idiotype-pulsed autologous dendritic cell vaccine APC8020
A cell-based cancer vaccine composed of autologous dendritic cells (DCs) pulsed with tumor-derived clonal immunoglobulin (Ig) with potential immunostimulatory and antineoplastic activities. Upon administration, idiotype-pulsed autologous dendritic cell vaccine APC8020, containing idiotype (Id) protein structures that can be recognized by antibodies and by CD41 T lymphocytes and CD81 T lymphocytes, may stimulate antitumoral cytotoxic T lymphocyte (CTL) and antibody responses against Id-expressing tumor cells.
The Id represents the unique antigenic determinants in the variable regions of the clonal Ig. Check for active clinical trials or closed clinical trials using this agent. (NCI Thesaurus)
