Ovarian Tumor Antigen-activated Autologous Dendritic Cell Vaccine

Preferred Label : Ovarian Tumor Antigen-activated Autologous Dendritic Cell Vaccine;

NCIt synonyms : DCVAC/OvCa;

NCIt definition : A dendritic cell (DC)-based cancer vaccine composed of autologous dendritic cells (DCs) activated with an ovarian tumor cell lysate containing tumor-associated antigens (TAAs) with potential immunostimulatory and antineoplastic activities. Upon administration, the ovarian tumor antigen-activated autologous DC vaccine may stimulate an anti-tumoral cytotoxic T-lymphocyte (CTL) response against ovarian cancer cells expressing ovarian tumor cell-specific antigens, which may result in ovarian tumor cell lysis.;
