Abstract
The varieties of treatments for patients with cancer have increased rapidly during the last few years. One of the newer ways to treat cancer patients is by immune therapy using tumor antigen pulsed dendritic cell-based vaccination. Phase I and II trials have shown effectiveness in generating an immunologic response and have in some cases shown clinical responses with tumour regression. This paper describes some of the possibilities and perspectives for dendritic cell vaccines for cancer patients.
