cancer, prostate cancer, renal carcinoma, SCLC, soft tissue tumor and testicular tumor. [0021 ]Accordingly, the present invention further provides methods of treating or preventing a disease associated with the over-expression of CDH3, EPHA4, ECT2, HIG2, INHBB, KIF20A, KNTC2, TTK and/or URLC 10, e.g. cancers in a subj ect, such methods including the steps of administering to the subject an immunogenic peptide of less than about 40 amino acids, often less than about 20 amino acids, usually less than about 15 amino acids and having the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NOs: 19, 22, 30, 34, 344, 358, 41, 44, 46, 48, 78, 376, 379,80,100,101,110,111,387,112,394,114,116,117,121,395,133,135, 137,426, 174, 178, 186, 194, 196,202,210,213,214,217,223,227,228,233,254,271,272or288. [0022]Altematively, the immunogenic peptide may have an amino acid sequence as set forth in SEQ ID NOs: 19, 22,30,34, 344,358, 41, 44, 46,48, 78, 376, 379, 80, 100, 101, 110, 111, 387,112,394,114,116,117,121,395,133,135,137,426,174,178,186,194,196,202,210, 213, 214, 217, 223, 227, 228, 233, 254, 271, 272 or 288 in which 1, 2, or several (e.g., up to 5) amino acids are substituted, deleted or added, provided the resulting variant peptide retains the immunogenic activity (i.e., the ability to induce CTLs specific to cells expressing CDH3, EPHA4, ECT2, HIG2, INHBB, KIF20A, KNTC2, TTK and/or URLC 10, e.g. cancers). [0023]The number of residues to be substituted, deleted, or added is generally 5 amino acids or less, preferably 4 amino acids or less, more preferably 3 amino acids or less, H: \aar\Interwoven\RPortbl\DCC\AAR\9637143_1.DOC-29/02/2016 - 22 even more preferably one or two amino acids. The cancers contemplated include, but are not limited to, bladder cancer, breast cancer, cervical cancer, cholangiocellular carcinoma, CML, colorectal cancer, endometriosis, esophageal cancer, gastric cancer, diffused type gastric cancer, liver cancer, NSCLC, lymphoma, osteosarcoma, ovarian cancer, pancreatic cancer, prostate cancer, renal carcinoma, SCLC, soft tissue tumor and testicular tumor. Furthermore the present invention provides methods for preventing post-surgery recurrence of these diseases mentioned above. [0024] Variant peptides (i.e., peptides having an amino acid sequence modified by substituting, deleting, or adding one, two or several amino acid residues to an original amino acid sequence) are known to retain the original biological activity (Mark DF et al., (1984) Proc Natl Acad Sci USA 81: 5662-6.; Zoller MJ and Smith M, (1982) Nucleic Acids Res 10:6487 500.; Dalbadie-McFarland G et al., (1982) Proc Natl Acad Sci USA 79: 6409-13.). In the context of the present invention, it is preferable that the amino acid modification results in conservation of the properties of the original amino acid side-chain (a process known as conservative amino acid substitution). Examples of properties of amino acid side chains include hydrophobic amino acids (A, I, L, M, F, P, W, Y, V), hydrophilic amino acids (R, D, N, C, E, Q, G, H, K, S, T), and side chains having the following functional groups or characteristics in common: an aliphatic side-chain (G, A, V, L, I, P); a hydroxyl group containing side-chain (S, T, Y); a sulfur atom containing side-chain (C, M); a carboxylic acid and amide containing side-chain (D, N, E, Q); a base containing side-chain (R, K, H); and an aromatic containing side-chain (H, F, Y, W). Note, the parenthetic letters indicate the one letter codes of amino acids. [0025]In preferred embodiments, the immunogenic peptide is a nonapeptide (9-mer) or a decapeptide (10-mer). The present invention further provides a method of inducing anti-tumor immunity for a disease associated with the over-expression of CDH3, EPHA4, ECT2, HIG2, INHBB, KIF20A, KNTC2, TTK and/or URLC 10, e.g. cancers, in a subject, such a method including the steps of administering an immunogenic peptide of the present invention, namely one having the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NOs: 19, 22, 30, 34, 344, 358, 41, 44, 46, 48, 78, 376,379,80,100,101,110,111,387,112,394,114,116,117,121,395,133, 135, 137,426, 174, 178, 186, 194, 196,202,210,213,214,217,223,227,228,233,254,271,272or288,or a variant thereof (i.e., including 1, 2, or several (e.g., up to 5) amino acid substitutions, deletions, or additions) to the subject in need thereof The cancers contemplated include, but are not limited to, bladder cancer, breast cancer, cervical cancer, cholangiocellular carcinoma, CML, colorectal cancer, endometriosis, esophageal cancer, gastric cancer, diffused type gastric cancer, liver cancer, NSCLC, lymphoma, osteosarcoma, ovarian cancer, H: \aar\Interwoven\RPortbl\DCC\AAR\9637143_1.DOC-29/02/2016 - 23 pancreatic cancer, prostate cancer, renal carcinoma, SCLC, soft tissue tumor and testicular tumor. [0026] In the context of the present invention, the subject is preferably a mammal. Exemplary mammals include, but are not limited to, e.g., a human, non-human primate, mouse, rat, dog, cat, horse, or cow. In the present invention, the peptide can be administered to a subj ect via an in vivo or ex vivo protocol. Furthermore, the present invention also provides use of nonapeptide or decapeptide selected from peptides having the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NOs: 19, 22, 30, 34, 344, 358, 41, 44, 46, 48, 78, 376, 379, 80, 100, 101, 110, 111,387, 112, 394, 114, 116, 117, 121, 395, 133, 135, 137,426, 174, 178, 186, 194, 196,202,210,213,214,217,223,227,228,233, 254, 271, 272 or 288 (and variants thereof) for manufacturing an immunogenic composition for treating or preventing a disease associated with the over-expression of CDH3, EPHA4, ECT2, HIG2, INHBB, KIF20A, KNTC2, TTK and/or URLC10, e.g. cancers. The cancers contemplated include, but are not limited to, bladder cancer, breast cancer, cervical cancer, cholangiocellular carcinoma, CML, colorectal cancer, endometriosis, esophageal cancer, gastric cancer, diffused type gastric cancer, liver cancer, NSCLC, lymphoma, osteosarcoma, ovarian cancer, pancreatic cancer, prostate cancer, renal carcinoma, SCLC, soft tissue tumor and testicular tumor.

[0029] Regarding HLA antigens, the data presented here demonstrate that the uses of A-24 type or A-2 type antigens (which are said to be highly expressed among the Japanese) are favorable for obtaining effective results. The uses of subtypes such as A-2402 and A-0201 are even more preferable. Typically, in the clinic, the type of HLA antigen of the patient requiring treatment is investigated in advance, which, in turn, enables the 25 WO 2008/102557 PCT/JP2008/000290 selection of appropriate peptides having high levels of binding affmity to the patient antigen, or having cytotoxic T cell (CTL) inducibility by antigen presentation. Fur thermore, in order to obtain peptides having high binding affinity and CL indu cibility, substitution, deletion, or addition of 1, 2, or several (e.g,, up to 5) amino acids may be performed based on the amino acid sequence of the naturally occurring CDH3, EPHA4, ECT2, H[G2, INHB, KIF20A, KNTC2, TTK and URLCIO partial peptide. Herein, the term "several" means refers to 5 or less, more preferably 3 or less. Fur thermore, in addition to peptides that are naturally displayed, since the regularity of the sequences of peptides displayed by binding to HLA antigens is already known (Kubo RT, et al., (1994) J Immunol., 152, 3913-24.; Rammensee HG, et al., (1995) Immuno genetics. 41:178-228.; Kondo A, et al., (1995)J. 1Immunol. 155:4307-12.), modi fications based on such regularity can be performed on the immunogenic peptides of the invention. For example, peptides possessing high HLA-24 binding affinity in which the second amino acid from the N terminus substituted with phenylalanine, tyrosine, methionine, or tryptophan may be favorably used. Likewise, peptides whose C-terminal amino acid is substituted with phenylalanine, leucine, isoleucine, tryptophan, or methionine may also be used favorably. On the other hand, peptides possessing high HLA-A2 binding affinity in which the second amino acid from the N terminus substituted with leucine or methionine, and peptides whose C-terminal amino acid is substituted with valine or leucine may be used favorably. The substitution is performed not only at the terminus amino acids but also at the position of potential TCR recognition of peptides. Several studies have demonstrated that amino acid sub stitutions in a peptide can be equal to or better than the original, for example CAP1, p53 ca64-72), Her-2/neu 6 , r gpo100 M.217) (Zaremba et al. Cancer Res. 57, 4570-4577, 1997, T. K. Hoffmann et al. Jimmunol. (2002) Feb 1;168(3):1338-47., S. 0. Dionne et al. Cancer Immunol limmunother. (2003) 52: 199-206 and S. 0. Dionne et al. Cancer Immunology, Immunotherapy (2004) 53, 307-314). Furthermore, I to 2 amino acids may be added to the N terminus and/or C terminus of the peptide. [0030] However, when the peptide sequence is identical to a portion of the amino acid sequence of an endogenous or exogenous protein having a different function, side effects such as autoimmune disorders or allergic symptoms against specific substances may be induced. Therefore, it is preferable to avoid the situation wherein the im munogenic sequence matches the amino acid sequence of a known protein. This situation may be avoided by performing a homology search using available databases. If homology searches confirn that peptides in which 1, 2 or several different amino acids do not exist in nature, then the danger that modifications of the above-mentioned amino acid sequence that, for example, increase the binding affinity with HLA antigens, and/or increase the CTL inducibility can be avoided.

