Abstract

This invention provides compositions and methods for treating and vaccinating against a HER2/neu antigen-expressing tumor and inducing an immune response against the same in a subject. In a specific embodiment the invention is the use of a recombinant attenuated Listeria in the manufacture of a medicament for delaying or preventing metastatic disease in a subject with a HER2/neu-expressing osteosarcoma wherein said recombinant attenuated Listeria comprises a nucleic acid molecule encoding a recombinant polypeptide, wherein said recombinant polypeptide comprises a HER2/neu chimeric antigen fused to an additional polypeptide, wherein said nucleic acid molecule comprises a first open reading frame encoding said recombinant polypeptide, wherein said nucleic acid molecule further comprises a sec-ond open reading frame encoding a metabolic enzyme, and wherein said metabolic enzyme complements an endogenous gene that is mutated in the chromosome of said recombinant Listeria strain, wherein said recombinant attenuated Listeria is to be administered as an initial vaccine, and as a first booster vaccine between 5 and 10 months after said initial vaccine, and as a second booster vaccine between 4 and 15 months after said first booster vaccine. This system does not require the use of an antibiotic resistance marker to maintain the vector encoding the recombinant polypeptide in the Listeria. The recombinant at-tenuated Listeria may also be used in a method of treating canine HER2/neu-expressing osteosarcoma.

Claims (21)

What is claimed is:
1. Use of a recombinant attenuated Listeria in the manufacture of a medicament for delaying or preventing metastatic disease in a subject with a HER2/neu-expressing osteosarcoma wherein said recombinant attenuated Listeria comprises a nucleic acid molecule encoding a recombinant polypeptide, wherein said recombinant polypeptide comprises a HER2/neu chimeric antigen fused to an additional polypeptide, wherein said nucleic acid molecule comprises a first open reading frame encoding said recombinant polypeptide, wherein said nucleic acid molecule further comprises a second open reading frame encoding a metabolic enzyme, and wherein said metabolic enzyme complements an endogenous gene that is mutated in the chromosome of said recombinant Listeria strain, wherein said recombinant attenuated Listeria is to be administered as an initial vaccine, and as a first booster vaccine between 5 and 10 months after said initial vaccine, and as a second booster vaccine between 4 and 15 months after said first booster vaccine.
2. The use of claim 1, wherein said recombinant attenuated Listeria is to be administered at of about 3.3 x 10 Listeria.
3. The use of claim 1 or 2, wherein said subject is a child, an adolescent or an adult.
4. The use of any one of claims 1 to 3, wherein said HER2/neu chimeric antigen is a human chimeric HER2/neu comprising at least 5, 9, 13, 14, or 17 of the mapped human MHC-class I epitopes.
5. The use of any one of claims 1 to 4, wherein said nucleic acid molecule is in a plasmid in said recombinant Listeria vaccine strain.
6. The use of claim 5, wherein said plasmid is stably maintained in said recombinant Listeria vaccine strain in the absence of antibiotic selection.
7. The use of any one of claims 1 to 6, wherein said recombinant Listeria comprises a mutation in the dal, the dat, and the Actin assembly-inducing protein (actA) virulence gene.
8. The use of any one of claims 1 to 7, wherein said additional polypeptide is selected from the group consisting of: a) non-hemolytic LLO protein or N-terminal fragment, b) a Proline-Glutamate-Serine-Threonine (PEST) sequence, or c) an ActA fragment.
9. The use of any one of claims 1 to 8, wherein said metabolic enzyme encoded by said second open reading frame is an alanine racemase enzyme or a D-amino acid transferase enzyme.
10. The use of any one of claims 1 to 9, further comprising an independent adjuvant.
11. The use of claim 10, wherein said adjuvant comprises a granulocyte/macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF) protein, saponin QS21, monophosphoryl lipid A, or an unmethylated CpG-containing oligonucleotide.
12. The use of any one of claims 1 to 11, wherein said osteosarcoma is a pediatric osteosarcoma.
13. A method of delaying or preventing metastatic disease in a canine subject with a HER2/neu-expressing osteosarcoma said method comprising administering a composition comprising a recombinant attenuated Listeria comprising a nucleic acid molecule encoding a recombinant polypeptide, wherein said recombinant polypeptide comprises a HER2/neu chimeric antigen fused to an additional polypeptide, wherein said nucleic acid molecule comprises a first open reading frame encoding said recombinant polypeptide, wherein said nucleic acid molecule further comprises a second open reading frame encoding a metabolic enzyme, and wherein said metabolic enzyme complements an endogenous gene that is mutated in the chromosome of said recombinant Listeria strain, wherein said recombinant attenuated Listeria is to be administered as an initial vaccine, and as a first booster vaccine between 5 and 10 months after said initial vaccine, and as a second booster vaccine between 4 and 15 months after said first booster vaccine.
14. The method of claim 13, comprising administering about 3.3 x 10 recombinant attenuated Listeria.
15. The method of claim 13 or 14, wherein said nucleic acid molecule is in a plasmid in said recombinant Listeria vaccine strain.
16. The method of claim 15, wherein said plasmid is stably maintained in said recombinant Listeria vaccine strain in the absence of antibiotic selection.
17. The method of any one of claims 13 to 16, wherein said recombinant Listeria comprises a mutation in the dal, the dat, and the actA virulence gene.
18. The method of any one of claims 13 to 17, wherein said additional polypeptide is selected from the group consisting of: a) non-hemolytic LLO protein or N-terminal fragment, b) a Proline-Glutamate-Serine-Threonine (PEST) sequence, or c) an Actin assembly-inducing protein (ActA) fragment.
19. The method of any one of claims 13 to 18, wherein said metabolic enzyme encoded by said second open reading frame is an alanine racemase enzyme or a D-amino acid transferase enzyme.
20. The method of any one of claims 13 to 19, further comprising an independent adjuvant.
21. The method of claim 20, wherein said adjuvant comprises a granulocyte/macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF) protein, saponin QS21, monophosphoryl lipid A, or an unmethylated CpG-containing oligonucleotide. '3f\l » pA&ti&Z «.LO- a»H«»2 112 3 1~ UQQS^m 2~Lm~LLOCMief2 3~AQX531~164
