Abstract
Brachyury protein can be used to induce Brachyury-specific CD4+ T cells in vivo and ex vivo. It is also disclosed that Brachyury protein can be used to stimulate the production of both Brachyury-specific CD4+ T cells and Brachyury-specific CD8+ T cells in a subject, such as a subject with cancer. In some embodiments, the methods include the administration of a Brachyury protein. In additional embodiments, the methods include the administration of a nucleic acid encoding the Brachyury protein, such as in a non-pox non-yeast vector. In further embodiments, the method include the administration of host cells expressing the Brachyury protein.
