摘要: Our knowledge of the immune system and how it interacts with tumor cells continues to grow. With each advance in basic science comes a new opportunity develop an effective treatment strategy. Many such opportunities have arisen past few decades this chapter has attempted describe these advances been combined variety undefined cellular antigen preparations attempt cancer vaccines. None strategies described sufficiently become part standard therapy. However, approaches tested generally well-tolerated by patients advanced evidence immunologic activity examples impressive clinical wide malignancies, suggests that can be building blocks upon which are added treatments developed.
