✦ Synopsis


The key issue in tumor immunology is to identify antigens as target structures for a cancer-selective immunological attack in the tumor-bearing host, resulting in tumor rejection. There is a growing detailed understanding of structural and regulatory gene alterations giving rise to candidate rejection antigens and peptides in tumor cells. As well as reviewing the development of new adjuvant and recombinant vector systems, new approaches are suggested for the construction of cancer vaccines.

Humoral immune responses against the ''Cancer-Testis'' (CT) antigen NY-ESO-1 are frequently observed in patients with NY-ESO-1 expressing tumors. This is in contrast to other known tumor antigens (TA) defined by antibody or cytotoxic T cell (CTL) reactivity, i.e., MAGE-1, MAGE-3, SSX2, Melan A, and

We previously exploited the frequent overexpression of folate receptors on cancer cells to decorate malignant cell surfaces selectively with folate-hapten conjugates. In antihapten-immunized hosts, this targeted localization of foreign haptens to tumor cells led to rapid accumulation of autologous a

## Abstract Conjugation of antigens to a carrier protein like keyhole limpet hemocyanin (KLH) has proven effective in clinical trials for inducing antibodies against selected tumor antigens. The impact of this approach on T‐cell immunity has not been previously tested. We utilized peripheral blood
