Preferred Label : Autologous Sarcoma Lysate-pulsed Dendritic Cell Vaccine;
NCIt definition : A cell-based cancer vaccine composed of autologous dendritic cells (DCs) pulsed with
lysates from sarcoma cells with potential immunostimulatory and antineoplastic activities.
Upon administration, the autologous sarcoma lysate-pulsed dendritic cell vaccine exposes
the immune system to an undefined amount of sarcoma-type tumor associated antigens
(TAA), which may result in the induction of both specific anti-tumoral cytotoxic T
lymphocytes (CTL) and antibody-dependent responses against the sarcoma TAA-expressing
cells, resulting in sarcoma cell lysis.;
