Tumor Immunology - Molecularly Defined Antigens and Clinical Applications (Hardcover)

Recent advances in basic immunology and molecular biology have resulted in new immunologically based therapeutic approaches being generated and implemented in cancer clinics. The discovery of new antigens, mechanisms of antigen presentation and interplay of cells involved in antitumor immunity have made the clinical control of some cancers using biological reagents more plausible than previously thought.
An invaluable source for clinicians, researchers and students, Tumor Immunology presents an introductory overview of the immunology of cancer including therapeutic approaches. Topics covered include the immune recognition of cancer-tumor antigens, humoral recognition of cancer and the immunotherapy of cancer.
