Abstract

Meeting abstracts Adoptive transfer of ex vivo expanded neu specific polyfunctional T-cells secreting TNF-alpha (α), IFN-gamma (γ), and IL-17 (Th1/Th17) cells into tumor bearing mice can result in complete resolution of disease as compared to the use of neu specific Th1 (Lai et al 2009). Murine

Highlights

  • Adoptive transfer of ex vivo expanded neu specific polyfunctional T-cells secreting TNF-alpha (a), IFNgamma (g), and IL-17 (Th1/Th17) cells into tumor bearing mice can result in complete resolution of disease as compared to the use of neu specific Th1 (Lai et al 2009)

  • Murine antigen specific Th1/Th17 cells could be readily expanded with IL-2 and IL-21 in culture, the use of these cytokines resulted in successful expansion of human tumor antigen specific T-cells in only a minority of patients

  • PBMC, derived from the aphaeresis of patients previously immunized with a HER2 vaccine, were stimulated with HER2 peptides in the presence of different cytokines to polarize Th17 cells, and cultured with different T-cell growth factors on Day4/8, and subsequently expanded with CD3/CD28 beads on Day 12 and IL-2 for 12 days
