Allogeneic vaccianation for renal cell carcinoma: development and monitoring.
Bone Marrow Transplant. 25, 2, 83-87 (2000)
An allogeneic tumor cell vaccine should display a natu- ral immunogenicity that allows the stimulation of tumor-reactive effector cells in patients. Furthermore, the vaccine should express antigens that are shared by many tumors to which patients are not tolerant. A var- iety of tumor peptides should be presented by different HLA-molecules due to limited MHC matching with recipients and last but not least, the vaccine should have a strong growth potential in vitro to allow adequate amounts of vaccine to be generated for long-term usage. In vitro and in situ studies with the renal cell carcinoma cell line RCC-26 demonstrate: (1) RCC-26 can induce complex allospecific responses through direct priming; (2) RCC-26 can not only reactivate cytotoxic T lympho- cytes (CTL) of a memory phenotype but they also can induce de novo tumor-antigen associated responses in normal donors; (3) these cells present epitopes restric- ted by several MHC molecules, allowing the vaccination of patients matched for different HLA alleles; and (4) they stimulate HLA-A*0201-restricted T cells bear- ing characteristic T cell receptors (TCR). Thus, in addition to using limiting dilution killer and ELISPOT assays, molecular tracking of a tumor-specific TCR can be used to judge the development of antitumor reac- tivity and vaccine efficiency.
