## Abstract Lymphocytes prepared from the blood, tumour‐draining lymph node and tumour were tested for immune reactivity with freshly isolated autologous tumour cells from biopsies. Reactivity was assessed by the autologous tumour stimulation assay and by lymphocytotoxicity. Activity was found in 6
Mononuclear cell infiltration is frequently seen within human solid tumors. Effector cells within the tumor site usually fail to exhibit cytotoxic or natural killer activity when freshly isolated; however, they develop potent and sometimes specific cytotoxicity after expansion in ILL Thus, local tum
