Abstract
Identification of neoantigens is a critical step in predicting response to checkpoint blockade therapy and design of personalized cancer vaccines. We have developed an in silico sequence analysis toolkit - pVACtools, to facilitate comprehensive neoantigen characterization. pVACtools supports a modular workflow consisting of tools for neoantigen prediction from somatic alterations (pVACseq and pVACfuse), prioritization and selection using a graphical web-based interface (pVACviz) and design of DNA vector-based vaccines (pVACvector) and synthetic long peptide vaccines. pVACtools is available at pvactools.org.
