Cyclin B1 identified as a new tumor antigen and candidate for the development of a cancer vaccine

According to Dr. Finn, these findings are important because very few tumor-specific antigens have been identified in epithelial tumors, which account for over 83 percent of all human tumors. There is a need to identify and isolate the antigens for all types of tumors and use them to develop vaccines that can stimulate an immune response to attack existing cancer cells, said Dr. Finn.
