The Dr Pepper Museum website specifically denies this:

> 3. What's in Dr Pepper? Is Prune Juice in Dr Pepper?
> We don't know what is in Dr Pepper. The Company holds the formula in a vault. The Company will, however, tell us what is NOT in Dr Pepper. Prune juice is not and never has been in Dr Pepper. That is an old story that has apparently been in circulation since the 1930s, when some delivery man of a competitive drink may have said, "You wouldn't want to drink a soda that tastes like it has prune juice in it, would you?"

To me it seems pretty close to Cherry Coke...although not identical.
