Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Abstract Worldwide prevalence of cervical cancer decreased significantly with the use of human papilloma virus (HPV)‐targeted prophylactic vaccines. However, these multivalent antiviral vaccines are inert against established tumors, which leave patients with surgical ablative options possibly resulting in long‐term reproductive complications and morbidity. In an attempt to bypass this unmet medical need, we designed a new E7 protein‐based vaccine formulation using Accum™, a technology platform designed to promote endosome‐to‐cytosol escape as a means to enhance protein accumulation in target cells. Prophylactic vaccination of immunocompetent mice using the Accum‐E7 vaccine (aE7) leads to complete protection from cervical cancer despite multiple challenges conducted with ascending C3.43 cellular doses (0.5‐, 1.0‐, and 2.0 × 10 6 cells). Moreover, the humoral response induced by aE7 was higher in magnitude compared with naked E7 protein vaccination and displayed potent inhibitory effects on C3.43 proliferation in vitro. When administered therapeutically to animals with pre‐established C3.43 or Tal3 tumors, the vaccine‐induced response synergized with multiple immune checkpoint blockers (anti‐PD‐1, anti‐CTLA4, and anti‐CD47) to effectively control tumor growth. Mechanistically, the observed therapeutic effect requires cross‐presenting dendritic cells as well as CD8 T cells predominantly, with a non‐negligible role played by both CD4 + and CD19 + lymphocytes. good laboratory practice (GLP) studies revealed that aE7 is immunogenic and well tolerated by immunocompetent mice with no observed adverse effects despite the use of a fourfold exceeding dose. In a nutshell, aE7 represents an ideal vaccine candidate for further clinical development as it uses a single engineered protein capable of exhibiting both prophylactic and therapeutic activity.

Teacher imitation

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
