A novel peptide which is useful as a remedy and/or preventive for cancer and its medicinal use are disclosed. Such a peptide has a contiguous amino acid sequence from a specific region, i.e., the region of aa 10-19, aa 49-61, aa 74- 83, aa 96-117, aa 152-161, aa 177-185, aa 202-211, aa 246-261 or aa 326-354 of YKL-40 antigen expressed on the surface of a brain tumor cell, and has an immunity induction activity. Such a peptide is useful for treating and/or preventing cancer by being administered to a living organism, and is also useful for inducing a T cell exhibiting a cytotoxic activity against a cancer cell by in vitro stimulation of the T cell.

La présente invention décrit un nouveau peptide qui peut être employé en tant que traitement prophylactique et/ou thérapeutique contre le cancer, ainsi que les applications thérapeutiques dudit peptide. Un tel peptide présente une séquence d~acides aminés contiguë à une région spécifique, plus précisément la région des aa 10-19, des aa 49-61, des aa 74-83, des aa 96-117, des aa 152-161, des aa 177-185, des aa 202-211, des aa 246-261 ou des aa 326-354 de l~antigène YKL-40 exprimé à la surface d~une cellule tumorale du cerveau, et possède une activité d~induction immunitaire. Un tel peptide peut être employé dans le traitement prophylactique et/ou thérapeutique de cancers par administration à un organisme vivant, et peut également être employé pour induire des cellules T présentant une activité cytotoxique vis-à-vis d'une cellule cancéreuse par stimulation in vitro des cellules T.
