Brief Summary
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and time to progression of HLA-A\*2402 restricted epitope peptides URLC10, TTK, and KOC1, emulsified with Montanide ISA 51.
Detailed Description
URLC10, KOC1 and TTK have been identified as cancer specific molecules especially in non small cell lung cancer using genome-wide expression profile analysis by cDNA microarray technique. In a prior s...
