<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide novel immunogenic peptides that work extremely effectively as cancer vaccines; and to provide drugs for treating and preventing tumors, containing such peptides. <P>SOLUTION: The present invention provides peptides having a predetermined amino acid sequence, as well as peptides having the amino acid sequences in which 1, 2, or several (e.g., up to 5) amino acids are substituted, deleted, or added, provided the peptides possess cytotoxic T cell inducibility. The present invention also provides: drugs for treating or preventing a disease associated with over-expression of the CDH3, EPHA4, ECT2, HIG2, INHBB, KIF20A, KNTC2, TTK and/or URLC10, e.g. cancers, containing as an active ingredient one or more of these peptides; and vaccines. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2013,JPO&INPIT |