26 WO 2008/102557 PCTJP2008/000290 [0031] Although peptides having high binding affinity to the HLA antigens as described above are expected to be highly effective as cancer vaccines, the candidate peptides, which are selected according to the presence of high binding affinity as an indicator, must be examined for the actual presence of CTL inducibility. CTL inducibility may be routinely confirmed by inducing antigen-presenting cells carrying human MHC antigens (for example, B-lymphocytes, macrophages, and dendritic cells), or more spe cifically dendritic cells derived from human peripheral blood monpnuclear leukocytes, and, after stimulation with the peptide of interest, mixing with CD8-positive cells atd measuring the cytotoxic activity against the target cells.. As the reaction system, transgenic animals produced to express a human HLA antigen (for example, those described in BenMohamed L, et al., (2000) Hum. Immunol.; 61(8):764-79 Related Articles, Books, Linkout.) may be used. For example, the target cells can be radio labeled with 51 Cr and such, and cytotoxic activity can be calculated from radioactivity released from the target cells. Alternatively, it can be examined by measuring IFN gamma produced and released by CTL in the presence of antigen-presenting cells that carry immobilized peptides, and visualizing the inhibition zone on the media using anti-TN-gamma monoclonal antibodies. [0032] As a result of examining the CTL inducibility of peptides as described above, it was discovered that those peptides having high binding affity to an HLA antigen did not necessarily have high inducibility. However, nonap eptides or decapeptides selected from the group of peptides having the amino acid sequences indicated by the following peptides showed particularly high CTL inducibility.

H: \aar\Interwoven\RPortbl\DCC\AAR\9637143_1.DOC-29/02/2016 - 28 [0034] It is preferable that the amino acid sequences composed of 9 or 10 amino acids indicated in SEQ ID NOs: 19, 22, 30, 34, 344, 358, 41, 44,46, 48, 78, 376, 379, 80, 100, 101, 110, 111, 387, 112, 394, 114, 116, 117, 121,395, 133, 135, 137,426, 174, 178, 186, 194, 196,202,210,213,214,217, 223, 227, 228, 233, 254, 271, 272 or 288 or a variant thereof do not match an amino acid sequence associated with another endogenous protein. [0035] In particular, amino acid substitution to leucine or methionine at the second amino acid from the N terminus, amino acid substitution to valine or leucine at the C -terminal amino acid, and amino acid addition of I to 2 amino acids at the N terminus and/or C terminus are examples of preferred variants. [0036] One of skill in the art will recognize that in addition to amino acid substitutions and additions, immunologically active fragments of the peptides may also be used in the methods of the invention. Methods for determining active fragments are well known in the art. CTL clones obtained by stimulation by these modified peptides can recognize the original peptides and cause damage for cells expressing the original peptides. [0037] Peptides of the present invention can be prepared using well known techniques. For example, the peptides can be prepared synthetically, using either recombinant DNA technology or chemical synthesis. Peptides of the present invention may be synthesized individually or as longer polypeptides composed of two or more peptides. The peptides of the present invention are preferably isolated, i.e., substantially free of other naturally occurring host cell proteins and fragments thereof. [0038] The peptides of the present invention may contain modifications, such as glycosylation, side chain oxidation, or phosphorylation; so long as the modifications do not destroy the biological activity of the peptides as described herein, namely the ability to binding to an HLA antigen and induce CTL. Other modifications include incorporation of D -amino acids or other amino acid mimetics that can be used, for example, to increase the serum half life of the peptides. [0039] Moreover, this invention may contain a method of screening for a peptide which 1, 2, or several amino acids are substituted, wherein said peptide comprises an amino acid sequence selected from the group consisting of SEQ ID NO: 19, 22, 30, 34, 344, 358, 41, 44, 46, 48, 78, 80, 100, 101, 110, 111, 387, 112, 394, 395, 133, 135, 137, 426, 174, 178, 186, 194, 196, 202, 210, 213, 214, 217 or 223, said method comprising the steps of: (a) confirming no significant sequence homology to the entire sequence of 1, 2 or several amino acids substitute; (b) measuring the CTL inducibility of the candidate substitute peptide; and (c) selecting the peptide which CTL inducibility is same to or higher than the original peptide.

H: \aar\Interwoven\RPortbl\DCC\AAR\9637143_1.DOC-29/02/2016 - 29 [0040] For example, in preferred embodiments, the present invention provides a method of identifying for a peptide having an ability to induce CTL against cells expressing at leaset one tumor-associated antigen, wherein the tumor-associated antigen is antigen selected from the group consisting of CDH3, EPHA4, ECT2, HIG2, INHBB, KIF20A, KNTC2, TTK and URLC 10, said method comprising the steps of: (i) providing or generating at least one candidate sequence which consists of an amino acid sequence modified by substituting, deleting, or adding one, two or several amino acid residues to an original amino acid sequence, wherein the original amino acid sequence is selected from the group consisting of SEQ ID NO: 19, 22, 30, 34, 344, 358, 41, 44, 46, 48, 78, 80, 100, 101, 110, 111,387, 112,394,395, 133, 135, 137,426, 174, 178, 186, 194, 196,202,210,213,214,217or 223; (ii) selecting the candidate sequence that does not have substantial significant homology with the peptides derived from any known human gene products other than said tumor-associated antigens; (iii) contacting a peptide consisting of the candidate sequence selected in step (ii) with antigen presenting cells; (iv) contacting the antigen presenting cells of step (iii) with T-cells to evaluate the ability of the peptide to stimulate the T-cells; and (v) identifying the peptide of which CTL inducibility is same to or higher than a peptide consisting of the original amino acid sequence. [0041] Preferably, the amino acid is substituted for a different amino acid in which the properties of the amino acid side-chain are conserved (a process known as conservative amino acid substitution). Examples of properties of amino acid side chains are hydrophobic amino acids (A, I, L, M, F, P, W, Y, V), hydrophilic amino acids (R, D, N, C, E, Q, G, H, K, S, T), and side chains having the following functional groups or characteristics in common: an aliphatic side-chain (G, A, V, L, I, P); a hydroxyl group containing side-chain (S, T, Y); a sulfur atom containing side chain (C, M); a carboxylic acid and amide containing side-chain (D, N, E, Q); a base containing side-chain (R, K, H); and an aromatic containing side-chain (H, F, Y, W). Note, the parenthetic letters indicate the one-letter codes of amino acids. In the present invention, substantial significant homology is, for example, more than 90%, preferably 95%, more preferably 99% or 100% identity with a known human gene product to be compared. [0042] The peptides of this invention can be prepared as a combination, which includes two or more of peptides of the invention, for use as a vaccine for a disease associated with the over expression of CDH3, EPHA4, ECT2, HIG2, INHBB, KIF20A, KNTC2, TTK and/or URLC 10, e.g. cancers, such a vaccine inducing CTL in vivo. The cancers contemplated include, but are not limited to, bladder cancer, breast cancer, cervical cancer, H: \aar\Interwoven\RPortbl\DCC\AAR\9637143_1.DOC-29/02/2016 - 30 cholangiocellular carcinoma, CML, colorectal cancer, endometriosis, esophageal cancer, gastric cancer, diffused type gastric cancer, liver cancer, NSCLC, lymphoma, osteosarcoma, ovarian cancer, pancreatic cancer, prostate