ABSTRACT:
The invention relates to compositions, kits, and methods for alleviating cancer (i.e., a tumor) in a human patient. The therapeutic modality effected by the invention involves inducing a type 1 inflammatory response in the tumor tissue, whereby the tumor tissue is diminished or destroyed and the patient develops immune memory that inhibits or prevents recurrence of the tumor.
