High frequency of antitumor T cells in the blood of melanoma patients before and after vaccination with tumor antigens

High frequency of antitumor T cells in the blood of melanoma patients before and after vaccination with tumor antigens

After vaccination of melanoma patients with MAGE antigens, we observed that even in the few patients showing tumor regression, the frequency of anti-vaccine T cells in the blood was often either undetectable or <10−5 of CD8 T cells.