cancer, renal carcinoma, SCLC, soft tissue tumor and testicular tumor. The peptides may be in a cocktail or may be conjugated to each other using standard techniques. For example, the peptides can be expressed as a single polypeptide sequence. The peptides in the combination may be the same or different. [0043] By administering the peptides of this invention, the peptides are presented at a high density on the HLA antigens of antigen-presenting cells, which, in turn, induces CTLs that specifically react toward the complex formed between the displayed peptide and the HLA antigen. Alternatively, antigen-presenting cells having immobilized the peptides of this invention on their cell surface, obtained by removing dendritic cells from the subjects, may be stimulated by the peptides of this invention. Re-administration of these cells to the respective subjects induces CTL, and, as a result, aggressiveness towards the target cells can be increased. [0044] More specifically, the present invention provides drugs for treating and/or preventing proliferation, metastasis, and such of a disease associated with the over-expression of CDH3, EPHA4, ECT2, HIG2, INHBB, KIF20A, KNTC2, TTK and/or URLC 10, e.g. cancers, which include one or more of peptides of the present invention, or a polynucleotide encoding the peptides. The peptides or polynucleotides of the present invention find particular utility in the treatment of a disease associating CDH3, EPHA4, ECT2, HIG2, INHBB, KIF20A, KNTC2, TTK and/or URLC10, e.g. cancers. The cancers contemplated include, but are not limited to, bladder cancer, breast cancer, cervical cancer, cholangiocellular carcinoma, CML, colorectal cancer, endometriosis, esophageal cancer, gastric cancer, diffused type gastric cancer, liver cancer, NSCLC, lymphoma, osteosarcoma, ovarian cancer, pancreatic cancer, prostate cancer, renal carcinoma, SCLC, soft tissue tumor and testicular tumor. [0045] The peptides of this invention can be administered to a subject directly, as a pharmaceutical composition that has been formulated by conventional formulation methods. In such cases, in addition to the peptides of this invention, carriers, excipients, and such that are ordinarily used for drugs can be included as appropriate, without particular limitations. The immunogenic compositions of this invention may be used for treatment and prevention of a disease associated with the over-expression of CDH3, EPHA4, ECT2, HIG2, INHBB, KIF20A, KNTC2, TTK and/or URLC10, e.g. cancers. The cancers contemplated include, but are not limited to, bladder cancer, breast cancer, cervical cancer, cholangiocellular carcinoma, CML, colorectal cancer, endometriosis, esophageal cancer, gastric cancer, diffused type gastric cancer, liver cancer, NSCLC, lymphoma, osteosarcoma, ovarian cancer, pancreatic cancer, prostate cancer, H: \aar\Interwoven\RPortbl\DCC\AAR\9637143_1.DOC-29/02/2016 -31 renal carcinoma, SCLC, soft tissue tumor and testicular tumor. [0046] The immunogenic compositions for treatment and/or prevention of a disease associated with the over-expression of CDH3, EPHA4, ECT2, HIG2, INHBB, KIF20A, KNTC2, TTK and/or URLC 10, e.g. cancers, which include as the active ingredient one or more peptides of the present invention, can further include an adjuvant so that cellular immunity will be established effectively. Alternatively, they may be administered with other active ingredients, such as anti-cancer agents. [0047] The cancers contemplated include, but are not limited to, bladder cancer, breast cancer, cervical cancer, cholangiocellular carcinoma, CML, colorectal cancer, endometriosis, esophageal cancer, gastric cancer, diffused type gastric cancer, liver cancer, NSCLC, lymphoma, osteosarcoma, ovarian cancer, pancreatic cancer, prostate cancer, renal carcinoma, SCLC, soft tissue tumor and testicular tumor. Suitable formulations include granules. Suitable adjuvants are described in the literature (Johnson AG. (1994) Clin. Microbiol. Rev., 7:277 89.). [0048] Exemplary adjuvants include, but are not limited to, aluminium phosphate, aluminium hydroxide, and alum. Furthermore, liposome formulations, granular formulations in which the drug is bound to few-min m diameter beads, and formulations in which a lipid is bound to the peptide may be conveniently used. The method of administration may be oral, intradermal, subcutaneous, intravenous injection, or such, and may include systemic administration or local administration to the vicinity of the targeted tumor. [0049] The dose of the peptide(s) of this invention can be adjusted appropriately according to the disease to be treated, age of the patient, weight, method of administration, and such. Though the dosage is ordinarily 0.00 1 mg to 1000 mg, preferably 0.01 mg to 100 mg, more preferably 0.1 mg to 10 mg, preferably administered once in a few days to few months, one skilled in the art can readily select the appropriate dose and method of administration, as, the selection and optimization of these parameters is well within routine skill. [0050] The present invention further provides intracellular vesicles called exosomes, which present complexes formed between the peptides of this invention and HLA antigens on their surface. Exosomes can be prepared, for example, by using the methods described in detail in Published Japanese Translation of International Publication Nos. Hei 11-510507 and 2000 512161, and are preferably prepared using antigen-presenting cells obtained from subjects who are targets of treatment and/or prevention. The exosomes of this invention can be inoculated as cancer vaccines, similarly to the peptides of this invention. [0051] The type of HLA antigens used must match that of the subject requiring treatment and/or prevention. For example, in the Japanese population, HLA-A24 or HLA-A2, 32 WO 2008/102557 PCT/JP2008/000290 particularly HLA-A2402 or HLA-A0201, is often appropriate. [0052] In some embodiments, the vaccine compositions of the present invention include a component which primes cytotoxic T lymphocytes. Lipids have been identified as agents capable of printing CTL in vivo against viral antigens. For example, palmitic acid residues can be attached to the epsilon-and alpha-amino groups of a lysine residue and then linked to an immunogenic peptide of the invention. The lipidated peptide can then be aminitered either directly, in a micelle or particle, incorporated into a liposome, or emulsified in an adjuvant. As another example of a lipid priming of CTL responses, E. coli lipoproteins, such as tripalmitoyl-S-glycerylcysteinlyseryl- series (P3CSS), can be used to prime CTL when covalently attached to an appropriate peptide (see, e.g., Deres K, et al., (1989) Nature 342:561-4.). [0053] The immunogenic compositions of the present invention may also include nucleic acids encoding one or more of the immunogenic peptides disclosed hem. See, e.g., Wolff JA et al., (1990) Science 247:1465-8; U.S. Patent Nos. 5,580,859; 5,589,466; 5,804,566; 5,739,118; 5,736,524; 5,679,647; and WO 98/04720. Examples of DNA based delivery technologies include "naked DNA", facilitated (bupivicaine, polymers, peptide-mediated) delivery, cationic lipid complexes, aid particle-mediated ("gene gun") or pressure-mediated delivery (see, e.g., U.S. Patent No. 5,922,687). [0054J The immunogenic peptides of the invention can also be expressed by viral or bacterial vectors. Examples of suitable expression vectors include attenuated viral hosts, such as vaccinia or fowipox. This approach involves the use of vaccinia virus, e.g., as a vector to express nucleotide sequences that encode the peptide. Upon in troduction into a host, the recombinant vaccinia virus expresses the immunogenic peptide, and thereby elicits an immune response. Vaccinia vectors and methods useful in immunization protocols are described in, e.g., U.S. Patent No. 4,722,848. Another suitable vector is BCG (Bacille Calmette Guerin). BCG vectors are described in