Allogeneic B7.1/HLA-A1 Transfected Tumor Cell Vaccine

**Semantic type:** Immunologic Factor|Pharmacologic Substance

**Definition:** An allogeneic whole cell vaccine, derived from irradiated allogenic tumor cells manipulated to express human B7.1 (CD80 antigen) and human leukocyte antigen (HLA) A1, with potential antitumor activity. Vaccination with allogeneic B7.1/HLA-A1 transfected tumor cell vaccine may elicit a cytotoxic T lymphocyte (CTL) response against similar host tumor cells, resulting in decreased tumor cell proliferation.
