摘要:
Disclosed are compositions containing isolated monocyte-derived mature dendritic cells loaded with OFA/iLRP, or a fragment thereof that selectively stimulates T cytotoxic lymphocytes, and a carrier, vaccine compositions containing effective dosage amounts of the dendritic cells, methods of making the vaccines, and methods of cancer treatment or therapy that entail administration of the vaccines to cancer patients.
摘要:
The present invention provides a method of determining the success of a cancer therapy in an individual, comprising the step of measuring the frequency of occurence of an oncofetal antigen-specific subclasses in the individual's peripheral blood. Also provided is a method of determining whether protective immunity against a tumor will develop in an individual, comprising the step of measuring the frequency of oncofetal antigen-specific T cells, tumor cells and macrophages at the site of the tumor which secrete IL-10. Additionally, a method of determining whether an individual having a tumor will go into remission or remain in remission, comprising the step of measuring the frequency of oncofetal antigen-specific Th1 cells, Tc cells and Ts cells, IL-10 and interferon-&ggr; secreting T cells in the peripheral blood.
摘要:
Disclosed are fragments of oncofetal antigen, otherwise known as immature laminin receptor protein that specifically stimulate one T cell subclass. The fragments may be formulated into compositions for potentiating T cell-mediated responses in mammalian cancer patients. They also have therapeutic uses in vitro.
