Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) patients treated with available therapies achieve remission in approximately 60% of cases, but the long-term event-free survival is less than 30%. Use of immunotherapy during remission is a potential approach to increase survival. We propose to develop cell vaccines by genetic modification of AML cells with CD80, an essential T cell costimulator that is lacking in the majority of AML cases, and GM-CSF, to induce proliferation and activation of professional antigenpresenting cells. Here, we evaluated third generation selfinactivating (
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
