Ad5F35-LMP1/LMP2-Transduced Autologous Dendritic Cells

Preferred Label : Ad5F35-LMP1/LMP2-Transduced Autologous Dendritic Cells;

NCIt synonyms : Ad5F35-LMP1 LMP2-Transduced Autologous Dendritic Cells;

NCIt definition : Autologous dendritic cells (DCs) transduced with the replication-deficient adenoviral vector Ad5F53 encoding the Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) transmembrane latent membrane proteins 1 and 2 (LMP1/LMP2) with potential immunostimulatory activity. Vaccination with Ad5F35-LMP1/LMP2-transduced autologous dendritic cells may stimulate a specific cytotoxic T-lymphocyte (CTL) response against LMP1- and LMP2-expressing tumor positive cells, resulting in tumor cell lysis and inhibition of tumor cell proliferation. LMP1 and LMP2 are expressed in various malignancies including nasopharyngeal cancer and EBV-positive Hodgkins disease.;
