ABSTRACT:
The invention concerns a method for identifying peptide compounds derived from hsp70, having at least one mutation relative to the hsp70 natural sequence, said compounds bringing about a response T specific of tumours, and the peptide compounds obtainable by said method. The invention also concerns the use of said peptide compounds for performing repeated immunization in a subject so as to interrupt immune tolerance for the corresponding natural (non-mutated) peptide. Said peptide compounds are useful for preparing a medicine designed in particular for treating cancer optionally in combination with any agent provoking tumour cell stress.