Stover CK, et al., (1991) Nature 351:456-60. A wide variety of other vectors useful for therapeutic administration or immunization e.g., adeno and adeno-associated virus vectors, retroviral vectors, Salmonella typhi vectors, detoxified anthrax toxin vectors, and the like, are known in the art. See, e.g., Shata MT, et al., (2000) Mol. Med. Today 6:66-7 1; Shedlock DJ and Weiner DB., et al., (2000) J. Leukoc. Biol. 68:793-806; and Hipp JD, et al., (2000) In Vivo 14:571-85. [0055] The present invention also provides methods of inducing antigen-presenting cells using one or more peptides of this invention. The antigen-presenting cells can be induced by inducing dendritic cells from the peripheral blood monocytes and then contacting (stimulating) them with one or more peptides of this invention in vitro, ex vivo or in vivo. When peptides of the present invention are administered to the subjects, antigen-presenting cells that have the peptides of this invention immobilized H: \aar\Interwoven\RPortbl\DCC\AAR\9637143_1.DOC-29/02/2016 - 33 to them are induced in the body of the subject. Alternatively, after immobilizing the peptides of this invention to the antigen-presenting cells, the cells can be administered to the subject as a vaccine. For example, the ex vivo administration may include the steps of: a: collecting antigen-presenting cells from a subject, and b: contacting the antigen-presenting cells of step a with a peptide of the present invention. [0056] Alternatively, according to the present invention, use of the peptides of this invention for manufacturing a pharmaceutical composition inducing antigen-presenting cells is provided. Further, the present invention also provides the peptide of the present invention for inducing antigen-presenting cells. The antigen-presenting cells obtained by step b can be administered to the subject as a vaccine. [0057] This invention also provides a method for inducing antigen-presenting cells having a high level of cytotoxic T cell inducibility, in which the method includes the step of transferring genes composed of polynucleotide(s) encoding one or more peptides of this invention to antigen-presenting cells in vitro. The introduced genes may be in the form of DNAs or RNAs. For the method of introduction, without particular limitations, various methods conventionally performed in this field, such as lipofection, electroporation, and calcium phosphate method may be suitably used. More specifically, transfection may be performed as described in Reeves ME, et al., (1996) Cancer Res., 56:5672-7.; Butterfield LH, et al., (1998) J. Immunol., 161:5607-13.; Boczkowski D, et al., (1996) J. Exp. Med., 184:465-72.; Published Japanese Translation of International Publication No. 2000-509281. By transferring the gene into antigen-presenting cells, the gene undergoes transcription, translation, and such in the cell, and then the obtained protein is processed by MHC Class I or Class II, and proceeds through a presentation pathway to present partial peptides. [0058] The present invention further provides methods for inducing CTL using one or more peptides of this invention. When the peptides of this invention are administered to a subject, CTL are induced in the body of the subject, and the strength of the immune system targeting the cells expressing CDH3, EPHA4, ECT2, HIG2, INHBB, KIF20A, KNTC2, TTK and/or URLC10, e.g. cancer cells in the tumor tissues is thereby enhanced. [0059] The cancers contemplated include, but are not limited to bladder cancer, breast cancer, cervical cancer, cholangiocellular carcinoma, CML, colorectal cancer, endometriosis, esophageal cancer, gastric cancer, diffused type gastric cancer, liver cancer, NSCLC, lymphoma, osteosarcoma, ovarian cancer, pancreatic cancer, prostate cancer, renal carcinoma, SCLC, soft tissue tumor and testicular tumor. Alternatively, the peptides of the present invention may be used in the context of an ex vivo therapeutic 34 WO 2008/102557 PCT/JP2008/000290 method, in which subject-derived antigen-presenting cells and CD8-positive cells or peripheral blood mononuclear leukocytes are contacted (stimulated) with one or more peptides of this invention in vitro, and, after inducing CTL, the cells are returned to the subject. For example, the method may include the steps of: a: collecting antigen-presenting cells from a subject, b: contacting the antigen-presenting cells of step a with a peptide of the present invention, c: mixing the antigen-presenting cells of step b with CD + T cells and co-culturig so as to induce cytotoxic T-cells:, and d: collecting CD- T cells from the co-culture of step c. [0060] Alternatively, according to the present invention, use of the peptides of tis invention for manufacturing a pharmaceutical composition inducing CTLs is provided. Further, the present invention also provides the peptide of the present invention for inducing CThs. The CDs T cells having cytotoxic activity obtained by step d can be ad ministered to the subject as a vaccine. [0061] The present invention further provides isolated cytotoxic T cells induced using the peptides of this invention. The cytotoxic T cells, induced by stimulation with an antigen-presenting cell presenting one or more peptides of this invention, are preferably derived from subjects who are the target of treatment and/or prevention, and can be administered alone or in combination with other drugs, including one or more peptides of this invention or exosomes having anti-tnmor activity. The obtained cytotoxic T cells act specifically against target cells presenting the peptides of this invention, or preferably the same peptide(s) used for induction. The target cells may be cells that express CDH3, EPHA4, ECT2, HIG2, INUBB, KIF20A, KNTC2, TTK and/ or URLC1O endogenously, or cells that are transfected with CDH3, EPHA4, ECT2, HIG2, INHBB, XF20A, KNTC2, TTK and/or URLC1O genes. Cells that present the peptides of this invention on the cell surface, due to stimulation with these peptides, can also become targets of attack. [0062] The present invention also provides antigen-prsenting cells presenting complexes formed between HLA antigens and one or more peptides of this invention. The antigen-presenting cells, obtained through contact with the peptides of this invention or the nucleotides encoding such peptides, are preferably derived from subjects who are the target of treatment and/or prevention, and can be administered as vaccines, alone or in combination with other drugs, including the peptides, exosornes, or cytotoxic T cells of the present invention. [0063] The present invention also provides a composition composed of nucleic acids encoding polypeptides that are capable of forming a subunit of a T cell receptor (TCR), and methods of using the same. The TCR subunits have the ability to form TCRs that 35 WO 20081102557 PCT/JP2008/000290 confer specificity to T cells for tumor cells presenting CDH3, EPHA4, ECT2, BIG2, INRBB, KIF20A, KNTC2, TTK or URLC1O. By using the known method in the art, the nucleic acids of alpha- and beta-chain as the TCR subunits of the CTL induced with one or more peptides of this invention may be identified (WO2007/032255 and Morgan at al., J Immunol, 171, 3288 (2003)). The derivative TCRs preferably bind target cells displaying the CDH3, EPHA4, ECT2, HIG2, INHBB, KIF20A, KNTC2, TTK or URLC10 peptide with high avidity, and optionally mediate efficient killing of target cells presenting the CDH3, EPHA4, ECT2, HIG2, INHBB, KIF20A, KNTC2, TTK at URLC10 peptide in vivo and in vitro. [0064] The nucleic acids encoding the TCR subunits can be incorporated into suitable vectors e.g. retroviral vectors. These vectors are well known in the art. The nucleic acids or the vectors containing them usefully can be transferred into a T cell, which T cell is preferably from a patient. Advantageously, the invention provides an off the-shelf composition allowing rapid modification of a patient's own T cells (or those