---

A foreign peptide (GV1001) is engulfed by Antigen Presenting Cells (APCs). APCs are specialized in initiating immune responses against “foreign” material. Thus, the GV1001 uptaken by the APCs in the skin is processed intracellularly, and the APCs presents the peptide/HLA complexes to the T-cells. Then, the activation of T cells takes place in the lymph nodes. The activated T-cells will circulate in the body to search for tumor cells displaying peptide/HLA complexes identical to the complexes presented to them by the APCs. The cancer cells will be killed when they are detected by the activated T-cells
