Prophylactic infusion of cytomegalovirus-specific cytotoxic T lymphocytes stimulated with Ad5f35pp65 gene-modified dendritic cells after allogeneic hemopoietic stem cell transplantation

Abstract excerpt

Cytomegalovirus (CMV) and its therapy continue to contribute to morbidity and mortality in hemopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). Many studies have demonstrated the feasibility of in vitro generation of CMV-specific T cells for adoptive immunotherapy of CMV. Few clinical trials have been performed showing the safety and efficacy of this approach in vivo. In this study, donor-derived, CMV-specific T cells...
