Abstract excerpt
Nonsmall cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is the major cause of lung cancer-related deaths in the United States. We are developing cell-based vaccines as a new approach for the treatment of NSCLC. NSCLC is broadly divided into 3 histologic subtypes: adenocarcinoma, squamous cell carcinoma and large cell carcinoma. Since these subtypes are derived from the same progenitor cells, we hypothesized that they share common...
