abstract |
This invention provides a method for maximizing the immune response to mutated tumor specific proteins, either by means of stimulation of dendritic cells or T cells in vitro followed by administration of these cells to a patient, or by means of administration of a neoantigen vaccine in which de novo peptides, or their encoding nucleic acids, have been designed to ensure an appropriate level of binding affinity to a particular cancer patient's WIC alleles. This invention further provides for modulating the immune response in an immunopathology other than cancer. |