of another mammal) .o rapidly and easily produce modified T cells having excellent cancer cell killing properties. [00651 Also, the present invention provides CTLs which are prepared by transduction with the nucleic acids encoding the TCR subunits polypeptides binding with CDH3, EPHA4, ECT2, HG2, INHBB, KIF20A, KNTC2, TTK or URLC10 peptide e.g. SEQ lID NOs: 19, 22, 30,34, 344,358, 41, 44, 46,48,78, 376, 379, 80, 100, 101, 110, 111, 387, 112, 394, 114, 116, 117, 121, 395, 133, 135, 137, 426, 174, 178, 186, 194, 196, 202, 210, 213, 214, 217, 223, 227, 228, 233, 254, 271, 272 or 288 in the context of HLA-A24 or HLA-A2. The transduced CTLs are capable of homing to cancer cells in vivo, and expanded by well known culturing method in vitro (e.g., Kawakami et al., J Immunol., 142, 3452-3461 (1989)). The T cells of the invention can be used to form an immunogenic composition useful in treating or preventing cancer in a patient in need of therapy or protection (WO2006/03 1221). [0066] In the context of the present invention, the term "vaccine' (also referred to as an im munogenic composition) refers to a substance that induces anti-tumor immunity or suppresses cancers upon inoculation into animals. According to the present invention, polypeptides having the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 19, 22, 30, 34, 344, 358, 41,44,46,48,78,80,100, 101, 110,111,387,112,394,395,133,135,137,426, 174, 178, 186, 194, 196, 202, 210, 213, 214, 217 or 223 were suggested to be HLA-A24 re stricted epitope peptides and those of SEQ ID NO: 376, 379, 114, 116, 117, 121, 227, 228, 233, 254, 271, 272 or 288 were suggested to be HLA-A2 restricted epitope peptides that may induce potent and specific immune response against cells expressing CDH3, EPHA4, ECT2, HIG2, INHBB, KIF20A, KNTC2, TTK and/or URLC10, e.g. cancer cells expressing CDH3, EPHA4, ECT2, HIG2, INHBB, KIF20A, KNTC2, TTK H: \aar\Interwoven\RPortbl\DCC\AAR\9637143_1.DOC-29/02/2016 - 36 and/or URLC10. The cancers contemplated include, but are not limited to bladder cancer, breast cancer, cervical cancer, cholangiocellular carcinoma, CML, colorectal cancer, endometriosis, esophageal cancer, gastric cancer, diffused type gastric cancer, liver cancer, NSCLC, lymphoma, osteosarcoma, ovarian cancer, pancreatic cancer, prostate cancer, renal carcinoma, SCLC, soft tissue tumor and testicular tumor. [0067] Thus, the present invention also encompasses a method of inducing anti-tumor immunity using polypeptides having the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 19, 22, 30, 34, 344, 358, 41, 44, 46, 48, 78, 376, 379, 80, 100, 101, 110, 111,387, 112,394, 114, 116, 117, 121, 395, 133, 135, 137, 426, 174, 178, 186, 194, 196, 202, 210, 213, 214, 217, 223, 227, 228, 233, 254, 271, 272 or 288 or a variant thereof (i.e., including 1, 2, or several (e.g., up to 5) amino acid substitutions, deletions, or additions). In general, anti-tumor immunity includes immune responses such as follows: - an induction of cytotoxic lymphocytes against tumors containing cells expressing CDH3, EPHA4, ECT2, HIG2, INHBB, KIF20A, KNTC2, TTK and/or URLC 10, - an induction of antibodies that recognize tumors containing cells expressing CDH3, EPHA4, ECT2, HIG2, INHBB, KIF20A, KNTC2, TTK and/or URLC 10, and - an induction of anti-tumor cytokine production. [0068] Therefore, when a certain peptide induces any one of these immune responses upon inoculation into an animal, the peptide is decided to have anti-tumor immunity inducing effect. The induction of the anti-tumor immunity by a peptide can be detected by observing in vivo or in vitro the response of the immune system in the host against the peptide. [0069] For example, a method for detecting the induction of cytotoxic T lymphocytes is well known. A foreign substance that enters the living body is presented to T cells and B cells by the action of antigen presenting cells (APCs). T cells that respond to the antigen presented by APC in antigen specific manner differentiate into cytotoxic T cells (also referred to as cytotoxic T lymphocytes or CTLs) due to stimulation by the antigen, and then proliferate; this process is referred to herein as "activation" of T cells. Therefore, CTL induction by a certain peptide can be evaluated by presenting the peptide to a T cell by APC, and detecting the induction of CTL. Furthermore, APCs have the effect of activating CD4+ T cells, CD8+ T cells, macrophages, eosinophils and NK cells. Since CD4+ T cells are also important in anti-tumor immunity, the anti-tumor immunity inducing action of the peptide can be evaluated using the activation effect of these cells as indicators. [0070] A method for evaluating the inducing action of CTL using dendritic cells (DCs) as APC is well known in the art. DC is a representative APC having the strongest CTL inducing action among APCs. In this method, the test polypeptide is initially contacted with DC and then this DC is contacted with T cells. Detection of T cells having H: \aar\Interwoven\RPortbl\DCC\AAR\9637143_1.DOC-29/02/2016 - 37 cytotoxic effects against the cells of interest after the contact with DC shows that the test polypeptide has an activity of inducing the cytotoxic T cells. Activity of CTL against tumors can be detected, for example, using the lysis of "Cr-labeled tumor cells as the indicator. Alternatively, it is well known to evaluate the degree of tumor cell damage using 3H-thymidine uptake activity or LDH (lactose dehydrogenase)-release as the indicator. Furthermore, it can be also examined by measuring IFN gamma produced and released by CTL in the presence of antigen-presenting cells that carry immobilized peptides by visualizing using anti-IFN-gamma antibodies, such as an ELISPOT assay. [0071] Apart from DC, peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) may also be used as the APC. The induction of CTL is reported to be enhanced by culturing PBMC in the presence of GM-CSF and IL-4. Similarly, CTL has been shown to be induced by culturing PBMC in the presence of keyhole limpet hemocyanin (KLH) and IL-7. [0072] The test polypeptides confirmed to possess CTL inducing activity by these methods are polypeptides having DC activation effect and subsequent CTL inducing activity. Therefore, polypeptides that induce CTL against cells expressed CDH3, EPHA4, ECT2, HIG2, INHBB, KIF20A, KNTC2, TTK and/or URLC1O are useful as vaccines against diseases associating CDH3, EPHA4, ECT2, HIG2, INHBB, KIF20A, KNTC2, TTK and/or URLC 10, e.g. cancers. Furthermore, APC that have acquired the ability to induce CTL against a disease associated with the over-expression of CDH3, EPHA4, ECT2, HIG2, INHBB, KIF20A, KNTC2, TTK and/or URLC1O, e.g. cancers, by contacting with the polypeptides are useful as vaccines against the disease. Furthermore, CTL that have acquired cytotoxicity due to presentation of the polypeptide antigens by APC can be also used as vaccines against a disease associating CDH3, EPHA4, ECT2, HIG2, INHBB, KIF20A, KNTC2, TTK and/or URLC10, e.g. cancers. Such therapeutic methods for a disease associating CDH3, EPHA4, ECT2, HIG2, INHBB, KIF20A, KNTC2, TTK and/or URLC10, e.g. cancers, using anti-tumor immunity due to APC and CTL, are referred to as cellular immunotherapy. The cancers contemplated include, but are not limited to, bladder cancer, breast cancer, cervical cancer, cholangiocellular carcinoma, CML, colorectal cancer, endometriosis, esophageal cancer, gastric cancer, diffused type gastric cancer, liver cancer, NSCLC, lymphoma, osteosarcoma, ovarian cancer, pancreatic cancer, prostate cancer, renal carcinoma, SCLC, soft tissue tumor and testicular tumor. [0073] Generally, when using a polypeptide for cellular immunotherapy, efficiency of the CTL induction can be increased by combining a plurality of polypeptides having different structures and contacting them with DC. Therefore, when stimulating DC with protein fragments, it is advantageous to use a mixture of multiple types of fragments.

