TP B13 established a modular vaccine platform using molecular (glyco)peptide building blocks. These carry tumor-associated antigens or immuno-stimulatory components and co-assemble into anisotropic multifunc-tional nanorods. The platform was successfully applied as fully synthetic vaccines against tumor-associated Mucin 1 during the previous funding period and will now be used to develop vaccines against malignant melanoma. Synthetic B-cell epitopes derived from melanoma associated surface protein CSPG4 will be co-presented on the nanorod surface, with T-cell epitopes and immunomodulating agents, and will be evaluated in vivo in terms of tumor-specific antibody induction and therapeutic effect.
