Preferred Label : Autologous Tumor Vaccine Plus Polysaccharide-derived Delta Inulin Adjuvant;
NCIt synonyms : Autologous Tumor Vaccine Plus Adjuvant Advax RadVax;
NCIt definition : An autologous cancer vaccine composed of tumor cell lysate extracted from a patient's
tumor and formulated with a delta inulin polysaccharide adjuvant, with potential immunostimulatory
and antineoplastic activities. Upon administration of the autologous tumor vaccine
plus polysaccharide-derived delta inulin adjuvant, the autologous tumor-associated
antigens (TAAs) may stimulate the immune system to mount a specific cytotoxic T-lymphocyte
(CTL) response against the patient's tumor cells, which results in tumor cell lysis.
The adjuvant may enhance the anti-tumor immune response.;
