(CA2943334) Claims What is claimed is: 1. An immunogenic glycopeptide, wherein the immunogenic glycopeptide has the structure of: wherein the PADRE is a pan-DR epitope and has at least 10 consecutive amino acid residues that is at least 80% identical to the amino acid sequence of AKXVAAWTLKAAA (SEQ ID No. 1), where X is a cyclohexylalanine residue; and wherein P is Globo H, GD2, GM2, SSEA 4, Lewis, LewisY or STn. 2. The immunogenic glycopeptide of claim 1, wherein the amino acid sequence of the PADRE is identical to the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID No. 1. 3. The immunogenic glycopeptide of claim 1, wherein P is Globo H, GM2, SSEA 4 or Lewis Y. 4. The immunogenic glycopeptide of claim 1, wherein the last residue (K) is omitted. 5. The immunogenic glycopeptide of claim 1, wherein the the first residue (A) or the first two residues (A and K) are omitted. 6. A pharmaceutical composition, comprising a therapeutically effective amount of one or more immunogenic glycopeptide of Claim 1 and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier or adjuvant. 7. The pharmaceutical composition of Claim 6, wherein the adjuvant is QS21 or aluminum hydroxide. 8. The pharmaceutical composition of Claim 6, wherein the composition is a vaccine. 9. The pharmaceutical composition of Claim 8, wherein the vaccine is a polyvalent vaccine comprising one or more Globo H-, GM2-, Lewis Y, or SSEA4-PADRE glycopeptide as defined in Claim 1. 10. The pharmaceutical composition of Claim 9, wherein the polyvalent vaccine comprises Globo H-, GM2- and Lewis Y-PADRE glycopeptides or SSEA4-, GM2- and Lewis Y-PADRE glycopeptides. 11. A method for preventing and/or treating a cancer, comprises administering an effective amount of one or more immunogenic glycopeptide of Claim 1 to a subject. 12. A method for preventing and/or treating a cancer, comprises administering an effective amount of the pharmaceutical composition of Claim 6 to a subject. 13. A method for preventing and/or treating a cancer, comprises administering an effective amount of the pharmaceutical composition of Claim 9 to a subject. 14. A method for preventing and/or treating a cancer, comprises administering an effective amount of the pharmaceutical composition of Claim 10 to a subject. 15. The method of any of Claims 11 to 14, wherein the cancer is a tumorassociated carbohydrate-expressing cancer. 16. The method of Claim 15, wherein the cancer is breast cancer, ovarian cancer, pancreatic cancer, prostate cancer, colorectal cancer or lung cancer.
