Abstract excerpt
In this study, we investigated the cytolytic activity of peripheral blood T-cells (PBT) obtained from nine patients with primary lung cancer treated by surgical adjuvant adoptive immunotherapy (AIT) with lymphokine-activated killer cells and low-dose recombinant interleukin 2 at the time of rebound lymphocytosis (24-48 h after AIT). In eight of nine patients, nonspecific cytotoxicity of peripheral blood...
