The adoptive transfer of tumor-specific cytotoxic T cells (CTL) offers a promising perspective in cancer immunotherapy. However, the ex vivo-generated T lymphocytes are mostly IL-2-dependent. Here we explored the possibility of circumventing the requirement for IL-2, known for severe side effects in
