AE37 HER2-targeted vaccine in the prevention of breast cancer recurrence: A mini narrative review of current evidence. (PubMed, Medicine (Baltimore))
While the AE37 HER2-targeted vaccine demonstrates a promising safety profile and potential efficacy in specific breast cancer subgroups, an understanding requires addressing identified limitations and advancing research in nuanced directions. This paper provides a foundation for navigating the complex landscape of breast cancer immunotherapy with the AE37 vaccine.

Prospective, randomized, single-blinded, multi-center phase II trial of two HER2 peptide vaccines, GP2 and AE37, in breast cancer patients to prevent recurrence. (PubMed, Breast Cancer Res Treat)
This phase II trial reveals that AE37 and GP2 are safe and possibly associated with improved clinical outcomes of DFS in certain subgroups of breast cancer patients. With these findings, further evaluations are warranted of AE37 and GP2 vaccines given in combination and/or separately for specific subsets of breast cancer patients based on their disease biology.

AE37: a HER2-targeted vaccine for the prevention of breast cancer recurrence. (PubMed, Expert Opin Investig Drugs)
Over-expression has been correlated with poorest overall survival and has been the target of successful therapies such as trastuzumab. Expert Opinion: Future trials utilizing the AE37 vaccine to treat other HER2-expressing malignancies are likely to see similar success, and this will be enhanced by combination immunotherapy. Ii-Key modification of other peptides of interest across oncology and virology could yield impressive results over the longer term.
