Vaccination with a nanoparticle E7 vaccine can prevent tumor recurrence following surgery in a human papillomavirus head and neck cancer model

High-risk human papillomavirus (HPV) encoding E6/E7-HPV oncogenes are responsible for a subgroup of head and neck squamous-cell carcinoma (HNSCC) and thus therapeutic E7-vaccines may be used to control HPV+HNSCC tumors. Herein we investigated the effects o ...

Myeloid Cells Orchestrate Systemic Immunosuppression, Impairing the Efficacy of Immunotherapy against HPV+ Cancers

Melody Swartz, Nadine Fournier, Douglas Hanahan, Stephan Wullschleger, Gabriele Galliverti, Mélanie Louise Tichet

Cancers induced by human papillomaviruses (HPV) should be responsive to immunotherapy by virtue of expressing the immunogenic oncoproteins E6/E7. However, advanced forms of cervical cancer, driven by HPV, are poorly responsive to immune response-enhancing ...

Carboplatin/paclitaxel, E7-vaccination and intravaginal CpG as tri-therapy towards efficient regression of genital HPV16 tumors

Douglas Hanahan, Gabriele Galliverti

High-risk human papillomavirus (HPV) are responsible for genital and oral cancers associated with the expression of the E6/E7 HPV oncogenes. Therapeutic vaccines targeting those oncogenes can only partially control tumor progression, highlighting the neces ...

Nanoparticle Conjugation of Human Papillomavirus 16 E7-long Peptides Enhances Therapeutic Vaccine Efficacy against Solid Tumors in Mice

Melody Swartz, Douglas Hanahan, Sylvie Hauert, Stephan Wullschleger, Gabriele Galliverti, Mélanie Louise Tichet

Treatment of patients bearing human papillomavirus (HPV)-related cancers with synthetic long-peptide (SLP) therapeutic vaccines has shown promising results in clinical trials against premalignant lesions, whereas responses against later stage carcinomas ha ...

Advancing immunotherapy for HPV-related cancers: Improving therapeutic vaccination approaches and understanding the immunosuppressive role of myeloid cells

Gabriele Galliverti

Human Papilloma Viruses (HPVs) are the most common sexually transmitted agents worldwide, and chronic infection with oncogenic HPVs can lead to the development of lesions in the cervix, the vulva, and the head and neck region. In some patients, these lesio ...

Matrix-binding checkpoint immunotherapies enhance antitumor efficacy and reduce adverse events

Jeffrey Alan Hubbell, Melody Swartz, Lambert Charles François Potin, Hans Mattias Larsson, Gabriele Galliverti, Jun Ishihara, Kazuto Fukunaga

Immune checkpoint blockade exhibits considerable antitumor activity, but previous studies have reported instances of severe treatment-related adverse events. We sought to explore local immune checkpoint blockade, with an antibody (Ab) form that would be re ...

Advances in pancreatic islet monolayer culture on glass surfaces enable super-resolution microscopy and insights into beta cell ciliogenesis and proliferation

Jeffrey Alan Hubbell, Olivier Burri, Miriella Carmela Pasquier, Andreas Wiederkehr, Steinunn Baekkeskov Hanahan, Edward Allen Phelps, Gabriele Galliverti, Chiara Cianciaruso

A robust and reproducible method for culturing monolayers of adherent and well-spread primary islet cells on glass coverslips is required for detailed imaging studies by super-resolution and livecell microscopy. Guided by an observation that dispersed isle ...
