摘要

The present invention relates to: a composition for treating cervical cancer, containing, as an active ingredient, HPV type 18 E7 peptide; or a composition for diagnosis, using the same. When the peptide of the present invention is used as a vaccine for treating cervical cancer, the peptide can bind to four types of HLA classes (HLA-A*0201, A*2402, A*1101, and A*3303) in duplicate, and thus it is expected that the peptide could be greatly utilized in the effective cervical cancer antibody production and treatment.
