The well-characterized P815 tumor model was used to optimize anti-tumor immunization approaches in mice. Tumor peptides derived from antigens P198 or P1A were targeted to antigen-presenting cells (APC) by ex vivo pulsing. Initial experiments with irradiated pulsed splenic dendritic cells (sDC) injec
