An authoritative panel of researchers and clinicians critically reviews
the entire field to provide a comprehensive guide to modern brain tumor
immunotherapy and thereby enhance future research in this area. The
contributors detail many of the key laboratory experiments and clinical
protocols that are currently being investigated, integrate the available
information from previous and ongoing research, and help define the
current status of the field. Topics range from adoptive cellular and
antibody-mediated immunotherapy of brain tumors to tumor vaccines and
related strategies, and include many vanguard experimental strategies
and immunological techniques for studying brain tumor immunotherapy.
Cutting-edge and comprehensive, Brain Tumor Immunotherapy brings
together all the important recent advances in our understanding of
central nervous system tumor immunology and illustrates in powerful
detail the many new applications now harnessing the immune response for
brain tumor therapeutics.
