Anaphylaxis caused by repetitive doses of a GITR agonist monoclonal antibody in mice

TL;DR: A previously undescribed lethal side effect of repetitive doses of an agonist immunomodulatory antibody is demonstrated as well as insight into the mechanism of toxicity, which may offer a means of preventing adverse effects in future clinical trials using anti-GITR or other agonist antibodies as immunotherapies.
Journal ArticleDOI

Immunologic responses to xenogeneic tyrosinase DNA vaccine administered by electroporation in patients with malignant melanoma

TL;DR: A regimen of five immunizations with pINGmuTyr administered by EP was found to be safe and resulted in Tyr-reactive immune responses in six of 15 patients at 1.5 mg dose cohort, and one patient subsequently received ipilimumab and developed an enhanced Tyr- reactive response with polyfunctional cytokine profile.
Journal ArticleDOI

The role of the immune system in early epithelial carcinogenesis: B-ware the double-edged sword

TL;DR: B cells are implicated as key players in the regulation of chronic inflammation that promotes early events in epithelial carcinogenesis, linking antibodies of the adaptive immune system to innate immune responses that drive epithelium carcinogenesis.
