PURPOSE Our clinical trials shows the safety and clinical efficacy of Wilms’ tumor 1 (WT1) human leukocyte antigen (HLA) class I (Izumoto S et al. J Neurosurg. 2008) and class II (Tsuboi A et al. Cancer Immunol Immunother. 2019) peptide vaccination for recurrent malignant gliomas have been established. We have developed a cocktail vaccine (WT1 trio) containing two class I peptides (HLA-A*24:02 and HLA-A*02:01) and one II class peptide to improve more effective immunological response and improve patient’s prognosis. Clinical trial of a cocktail vaccination using WT1 HLA class I and II peptides for recurrent malignant gliomas is planned to verify its safety, clinical efficacy and usefulness of surrogate markers. PATIENTS AND METHODS Twenty-three patients with recurrent malignant gliomas, which showed WT1-positive in tumor samples and HLA-A*24:02 or HLA-A*02:01-positive in blood sample, were enrolled. These patients (age: 26–72 years old, average: 49.4) included 15 cases of glioblastomas and 8 of anaplastic astrocytomas. Patients received a WT1 trio vaccine intradermally, 7 times at 2-week intervals during 3 months.WT1-DTH and WT1-IgG antibody were regularly measured. Vaccine-related adverse events, best clinical response and the transfer rate of long-term administration of WT1 trio vaccination were estimated. RESULTS WT1-DTH positive cases were 12, WT1-IgG antibody positive were in 11. In most patients, WT1 -DTH positiveness coincided with that of WT1-IgG antibody. 9 of 11 cases showed stable disease at 3 months and transferred long-term administration of WT1 trio vaccination. Transfer rate in GBM and AA of long-term administration was 33% and 25%, respectively. Grade1 skin eruption was observed at the injection sites in 15 cases, but no significant adverse events related with vaccination were shown. CONCLUSION the safety and clinical efficacy of WT1 trio vaccination was verified for recurrent malignant gliomas. WT1-DTH and WT1-IgG antibody may be useful surrogate markers.
