Tumor-Associated Antigens for Specific Immunotherapy of Prostate Cancer
Prostate cancer (PCa) is the most common noncutaneous cancer diagnosis and the second leading cause of cancer-related deaths among men in the United States. Effective treatment modalities for advanced metastatic PCa are limited. Immunotherapeutic strategies based on T cells and antibodies represent interesting approaches to prevent progression from localized to advanced PCa and to improve survi...
متن کاملHuman Tumor Antigens and Cancer Immunotherapy
With the recent developments of adoptive T cell therapies and the use of new monoclonal antibodies against the immune checkpoints, immunotherapy is at a turning point. Key players for the success of these therapies are the cytolytic T lymphocytes, which are a subset of T cells able to recognize and kill tumor cells. Here, I review the nature of the antigenic peptides recognized by these T cells...
متن کاملIntracellular tumor-associated antigens represent effective targets for passive immunotherapy.
Monoclonal antibody (mAb) therapy against tumor antigens expressed on the tumor surface is associated with clinical benefit. However, many tumor antigens are intracellular molecules that generally would not be considered suitable targets for mAb therapy. In this study, we provide evidence challenging this view through an investigation of the efficacy of mAb directed against NY-ESO-1, a widely e...
متن کاملImmunotherapy for Prostate Cancer: Lessons from Responses to Tumor-Associated Antigens
Prostate cancer (PCa) is the most common cancer in men and the second most common cause of cancer-related death in men. In recent years, novel therapeutic options for PCa have been developed and studied extensively in clinical trials. Sipuleucel-T is the first cell-based immunotherapeutic vaccine for treatment of cancer. This vaccine consists of autologous mononuclear cells stimulated and loade...
متن کاملCancer immunotherapy based on killing of Salmonella-infected tumor cells.
A major obstacle for the development of effective immunotherapy is the ability of tumors to escape the immune system. The possibility to kill tumor cells because they are recognized as infected rather than as malignant could help overcome immune escape mechanisms. Here we report a conceptually new approach of cancer immunotherapy based on in vivo infection of tumors and killing of infected tumo...
