Abstract excerpt
We recently showed that the infusion of tumor infiltrating lymphocytes specific for the MELOE-1 antigen was associated with a prolonged relapse-free survival for HLA-A2(+) melanoma patients who received tumor infiltrating lymphocytes therapy. Here, we characterized the MELOE-1/A2-specific T-cell repertoire in healthy donors and melanoma patients to further support an immunotherapy targeting this epitope. Using...