38 WO 2008/102557 PCT/JPOO/000290 [0074] The induction of anti-tumor immunity by a polypeptide can be further confirmed by observing the induction of antibody production against tumors. For example, when an tibodies against a polypeptide are induced in a laboratory animal immunized with the polypeptide, and when growth, proliferation and/or metastasis of tumor cells is suppressed by those antibodies, the polypeptide is determined to induce anti-tumor immunity. [0075] Anti-tumor immunity can be induced by administering a vaccine of this invention, and the induction of anti-tumor immunity enables treatment and prevention of a disease associated with the over-expression of CDH3, EPHA4, ECT2, HIG2, NHBB, KIF20A, KNTC2, TTK and/or URLC10, e.g. cancers. Therapy against or prevention of the onset of a disease associated with the over-6xpression of CDH3, EPHA4, ECT2, HIG2, INBB, KIF20A, KNTC2, TTK and/or URLCIO, ewg. cancers, may include in hibition of the growth of cells expressing CDH3, EPHA4, ECT2, HIG2, INBB, KIF20A, KNTC2, TTK and/or URLC10, e.g. cancer cells, involution of these cells and suppression of occurrence of these cells, e.g. cancer cells. Decrease in mortality of in dividuals having a disease associating CDH3, EPHA4, ECT2, HIG2, INHBB, KIF20A, KNTC2, TTK and/or URLC10, e.g. cancers, decrease of the disease markers in the blood, alleviation of detectable symptoms accompanying the disease and such are also included in the therapy or prevention of the disease, e.g. cancers. Such therapeutic and preventive effects are preferably statistically significant, for example, observed at a significance level of 5% or less, wherein the therapeutic or preventive effect of a vaccine against a disease associating CDH3, EPHA4, ECT2, HIG2, INKBB, KIF20A, KNTC2, TTK and/or URLCIO, e.g. cancers, is compared to a control without vaccine administration. For example, Student's t-test, the Mann-Whitney U-test or ANOVA may be used for determining statistical significance. [0076] In that the present invention provides a method for treating, or preventing a disease associated with the over-expression of CDH3, EPHA4, ECT2, IG2, INHBB, KIF20A, KNTC2, TTK and/or URLC1O, e.g. cancers, the therapeutic compounds or compositions may be administered prophylactically or therapeutically to subjects suffering from or at risk of (or susceptible to) developing the disease. Such subjects may be identified using standard clinical methods. In the context of the present invention, prophylactic administration occurs prior to the manifestation of overt clinical symptoms of disease, such that a disease or disorder is prevented or al ternatively delayed in its progression. In the context of the field of medicine, the term p r eventn" encompasses any activity which reduces the burden of mortality or morbidity from disease. Prevention can occur at primary, secondary and tertiary prevention levels. While primary prevention avoids the development of a disease, secondary and tertiary levels of prevention encompass activities aimed at preventing the progression H: \aar\Interwoven\RPortbl\DCC\AAR\9637143_1.DOC-29/02/2016 - 39 of a disease and the emergence of symptoms as well as reducing the negative impact of an already established disease by restoring function and reducing disease-related complications. [0077] In the context of cancer treatment, the term "efficacious" refers to a treatment that leads to a decrease in size, prevalence or metastatic potential of cancer in a subject. When a treatment is applied prophylactically, "efficacious" means that the treatment retards or prevents occurrence of cancer or alleviates a clinical symptom of cancer. The assessment of cancer can be made using standard clinical protocols. Furthermore, the efficaciousness of a treatment may be determined in association with any known method for diagnosing or treating cancer. For example, cancer can be diagnosed histopathologically or by identifying symptomatic anomalies. [0078] The above-mentioned peptide, having immunological activity, or a polynucleotide or vector encoding such a peptide, may be combined with an adjuvant. An adjuvant refers to a compound that enhances the immune response against the peptide when administered together (or successively) with the peptide having immunological activity. Examples of suitable adjuvants include cholera toxin, salmonella toxin, alum and such, but are not limited thereto. Furthermore, a vaccine of this invention may be combined appropriately with a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier. Examples of such carriers are sterilized water, physiological saline, phosphate buffer, culture fluid and such. Furthermore, the vaccine may contain as necessary, stabilizers, suspensions, preservatives, surfactants and such. The vaccine is administered systemically or locally. Vaccine administration may be performed by single administration or boosted by multiple administrations. [0079] When using APC or CTL as the vaccine of this invention, a disease associated with the over expression of CDH3, EPHA4, ECT2, HIG2, INHBB, KIF20A, KNTC2, TTK and/or URLC 10, e.g. cancers, can be treated or prevented, for example, by the ex vivo method. More specifically, PBMCs of the subject receiving treatment or prevention are collected, contacted ex vivo with a peptide of the present invention. Following the induction of APC or CTL, the cells may be administered to the subject. APC can be also induced by introducing a vector encoding the peptide into PBMCs ex vivo. APC or CTL induced in vitro can be cloned prior to administration. By cloning and growing cells having high activity of damaging target cells, cellular immunotherapy can be performed more effectively. Furthermore, APC and CTL isolated in this manner may be used for cellular immunotherapy not only against individuals from whom the cells are derived, but also against similar types of diseases in other individuals. [0080] Aspects of the present invention are described in the following examples, which are presented only to illustrate the present invention and to assist one of ordinary skill in making and using the same. The examples are not intended in any way to otherwise H: \aar\Interwoven\RPortbl\DCC\AAR\9637143_1.DOC-29/02/2016 - 40 limit the scope of the invention. [0081] Although methods and materials similar or equivalent to those described herein can be used in the practice or testing of the present invention, suitable methods and materials are described below. [0082] EXAMPLES Hereinafter, the present invention is exemplified, but not restricted, by the following Examples. However, materials, methods and such described herein only illustrate aspects of the invention and in no way are intended to limit the scope of the present invention. As such, materials, methods and such similar or equivalent to those described therein may be used in the practice or testing of the present invention. [0083] MATERIALS AND METHODS Cell lines A24-LCL cells (HLA-A24), human B-lymphoblastoid cell line, was established by transforming with Epstain-Barr virus. T2 cell, COS7, A498, Caki-2 and HEK 293 were purchased from ATCC. Caki-1 and MIAPaca-2 were purchased from JCRB. PK-45P, PK-59, TE-5 and TE-6 were purchased from TKG. 293 T was purchased from GenHunter. [0084] Candidate selection of peptide derived from CDH3, EPHA4, ECT2, HIG2, INHBB, KIF20A, KNTC2, TTK and URLC10 9-mer and 1 0-mer peptides derived from CDH3, EPHA4, ECT2, HIG2, INHBB, KIF20A, KNTC2, TTK or URLC 10 that bind to HLA-A*2402 or HLA-A*0201 molecule were predicted using the binding prediction software "BIMAS" (http://bimas.dcrt.nih.gov/cgi-bin/molbio/kenparkercomboform) (Parker KC, et al., (1994) J Immunol.;152(1):163-75.; Kuzushima K, et al., (2001) Blood.;98(6):1872-8 1.). These peptides were synthesized by Sigma (Sapporo, Japan) according to the standard solid phase synthesis method and purified by reversed phase HPLC. The purity (>90%) and the identity of the peptides were determined by analytical HPLC and mass spectrometry analysis, respectively. Peptides were dissolved in dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO) at 20 mg/ml and stored at -80 degrees C. [0085] In vitro CTL Induction Monocyte-derived dendritic cells (DCs) were used as antigen-presenting cells (APCs) to induce CTL responses against peptides presented on HLA. DCs were generated in vitro as described elsewhere (Nukaya I et al., (1999) Int. J. Cancer 80, 92-7., Tsai V et al., (1997) J. Immunol 158:1796-802.). Briefly, peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) isolated from a normal volunteer (HLA-A*2402 and/or HLA-A* 0201) by Ficoll-Paque (Pharmacia) solution were separated by adherence to a plastic tissue culture flask (Becton Dickinson) so as to enrich them for the monocyte fraction. The monocyte-enriched population was cultured in the presence of 1000 U/ml 41 WO 29081102557 PCTIJP200S/00290 of GM-CSF (Genzyme) and 1000 U/ml of IL-4 (Genzyme)in AIM V(Invitrogen)containing 2% heat-inactivated autologous seram (AS). After 7 days in the culture, the cytokine-generated DCs were pulsed with 20 micro g/ml of the syn thesized peptides in the presence of 3 micro g/ml of beta 2-microglobulin for 4 hrs at 20 degrees C in AIM-V. These peptide-pulsed DCs were then inactivated by MMC (30micro g/ml for 30 mins) and mixed at a 1:20 ratio with autologous CD8+ T cells, obtained by positive selection with Dynabeads M-450 CD8 (Dynal) and DETACHa

BEAD

