The invention relates to administration of an anti-CTLA-4 antibody, particularly human antibodies to human CTLA-4, such as those having amino acid sequences of antibodies 3.1.1, 4.1.1, 4.8.1, 4.10.2, 4.13.1, 4.14.3, 6.1.1, 11.2.1, 11.6.1, 11.7.1, 12.3.1.1, 12.9.1.1, and MDX-010, in combination with an immunostimulatory nucleotide, i.e, CpG ODN PF3512676, for treatment of cancer. The invention relates to administering a combination of an anti-CTLA-4 antibody and CpG ODN PF3512676 as neoadjuvant, adjuvant, first-line, second-line, and third-line therapy of cancer, whether localized or metastasized, and at any point(s) along the disease continuum (e.g, at any stage of the cancer). |
