HB-200
HB-200 is a vaccine built from two harmless engineered viruses that teach the immune system to attack the HPV16 proteins inside cervical and throat cancers. It has been tested with pembrolizumab in HPV16-positive head and neck cancer.
Overview
HB-200 is Hookipa Pharma's therapeutic vaccine for HPV16-positive cancers, made of two arenavirus vectors, HB-201 (based on lymphocytic choriomeningitis virus) and HB-202 (based on Pichinde virus), that express the same HPV16 E6/E7 fusion antigen. Alternating the two vectors avoids immunity against the vector itself and produced some of the largest antigen-specific T-cell expansions reported for a cancer vaccine.
It was given intravenously with pembrolizumab in phase 1/2 trials in recurrent or metastatic HPV16-positive head and neck squamous cell carcinoma, with response rates in the first-line setting above those expected from pembrolizumab alone. It is named on the recurrent or metastatic head and neck cancer page among the newer immunotherapy approaches for HPV-positive disease.
- Virus-like particle (L1 capsid)
- No viral DNA inside
Two replicating arenavirus vectors (lymphocytic choriomeningitis and Pichinde virus) each carrying a non-oncogenic HPV16 E6/E7 fusion protein, given alternately to raise very high frequencies of E6- and E7-specific killer T cells against HPV16-driven tumours.
