In our previous study, we demonstrated that a peptide derived from the novel centrosome residing protein Cep55/c10orf3 can be targeted by the cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTLs) in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) of breast carcinoma patients. In this report, we evaluated the feasibility of cancer immunotherapy using Cep55/c10orf3 peptide for colorectal carcinoma (CRC). To evaluate the expression of Cep55/c10orf3 in CRC tissues, we performed immunohistochemical staining of using anti-Cep55/c10orf3 monoclonal antibody. Sixty-three percent cases showed weak positive for Cep55/c10orf3 in total 70 CRC cases. The Cep55/c10orf3 expression intention was collated with high histological grade of CRC. Thus, we hypothesized that Cep55/c10orf3 can also be the target of CTLs in CRC cases. We generated CTLs from PBMCs of human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-A24-positive colorectal carcinoma patients using HLA-A24-restricted Cep55/c10orf3 peptides. Two of 6 colorectal cancer patients were reactive for the Cep55/c10orf3_193(10) peptide, which was the only immunogenic peptide in breast carcinoma patients. CTL clone specific for Cep55/c10orf3_193(10) recognized and lysed HLA-A24 (+) and Cep55/c10orf3 (+) colorectal carcinoma cell lines. In addition, 1 of 6 colorectal carcinoma patients was reactive for the Cep55/c10orf3_402(11) and Cep55/c10orf3_283(12) peptides, but not for Cep55/c10orf3_193(10) with the ELISPOT assay. These observations suggest that the antigenic peptide repertoire presented by HLA-A24 in colorectal carcinoma might be different from that in breast carcinoma. Thus, these peptide vaccination peptide mixture of Cep55/c10orf3_193(10), Cep55/c10orf3_402(11) and Cep55/c10orf3_283(12) might be more effective than a single peptide in the treatment of colorectal carcinoma patients.

PD-L1/PD-1 checkpoint inhibitors (CPIs) are mainstream agents for cancer immunotherapy, but the prognosis is unsatisfactory in solid tumor patients lacking preexisting T-cell reactivity. Adjunct therapy strategies including the intratumoral administration of immunostimulants aim to address this limitation. CpG oligodeoxynucleotides (ODNs), TLR9 agonists that can potentiate adaptive immunity, have been widely investigated to tackle PD-L1/PD-1 resistance, but clinical success has been hindered by inconsistent efficacy and immune-related toxicities caused by systemic exposure.

Objective: Endometrial carcinomas with mismatch repair deficiency (MMRd) and no specific molecular profile (NSMP) are considered to have intermediate prognoses. However, potential prognostic differences between these molecular subgroups remain unclear due to the lack of standardized control for clinicopathologic factors. This study aims to evaluate outcomes of MMRd and NSMP endometrial carcinomas across guideline-based clinicopathologic risk groups.

Purpose: Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the second leading cause of cancer-related deaths worldwide. Oxaliplatin (OXA) is currently the primary chemotherapeutic agent for CRC, but its efficacy is limited by the tumor microenvironment (TME). Here, we present a combined approach of chemotherapy and TME modulation for CRC treatment.

Background: Colorectal cancer (CRC) is a highly malignant and aggressive gastrointestinal tumor. Due to its weak immunogenicity and limited immune, cell infiltration lead to ineffective clinical outcomes. Therefore, to improve the current prophylaxis and treatment scheme, offering a favorable strategy efficient against CRC is urgently needed.
