Lentivirus-induced ‘Smart’ dendritic cells: Pharmacodynamics and GMP-compliant production for immunotherapy against TRP2-positive melanoma
12 May 2015
Abstract excerpt
Monocyte-derived conventional dendritic cells (ConvDCs) loaded with melanoma antigens showed modest responses in clinical trials. Efficacy studies were hampered by difficulties in ConvDC manufacturing and low potency. Overcoming these issues, we demonstrated higher potency of lentiviral vector (LV)-programmed DCs. Monocytes were directly induced to self-differentiate into DCs (SmartDC-TRP2) upon transduction with...
