Study Overview
Brief Summary
The present clinical trial is a dose comparison of a multi-component active immunotherapy designed to stimulate an immune reaction to specific tumor associated antigens which are highly expressed on a large number of solid cancers.
Detailed Description
The majority of tumors are ignored by the immune system and it was thought for a long time that tumor antigens did not exist. However, recently a number of tumor antigens have been described. These antigens reside on cancer cells and can be recognized by specific T-cells which can ultimately attack and destroy the tumor.
