Cancer-testis antigen expression is shared between epithelial ovarian cancer tumors

Highlights • Heterogeneous expression of Cancer-testis antigens was found in epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) tumors. • Cancer-testis antigen expression is shared between EOC tumors. • MAGE-A4, MAGE-A1, MAGE-A3, OY-TES-1 and MAGE-C1 being shared among 95% of all specimens analyzed. • SP17, GAGE, NY-E...

Zusammenfassung:Highlights • Heterogeneous expression of Cancer-testis antigens was found in epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) tumors. • Cancer-testis antigen expression is shared between EOC tumors. • MAGE-A4, MAGE-A1, MAGE-A3, OY-TES-1 and MAGE-C1 being shared among 95% of all specimens analyzed. • SP17, GAGE, NY-ESO-1 and XAGE-1D expression associated with higher risk of disease progression. • A multi-antigen vaccination strategy could be a more suitable immunotherapeutic approach in EOC.
