Immunization with a synthetic HIV-1 p17 peptide analog (HGP-30; aa 85-115 of HIV p17), coupled to a carrier protein (KLH, keyhole limpet hemocyanin) given with alum as the adjuvant induces antibodies which cross-react with both HGP-30 and HIV p17 and clones of cytotoxic and helper T-cells which recognize HGP-30 and HIV p17. Proliferation of lymphocytes in response to HGP-30 has been observed in mice, in HIV-infected individuals and in healthy HIV-seronegative volunteers vaccinated with the p17-based synthetic peptide construct. Cytotoxic T-cell responses against EBV transformed, recombinant p17 pulsed targets were observed using antigen-expanded PBLs from HGP-30-KLH immunized individuals. These results are consistent with predictions that the HGP-30 domain of HIV p17 contains both T- and B-cell epitopes that are recognized by animals and humans. In preclinical toxicology studies in animals and in initial clinical trials in humans the synthetic peptide construct (HGP-30-KLH/alum) has been shown to be safe. This paper summarizes the preclinical immunogenicity and safety data for HGP-30-KLH and presents the initial results from the first Phase 1 clinical trial.
