1. Vaccine Therapy of Colorectal Cancer Patients with Tumor Associated Antigens
Abstract : In this thesis, two different vaccines were evaluated as adjuvant therapy for patients with colorectal cancer. The ability of the two candidate vaccines to generate antigen-specific cellular and humoral responses, respectively, was studied. READ MORE

2. Some New Methods in Sialic Acid Chemistry
Abstract : Gangliosides (G) are sialic acid-containing cell surface glycosphingolipids capable of forming lactones, i.e. inner esters. Some gangliosides are tumor-associated antigens, and they may serve as immunogens in their lactone form, where the latter is comparatively more abundant on the surface of malignant cells. READ MORE

3. MHC class I restricted and antigen-specific TCRs against viral and tumor-associated antigens (TAAs) for future biological therapy
Abstract : Adoptive cellular immunotherapy (ACT) refers to the process of transferring immune cells (autologous or allogeneic) directly to the host as a treatment for cancer or infectious diseases. The effector cells could be antigen-specific, like T cells, or non-specific, such as NK cells or lymphokine-activated killer (LAK) cells. READ MORE

4. In vitro studies of natural and tumor-associated immunity in patients with transitional cell carcinoma of the urinary bladder
Abstract : Peripheral blood lymphocytes (PBL) from patients with transitional cell carcinoma of the urinary bladder (TCC-bladder) were studied using a SlCr-release assay for their in vitro cytotoxicity against a panel of allogeneic tissue culture cell lines of TCC-bladder and other origins. Control PBL were obtained from four different groups of donors. READ MORE
