A multivalent bcr-abl fusion peptide vaccination trial in patients with chronic myeloid leukemia
23 Sept 2003
Abstract excerpt
A tumor-specific, bcr-abl-derived fusion peptide vaccine can be safely administered to patients with chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML) and can elicit a bcr-abl peptide-specific T-cell immune response.

In 14 of 14 patients,...
