Recently, analyses of gene expression profiles of cancer and normal cells using cDNA microarray technologies have provided an effective approach for the identification of tumor-associated antigens. Two novel antigens, RNF43 and TOMM 34, were found to be up-regulated in more than 80% of colorectal cancer tissues as compared to the corresponding noncancerous mucosa. We conducted a clinical trial of two novel peptide vaccine derived from RNF43 and TOMM34 in combination with UFT/LV for the treatment of recurrent colorectal cancer. Among 23 patients, 21 patients had completed the protocol. All patients were well tolerated with no severe toxicities. The median survival time was 24.4 months. Furthermore, we investigated the relationship between CTL response to both antigens and overall survival. The best long-term survival was observed in the group with CTL responses against both antigens, followed by the group showing CTL responses against only RNE43 or TOMM34. The patients with no response had the lowest survival. Further clinical trials are warranted.
