Abstract

Personalization of immunotherapies such as cancer vaccines and adoptive T cell therapy depends on identification of patient-specific neo-epitopes that can be specifically targeted. MuPeXI, the mutant peptide extractor and informer, is a program to identify tumor-specific peptides and assess their potential to be neo-epitopes. The program input is a file with somatic mutation calls, a list of HLA types, and optionally a gene expression profile. The output is a table with all tumor-specific peptides derived from nucleotide substitutions, insertions, and deletions, along with comprehensive annotation, including HLA binding and similarity to normal peptides. The peptides are sorted according to a priority score which is intended to roughly predict immunogenicity. We applied MuPeXI to three tumors for which predicted MHC-binding peptides had been screened for T cell reactivity, and found that MuPeXI was able to prioritize immunogenic peptides with an area under the curve of 0.63. Compared to other available tools, MuPeXI provides more information and is easier to use. MuPeXI is available as stand-alone software and as a web server at http://www.cbs.dtu.dk/services/MuPeXI .

摘要

癌症疫苗和过继性T细胞疗法等免疫疗法的个性化取决于对可被特异性靶向的患者特异性新抗原表位的识别。MuPeXI(突变肽提取器和信息器)是一个用于识别肿瘤特异性肽并评估其成为新抗原表位潜力的程序。该程序的输入是一个包含体细胞突变调用、HLA类型列表以及可选的基因表达谱的文件。输出是一个表格,其中包含所有源自核苷酸替换、插入和缺失的肿瘤特异性肽,以及全面的注释,包括HLA结合和与正常肽的相似性。这些肽根据一个优先级分数进行排序,该分数旨在大致预测免疫原性。我们将MuPeXI应用于三种肿瘤,针对这些肿瘤已筛选了预测的MHC结合肽的T细胞反应性,发现MuPeXI能够以0.63的曲线下面积对免疫原性肽进行优先级排序。与其他可用工具相比,MuPeXI提供了更多信息且更易于使用。MuPeXI可作为独立软件使用,也可通过网络服务器访问,网址为http://www.cbs.dtu.dk/services/MuPeXI
