DCVax platform pairs patient dendritic cells with tumor antigens for blood cancers
Overview
Bosch argues that DCVax, which pairs a patient's tumor lysate with the patient's own dendritic cells, can serve as a platform for blood cancers including leukemias, lymphomas and myeloma.
The report does not describe a trial or clinical results for these cancers.
In human-cell experiments, Watchmaker and colleagues found that the type of dendritic cell shaped CD8 T cells' granzyme B expression, killing activity and tissue-homing receptors, not only how many of the T cells expanded.
