The Antitumor Efficacy of IL2/IL21-Cultured Polyfunctional Neu-Specific T Cells Is TNFα/IL17 Dependent

Abstract

Purpose: Infusion of HER2-specific T cells, derived from vaccine-primed patients and expanded with IL2/IL12, has induced tumor regression in a minority of patients with metastatic treatment-refractory HER2+ breast cancer. We questioned whether alteration of cytokine growth factors used to culture vaccine–primed T cells could improve antitumor activity.
