ABSTRACT:
Cellular compositions and methods for inducing an immune response to tumor cells are described. The cellular compositions include a tumor antigen and cells that have been modified to express a cytokine and one or more of a tumor antigen, anti-CTLA4 antibody and an additional cytokine. The cellular compositions find utility in methods for treating cancer.