T h m (Dynal). These cultures were set up in 48-well plates (Corning); each well contained 1.5x10 4 peptide-pulsed DCs, 3x10 5 CD8+ T cells and 10 ng/ml of IL-7 (Genzyme) in 0.5 ml of AIM-V/2% AS. Three days later, these cultures were sup plemented with IL-2 (CHIRON) to a final concentration of 20 IU/mL On day 7 and 14, the T cells were further restimulated with the autologous peptide-pulsed DCs. The DCs were prepared each time by the same way described above. CTL was tested against peptide-pulsed A24-LCL cells or T2 cells after the 3rd round of peptide stimulation on day 21. [0086] CTL Expansion Procedure CTLs were expanded in culture using the method similar to that described by Riddell SR, et al., (Walter EA et al., (1995) N Engl J Med 333:1038-44.; Riddel SR, et al., (1996) Nature Med. 2:216-23.). A total 5x10 4 of CTLs were resuspended in 25 nl of AIM-V/5% AS with 2 kinds of human B-lymphoblastoid cell lines, inactivated by MMC, in the presence of 40 ng/ml of anti-CD3 monoclonal antibody (Pharmingen). One day after initiating the cultures, 120 IU/ml of IL-2 were added to the cultures. The cultures were fed with fresh AIM-V/5% AS containing 30 IU/ml of IL-2 on days 5, 8 and 11. [0087] Establishment of CTL clones The dilutions were made to have 0.3, 1, and 3 CTLs/well in 96 round-bottomed micro titer plate (Nalge Nunc International). CTLs were cultured with 7x10 4 cells/well of 2 kinds of human B-lymphoblastoid cell lines, 30ng/ml of anti-CD3 antibody, and 125 U/ml of IL-2 in total of 150micro 1/well of AIM-V containing 5%AS. 50 micro 1 / well of IL-2 was added to the medium 10 days later so that IL-2 became 125 U/nd in the final concentration. CTL activity of CTLs was tested on the 14th day, and CTL clones were expanded using the same method above. [0088] Specific CTL activity To examine the specific CTL activity, IFN-gamma ELISPOT assay and IFN-gaimma ELISA assay were perfonned. Briefly, peptide-pulsed A24-LCL or T2 cell (1x10 4 /well) was prepared as stimulator cells. Cultured Cells in 48 wells or CTL clones after limiting dilution were used as responder cells. IFN-gamma ELISPOT assay and ELISA assay were performed under CnNR DCo AARUH455.,I.DOC-6/n/2Ii I -42 manufacture procedure. [0089] Establishment of the cells forcibly expressing either or both of the target gene and HLA-A02 or HLA-A24 The cDNA encoding an open reading frame of target-genes or HLA-A02 or HLA-A24 was amplified by PCR, The PCR-amplified product was cloned into pcDNA3.1 myc-His vector (Invitrogen). The plasmids were transfected into the target cells, HLA-A02 and HLA-A24 null nomal human cell line COS7 or 293T using lipofectamine (Invitrogen) according to the manufacturer's recommended procedures. Alternatively, the plasmid contained the target genes were transfected into A24-LCL by electroporation using GenePulserli (Biorad). Briefly, 2.5x10 6 A24-LCL cells were pulsed with 10 mcg prasrnid at 140V and 1000 micro F. After 2 days from transfection, the transfected cells were treated with Cell dissociation solution and used as the target cells for CTL activity assay. [0090] Cytotoxicity Assay Cytotoxic activity was evaluated by a four-hour 51 Cr release assay. The target cells were pulsed with a 20 micro g/mL concentration of peptide overnight. The target cells were labeled with 100 micro Ci of Na2'CrO 4 at 37 degrees C for one hour, and then washed three times with RPM11640. The target cells (lx 10 4 /100 micro L) and 100 micro L of effector cells at various numbers with a total volume of 200 micro L were placed into a round-bottomed 96-well microtiter plate (Corning), and cultured at 37 degrees C in a CO 2 incubator for four hours. After culturing, 100 micro L of the supernatant was collected from each well, and measured the radioactivity using a gamma counter. Spontaneous release was the radioactivity from the target cells with medium in the absence of effector cells, and maximum releasewas the radioactivity from the target cells with 1 M HCL. The Percentage of specific cytotoxicity was determined by calculating as following formula: % Specific lysis = [(experimental release - spontaneous release) / (maximum release spontaneous release)] xlOO. [0091] RESULTS Enhanced CDH3, EPHA4, ECT2, HIG2, INHBB, KIF20A, KNTC2, TTK and URLC10 expression in cancers The global gene expression profile data obtained from various cancers using cDNA microarray revealed that the expression of the following genes was elevated.

4B WO 2008/102557 PCT/JP20WO080290 Positive donor number indicates the number of doner whoes CDS+-T-cells can be induced to the specific CTL by the ex vivo stimulation with antigen-presenting cells. This is shown as (positive donor number /hole donor nember). Positive well number indicates the number of wells where specific IPN-gamma production can be detected by IFN-gamma ELISPOT assay. 4 to 8 wells can be prepared from one donor. This is shown as (positive wels number / the number of hole wells tested by IFN-gamma ELISPOT assay), Positve CTL line indicates the number of CTL line established from positive wells. The generation of CTL line is determined by ELISA. This is shown as (established CTL line number / the number of positive wells tested by IFN-gamma ELISPOT assay). No positive donor is not defined by no detectable positive wells, but by no established CTL line. The peptides showed by bold character in tables possesses the stimulation activity of the T cells. No data at positive donor number, positive wil number and positive CTL line in dicating "-" means that the ptptides can't be synthesized for any reason.

For example, the typical negative peptide (CDH3-A24-10-248) were shown in Figure la. In this invention, the peptides which could establish CTL line were selected as potent CTL stimulation peptide. [0125] Establishment for CTL clones stimulated with CDH3 derived peptides Furthermore, the limiting dilution from these CTL lines was performed according to the protocols set forth in the "Materials and Methods" section above. The establishment of CTL clones from CDH3-A24-10-807 (SEQ ID NO: 30) #5 and CDH3-A24-10-655 (SEQ ID NO: 344) #1 CTL line are shown in Figureif and g. CTL clones had potent and specific CTL activities against the peptide-pulsed target as compared to the activities against target without peptide pulse. [0126] Specific CTL activity against the target cells expressing CDH3 and HLA-A*2402 The established CTL line raised against these peptides were examined for their ability to recognize the target cells expressing CDH3 and HLA-A*2402. Specific CTL activity against COS7 transfected with both full length CDH3 gene and the HLA-A*2402 molecule, which serves as a specific model for the target cells endogenously express CDH3 and HLA-A*2402, was tested using as effector cells the CTL lines raised by CDH3-A24-10-807 (SEQ ID NO: 30) and CDH3-A24-10-655 (SEQ ID NO: 344). COS7 transfected with full length CDH3 but not HLA-A*2402 and COS7 transfected with HLA-A*2402 but not full length CDH3 were prepared as controls. The CTL clones demonstrated the highest specific CTL activity against COS7 that was transfected with both CDH3 and HLA-A2402 (Figure If and g). These results clearly demonstrate that CDH3-A24-10-807 (SEQ ID NO: 30) and CDH3-A24 10-655 (SEQ ID NO: 344) are naturally expressed on the target cell surface with HLA-A2402 molecule and recognize CTL. Furthermore, these peptides are epitope peptides, which may serve as cancer vaccines targeting CDH3 expressed tumors.

Those CTL lines having higher specific CTL activities against the peptide-pulsed target as compared to the activities against target without peptide pulse were determined by ELISA. Especially, CTL lines stimulated with EphA4-A02-9-501 (SEQ ID NO: 376) and EphA4-A02-9-165 (SEQ ID NO: 379) were tested by 51Cr-release assay according to the protocols set forth in the "Materials and Methods" section above. Results are shown in Figure 2a-h. While, other peptides shown in table 3 could not establish the CTL lines despite possible binding activity with HLA-A*2402 or HLA A*0201. For example, the typical negative peptide (EphA4-A24-9-3 84) were shown in Figure 2a. In this invention, the peptides which could establish CTL line were selected as potdht CTL stimulation peptides. [0128] Stimulation of the T cells using the predicted peptides from ECT2 restricted with HLA-A*2402, and establishment for CTL lines stimulated with ECT2 derived peptides CTLs for those peptides derived from ECT2 were generated according to the protocols set forth in the "Materials and Methods" section above. Resulting CTLs having detectable specific CTL activity as determined by an IFN-ganma ELISPOT assay are shown in Figure 3. In particular, ECT2-A24-9-515(SEQ ID NO: 80), ECT2-A24-10-40 (SEQ ID NO: 100) and ECT2-A24-10-101 (SEQ ID NO: 101) showed potent IFN-gamma production, and the cells in the positive well number #7 stimulated with ECT2-A24-9-515 (SEQ ID NO: 80), #2 with ECT2-A24-10-40 (SEQ ID NO: 100) and #1 with ECT2-A24 10-101 (SEQ ID NO: 101) were expanded and CTL lines were established. Those CTL lines having higher specific CTL activities against the peptide-pulsed target as compared to the activities against target without peptide pulse were determined by ELISA. Results are shown in Figure 3a-d. While, other peptides shown in table 4 could not establish the CTL lines despite possible binding activity with HLA-A*2402. For example, the typical negative peptide (ECT2-A24-10-322, ECT2-A24-9-657 and ECT2-A24-10-81 1) were shown in Figure 3a. In this invention, the peptides which could establish CTL line were selected as potent CTL stimulation peptide. [0129] Establishment for CTL clones stimulated with ECT2 derived petides Furthermore, the limiting dilution from these CTL lines was performed according to the protocols set forth in the "Materials and Methods" section above. The establishment of CTL clones from ECT2-A24-10-40 (SEQ ID NO: 100) #2 CTL line are shown in Figure 3c. CTL clones had potent and specific CTL activities against the peptide-pulsed target as compared to the activities against target without peptide pulse.

