We have previously shown that autologous T cells recognize leukaemic cells from patients with chronic lymphocytic leukaemia (B-CLL) in an MHC class I- and/or II-restricted manner. A candidate recognition structure might be the tumour cell-derived Ig VH complementarity-determining region (CDR)3. Three patients with B-CLL were analysed for the presence of autologous T cells recognizing the tumour-specific VH-CDR3...
