The use of HLA class I tetramers to design a vaccination strategy for melanoma patients.
Progress in human tumor immunology has recently been accelerated by new assays for antigen-specific cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTLs). We have used tetrameric MHC class I complexes (tetramers) to study melanoma-specific CTLs both in vivo and in vitro, and have utilized the results to optimize vaccinati...
