IMMUNOTHERAPY OF CANCER THROUGH COMBINATION OF LOCAL AND SYSTEMIC IMMUNE STIMULATION

摘要

Provided herein are compositions and methods for immunotherapy of cancers, said methods combining systemic vaccination with a recombinant expression vector encoding a viral antigen and/or a cancer specific tumor antigen(s) to induce activated CD8 T-cells, with a local (e.g., intratumoral) immune stimulation using standard or modified application of a TLR agonist, to induce local inflammatory and innate immune responses which recruit T-cells to the tumor.
