Table of Contents:
  • Some scientific and organizational challenges in cancer immunology
  • The human cancer antigen mesothelin is more efficiently presented to the mouse immune system when targeted to the DEC-205/CD205 receptor on dendritic cells
  • Brain tumor immunotherapy with type-1 polarizing strategies
  • Harnessing human dendritic cell subsets to design novel vaccines
  • Dendritic cell-based vaccines for pancreatic cancer and melanoma
  • Combining conventional therapies with intratumoral injection of autologous dendritic cells and activated T cells to treat patients with advanced cancers
  • Witch hunt against tumor cells enhanced by dendritic cells
  • Harnessing CD1D-restricted t cells toward antitumor immunity in humans
  • Immunity against cyclin B1 tumor antigen delays development of spontaneous cyclin B1-positive tumors in p53-/- mice
  • Targets of protective tumor immunity
  • Identification of immunologic biomarkers associated with clinical response after immune-based therapy for cancer
  • Harnessing dendritic cells to generate cancer vaccines
  • Clinical use of anti-CD25 antibody daclizumab to enhance immune responses to tumor antigen vaccination by targeting regulatory T cells
