ABSTRACT:
A method is provided for treatment of a mammalian patient having a tumor by administering to the patient allogenic donor lymphocytes that have been co-cultured in the presence of the patient-derived lymphocytes under conditions sufficient to alloactivate the donor lymphocytes. It is preferred that the donor lymphocytes be introduced intralesionally. This method is preferred for treatment of glioblastoma in humans.
