OnCo

A protein normally confined to testis that most melanomas and many other cancers switch on; T-cell receptor drugs can recognise fragments of it. This dossier gathers the 1 product (0 approved), 1 trial, 0 pathways and 0 resistance routes in the corpus that involve it, with external identifiers so it can be joined to UniProt, ChEMBL, Open Targets and the rest of biology.

Biology

Represses retinoic acid receptor signalling; drives proliferation and blocks differentiation; presented on HLA class I as peptides such as PRAME 425-433 on A*02:01.

Where it is found
  • Cutaneous melanoma (~90%)
  • Uveal melanoma (subset, associated with metastasis)
  • Ovarian, endometrial, NSCLC, breast (subsets)
  • Synovial sarcoma
