The early antitumor immune response is necessary for tumor growth: Re-visiting Prehn’s hypothesis in the human melanoma system
Early events responsible of tumor growth in patients with a normal immune system are poorly understood. Here, we discuss, in the context of human melanoma, the Prehn hypothesis according to which a weak antitumor immune response may be required for tumor growth before weakly or non-immunogenic tumo...
