IMMUNE REACTIVITY TO EXPRESSED ACTIVATED ONCOGENES FOR DIAGNOSIS AND TREATMENT OF Vicious CANCER.

摘要

Methods for the detection, monitoring and treatment of malignancies are disclosed. Detection of the proliferation of T cells in response to in vitro exposure to a protein expression product of an activated oncogene or cancer-related gene associated with a malignancy, or detection of immunocomplexes formed between the protein expression product and antibodies in body fluid, allows the diagnosis of the presence of a malignancy. The present invention also discloses methods and compositions for treating a malignancy.
