Noteworthy, vaccination of mice with mEGFR-ECD/VSSP stimulated a potent antimetastatic effect in the EGFR+ Lewis lung carcinoma model, while reproduction-associated side effects were absent.
A novel fusion recombinant peptide base vaccine consisting of L2 domain of murine extra-cellular domain-EGFR and EGFR mimotope (EM-L2) was constructed and its prophylactic and therapeutic effects in a Lewis lung carcinoma mouse (C57/BL6) model evaluated.
In Lewis lung carcinoma (LLC) and CMT167 models, dual inhibition of COX-2 and EGFR by melafolone promoted survival, tumor growth inhibition, and vascular normalization, and ameliorated CD8<sup>+</sup> T-cell suppression, accompanied by the downregulation of transforming growth factor-<i>β</i> (TGF-<i>β</i>), vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), and PD-L1 in the tumor cells.
