“…Cells used for somatic therapies include hematopoietic cells used for bone marrow or peripheral blood progenitor cell transplantation (Collins et al, 1996;Koller et al, 1993;McAdams et al, 1996), and immune cells such as natural killer (NK) cells (Miller et al, 1994;Pierson et al, 1996), lymphokine-activated killer (LAK) cells (Melder et al, 1989;Muul et al, 1987), tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TIL) (Rosenberg et al, 1993;Whiteside and Parmiani, 1994), and antigen-specific cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTL) (Peshwa et al, 1996;Riddell et al, 1992a,b;Rivoltini et al, 1995;Salgaller et al, 1994;Stevens et al, 1995). These therapies involve the transfer of large numbers of autologous cultured cells to patients.…”
