The object of the present invention is to provide a detecting agent for specifically detecting a tumor cell, a tumor antigen peptide-specifically presented on a tumor cell, a pharmaceutical composition useful for the prevention and/or treatment of cancer, the pharmaceutical composition containing the tumor antigen peptide as an active ingredient, etc. The above object has been achieved by a tumor antigen peptide or its motif-substituted product, the tumor antigen peptide comprising 8 to 14 consecutive amino acids in an amino acid sequence of a protein encoded by a gene selected from the group consisting of PVT1, SUV39H2, ZNF724P, SNRNP40, and DYRK4, the tumor antigen peptide having an HLA binding ability. |
