Telomerase mRNA-Transfected Dendritic Cells Stimulate Antigen-Specific CD8+ and CD4+ T Cell Responses in Patients with Metastatic Prostate Cancer
1 Mar 2005
Abstract excerpt
Telomerase reverse transcriptase (hTERT) represents an attractive target for cancer immunotherapy because hTERT is reactivated in most human tumors. A clinical trial was initiated in which hTERT mRNA-transfected dendritic cells (DC) were administered to 20 patients with metastatic prostate cancer. Nine of these subjects received DC transfected with mRNA encoding a chimeric lysosome-associated membrane protein-1...
