Peptide-based cancer vaccines have shown promising results in preclinical trials focusing on tumor immunotherapy. However, the presence of hydrophobic amino acid segments within these peptide sequences poses challenges in their synthesis, purification, and solubility, thereby hindering their potential use as cancer vaccines. In this study, we successfully synthesized peptide sequences derived from mesothelin (MSLN), a tumor-associated antigen overexpressed in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) by conjugating them with monodisperse polyethylene glycol (PEG). By PEGylating mesothelin epitopes of varying lengths (ranging from 9 to 38 amino acids) and hydrophobicity (60-90%), we achieved an effective method to improve the peptide yield and facilitate the processes of synthesis and purification. PEGylation significantly enhanced the solubility, facilitating the single-step purification of lengthy hydrophobic peptides. Most importantly, PEGylation did not compromise cell viability and had little to no effect on the immunogenicity of the peptides. In contrast, the addition of a palmitoyl group to increase immunogenicity led to reduced yield and solubility. Overall, PEGylation proves to be an effective technique for enhancing the solubility and broadening the range of utility of diverse long hydrophobic peptides.
