The present invention relates to peptides, proteins, nucleic acids and cells for use in immunotherapeutic methods. In particular, the present invention relates to the immunotherapy of cancer. The present invention furthermore relates to tumor-associated T-cell peptide epitopes, alone or in combination with other tumor-associated peptides that can for example serve as active pharmaceutical ingredients of vaccine compositions that stimulate anti-tumor immune responses, or to stimulate T cells ex vivo and transfer into patients. Peptides bound to molecules of the major histocompatibility complex (MHC), or peptides as such, can also be targets of antibodies, soluble T-cell receptors, and other binding molecules.

Peptides and combination of peptides for use in immunotherapy against prostate cancer and other cancers

The present invention relates to a method for the absolute quantification of naturally processed HLA-restricted cancer peptides, i.e. the determination of the copy number of peptide(s) as presented per cell. The present invention can not only be used for the development of antibody therapies or peptide vaccines, but is also highly valuable for a molecularly defined immuno-monitoring, and useful in the processes of identifying of new peptide antigens for immunotherapeutic strategies, such as respective vaccines, antibody-based therapies or adoptive T-cell transfer approaches in cancer, infectious and/or autoimmune diseases.
