A New Hope in Immunotherapy for Malignant Gliomas: Adoptive T Cell Transfer Therapy by Dong-Sup Chung, Hye-Jin Shin, Yong-Kil Hong

“…But, antitumor activities of endogenously activated T cells induced by immunotherapy such as vaccination are not sufficient to control tumors because tumor-specific antigens may be self-antigens and tumors have immune evasion mechanisms to avoid immune surveillance system of host. Although recent clinical results from vaccine strategy for malignant gliomas are encouraging, these trials have some limitations, particularly their failure to expand tumor antigen-specific T cells reproducibly and effectively. …”
