Regression of established B16F10 melanoma with a recombinant Listeria monocytogenes vaccine.
Cancer research 1999;
59(
20):.
We have previously shown that Listeria monocytogenes, a gram-positive, facultative intracellular bacterium, is a potent vector for targeting tumor-specific antigens to the immune system. In the present study, we extend these studies to the highly tumorigenic mouse melanoma B16F10, transduced with a model tumor antigen. We are able to induce the regression of primary tumors and established lung metastases by parenteral immunization with a L. monocytogenes recombinant that expresses the same antigen. Adjunctive therapy with granulocyte macrophage colony-stimulating factor or a vaccinia-based vaccine does not result in an improved cure rate over the L. monocytogenes vaccine alone. Tumor regression is accompanied by the expression of inflammatory cytokines in the tumor.
