Product Description
Originally developed as a cancer vaccine, GV1001 is a 16-amino-acid peptide comprising a sequence from the human enzyme telomerase reverse transcriptase (TERT). Most cancers highly express TERT, and immunization with GV1001 aims to activate the immune system to recognize and kill cancer cells. GV1001 was approved in Korea for immunotherapy of pancreatic cancer, but failed to show efficacy in two international pancreatic cancer trials (Sourced from: https://www.alzforum.org/therapeutics/gv1001)
