Academic Article
Overview
abstract
Novel, potent tumor-associated antigens are needed to improve the efficacy of immunotherapy for myeloma. We demonstrated that active vaccination using the DKK1-DNA vaccine in the myeloma mouse model protected mice from developing myeloma and effectively treated established myeloma. Therefore, DKK1 could be developed as a novel vaccine for myeloma immunotherapy.
