Abstract
Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) is the most aggressive brain tumor and median survival time with current therapies is only 14.6 mo. Although multiple immunotherapeutic strategies are being explored, efficacy remains poor. In order to improve immunotherapy for GBM, we propose to combine currently used endogenous with human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) specific antigens expressed on cancer cells.Entities:
