Preface
Over the last decade, the advances in cellular and molecular immunology have
been tremendous. Our continuously improving understanding of the immune
system and the appreciation of the mechanisms by which tumors and viral or
bacterial infections are controlled have led to promising new treatment strate-
gies. Adoptive transfer of tailored antigen-specific immune cells and/or opti-
mally designed immunological effector molecules is an elegant and promising
approach to the establishment or restoration of protective immune responses. At
this point, it appears timely to publish the present volume on Adoptive Immuno-
therapy for the Methods in Molecular Medicine™ series.
Experts from various fields contributed to this comprehensive collection of
state-of-the-art methods for adoptive immunotherapy. Recent technical advances
and specific methods from the areas of dendritic cell therapy, generation of anti-
gen-specific cytotoxic T cells, and antitumor treatment with specific antibodies
have been compiled. Particular emphasis is placed on preclinical and clinical
applications. These chapters are complemented by articles describing the
progress of selected approaches in clinical trials. Leading experts in the field
provide theoretical overviews and point out future directions for the improve-
ment of adoptive immunotherapy. Additional chapters on the molecular defini-
tion of target antigens, mathematical modeling approaches to immunotherapy,
and the utilization of regulatory T cells complete the volume. We were fortunate
to receive support from leading scientists from all over the world who contrib-
uted their most recent experimental protocols and shared their practical advice.
Special emphasis was placed on the “Notes” section to include helpful trouble-
shooting advice for daily work at the lab bench, which is a unique feature of the
Methods in Molecular Medicine™ series. It is our hope that we have achieved
our main objective to provide helpful information for scientists just entering the
field of adoptive immunotherapy. Furthermore, this volume attempts to encour-
age more experienced researchers to try novel experimental approaches.
We are indebted to all our authors for generously making their time avail-
able in contributing to this volume and for the excellent quality of their work.
Marcel Kremer’s help in the final editing process is greatly appreciated.
Finally, we want to thank the Series Editor, John Walker, and the staff of
Humana Press for their support and continuous encouragement.
