Cytotoxic effects of T cells induced by fusion protein 6B11-pulsed dendritic cells on ovarian carcinoma cells

6B11 anti-idiotype-antibody-pulsed DCs can induce T cell proliferation and T cell-mediated cytotoxicity against autologous ovarian tumor cells in vitro. The cytotoxic effects of T cells against autologous tumor cells are antigen-specific. These data implicate the rationale for the use of 6B11 anti-idiotype minibody as immunotherapy against ovarian carcinoma.