H: \aar\Interwoven\RPortbl\DCC\AAR\9637143_1.DOC-29/02/2016 - 68 [0130] Specific CTL activity against the target cells expressing ECT2 and HLA-A*2402 The established CTL line raised against these peptides were examined for their ability to recognize the target cells expressing ECT2 and HLA-A*2402. Specific CTL activity against COS7 transfected with both full length ECT2 gene and the HLA-A*2402 molecule, which serves as a specific model for the target cells endogenously express ECT2 and HLA-A*2402, was tested using as effector cells the CTL clone raised by ECT2-A24-10-40 (SEQ ID NO: 100) and the CTL line raised by ECT2-A24-10-101 (SEQ ID NO: 101). COS7 transfected with full length ECT2 but not HLA-A*2402 and COS7 transfected with HLA-A*2402 but not full length ECT2 (replaced other gene e.g. URLC10 or INHBB) were prepared as controls. The CTL line demonstrated the highest specific CTL activity against COS7 that was transfected with both ECT2 and HLA-A2402 (Figure 3c and d). These results clearly demonstrate that ECT2-A24-10-40 (SEQ ID NO: 100) and ECT2-A24 10-101 (SEQ ID NO: 101) are naturally expressed on the target cell surface with HLA-A2402 molecule and recognize CTL. Furthermore, these peptides are epitope peptides, which may serve as cancer vaccines targeting ECT2 expressed tumors. [0131] Cytotoxic activity against cancer cell line endogenously expressing HLA-A*2402 and ECT2 Furthermore, Cytotoxic activity was examined by cytotoxicity assay according to the protocols set forth in the "Materials and Methods" section above. As a result, as shown in Fig. 3b, CTL clone stimulated with ECT2-A24-9-515 (SEQ ID NO: 80) showed remarkably high cytotoxic effect towards HLA-A24-positive and ECT-positive cancer cell lines TE6, compared to that towards HLA-A24-negative and ECT-positive cancer cell lines TE5. [0132] Stimulation of the T cells using the predicted peptides from HIG2 restricted with HLA A*2402 or HLA-A*0201, and establishment for CTL lines stimulated with HIG2 derived peptides CTLs for those peptides derived from HIG2 were generated according to the protocols set forth in the "Materials and Methods" section above . Resulting CTLs having detectable specific CTL activity as determined by an IFN-gamma ELISPOT assay are shown in Figure 4. In particular, HIG2-A24-9-19 (SEQ ID NO: 110), HIG2-A24-9-22 (SEQ ID NO: 111), HIG2 A24-9-8 (SEQ ID NO: 387), HIG2-A24-10-7 (SEQ ID NO: 112), HIG2-A24-10-18 (SEQ ID NO: 394), HIG2-A02-9-8 (SEQ ID NO: 114), HIG2-A02-9-15 (SEQ ID NO: 116), HIG2 A02-9-4 (SEQ ID NO: 117) and HIG2-A02-10-8 (SEQ ID NO: 121) demonstrated potent IFN-gamma production by IFN-gamma ELISPOT assay, and the cells in the positive well number #6 stimulated with HIG2-A24-9-19 (SEQ ID NO: H: \aar\Interwoven\RPortbl\DCC\AAR\9637143_1.DOC-29/02/2016 - 69 110), #7 with HIG2-A24-9-22 (SEQ ID NO: 111), #5 with HIG2-A24-9-8 (SEQ ID NO: 387), #1 with HIG2-A24-10-7 (SEQ ID NO: 112), #7 with HIG2-A24-10-18 (SEQ ID NO: 394), #10 with HIG2-A02-9-8 (SEQ ID NO: 114), #10 with HIG2-A02-9-15 (SEQ ID NO: 116), #10 with HIG2-A02-9-4 (SEQ ID NO: 117) and #9 with HIG2-A02-10-8 (SEQ ID NO: 121) were expanded and CTL lines were established. Those CTL lines having higher specific CTL activities against the peptide-pulsed target as compared to the activities against target without peptide pulse were determined by ELISA. Results are shown in Figure 4a-j. While, other peptides shown in table 5 could not establish the CTL lines despite possible binding activity with HLA-A*2402. For example, the typical negative peptide (HIG2-A24-9-7) were shown in Figure 4a. In this invention, the peptides which could establish CTL line were selected as potent CTL stimulation peptide. [0133] Establishment for CTL clones stimulated with HIG2 derived peptides Furthermore, the limiting dilution from these CTL lines was performed according to the protocols set forth in the "Materials and Methods" section above.

These results suggest that the sequences of SEQ ID NO: 19, 22, 30, 34, 344, 358,41, 44, 46, 48, 78, 376, 379, 80, 100, 101, 110, 111, 387, 112, 394, 114, 116, 117, 121, 395, 133, 135, 137, 426, 174, 178, 186, 194, 196, 202, 210, 213, 214, 217, 223, 227, 228, 233, 254, 271, 272 or 288 are unique and thus possess a low risk of raising un intended immunologic response to any unrelated molecule. [0161] DISCUSSION Identification of new TAAs, particularly those that induce potent and specific anti tumor immune responses, warrants further development of the clinical application of peptide vaccination strategies in various types of cancer (Boon T. et al., (1996) JExp' Med 183: 725-9.; van der Bruggen P et al., (1991) Science 254: 1643-7.; Brichard V et at, (1993) J Exp Med 178: 489-95.; Kawakami Y et al, (1994) J Exp Med 180: 347-52.; Shichijo S et al., (1998) J Exp Med 187:277-88.; Chen YT et al., (1997) Proc.NatLAcd.

[0162] cDNA microarray technologies can disclose comprehensive profiles of gene ex pression of malignant cells (Lin YM, et al, Oncogene. 2002 Jun 13;21:4120-8.; Kitahara 0, et al., Cancer Res. 2001 May 1;61:3544-9.; Suzuki C, et al., Cancer Res. 2003 Nov 1;63:7038-41.; Ashida S, Cancer Res. 2004 Sep 1;64:5963-72.; Ochi K, et al., Int J Oncol. 2004 Mar;24(3):647-55.; Kaneta Y, et al., Int J Oncol. 2003 Sep;23:681-91.; Obama K, Hepatology. 2005 Jun;41:1339-48.; Kato T, et al., Cancer Res. 2005 Jul 1;65:5638-46.; Kitahara 0, et al., Neoplasia. 2002 Jul-Aug;4:295-303.; Saito-Hisaminato A et al., DNA Res 2002, 9: 35-45.) and, find utility in the identi fication of potential TAAs. Among the transcripts that are up-regulated in various cancers, novel human genes, termed CDH3, EPHA4, ECT2, NIG2, INHBB, KIF20A, KNTC2, TTK and URLC 10, were identified using these technologies. [0163] As demonstrated above, CDH3, EPHA4, ECT2, IG2, ENHBB, KIF20A, KNTC2, TTK and URLC 10, are over-expressed in various cancers but show minimal ex pression in nonnal tissues. In addition, these genes have been shown to have a sig nificant function related to cell proliferation. Thus, peptides delved from CDH3, EPHA4, ECT2, HIG2, INHBB, KIF20A, KNTC2, TTK and URLC1O can serve as TAA epitopes, which, in turn, can be used to induce significant and specific immune responses against cancer cells.

79 WO 2008/102557 PCT/JP20081000290 Thus, as CDH3, EPHA4, ECT2, HIG2, ID B, KIP20A, KNTC2, TTK and URLC1O aM novel TAAs, vaccines using these epitope peptides find utility as immuno therapeutics against various carcinomas or other disease expressing these molecules. Industrial Applicability [0164] The present invention identifies new TAAs, parficularly those which induce potent and specific anti-tumor immune responses. Such TAAs warrants further development as peptide vaccines against diseases associated with the over-expression of CDH3, EPHA4, ECT2, IG2 ,.NHBB, KF2OA, KNTC2, TTK and/or ,URLCIO e.g. cancers.
