It is covered with a very thin connective tissue capsule which extends inward as septa, partitioning the gland into lobules (Cuschieri, 2002). Pancreatic cancer is the eighth most common malignancy and the fifth leading cause of the adult cancer death in the United States. Only 1-4% of all patients diagnosed with pancreatic cancer can expect to survive 5 years. In the year 2000 about 28,300 new cases of adenocarcinoma of the pancreas were diagnosed in the United States, and about 28,200 patients died of this aggressive malignancy (Grau et al., 2004).

    Emerging therapeutic vaccines:Emerging therapeutic vaccines 19/4/07 10:31 Page 49 Immunotherapy emerging therapeutic vaccines The excitement over the past 30 years for immunotherapy of cancer and other diseases has not led to the expected clinical successes. Over-enthusiasts predicted a cure for cancer with the initial development of monoclonal antibody technology, and later the ‘magic bullets’ or toxin-labelled antibodies. Identification of proteins restricted to, or at least overexpressed in tumours has also led to disappointing clinical results. The main barriers have been a lack of immunological understanding of the processes at work, eg immune tolerance. Advances in our understanding of how to induce strong immune responses and how to manipulate the immune system to avoid immunological tolerance have opened the way for emerging therapeutic vaccinations in the treatment of not only cancer, but other diseases as well. This review will focus on immunotherapy for cancer and chronic human diseases characterised by the altered expression of self-proteins. mmunological tolerance regulates the immune sys- phocytes recognise short peptides (8-15 mers), present- By Marc Hertz, tem such that foreign pathogens are quickly ed in the context of the major histocompatibility com- Søren Mouritsen Iattacked, while immune responses directed against plex (MHC) on antigen presenting cells, and become and Anand Gautam the body are rare.
