AbstractCurrent cell-based immunotherapeutic strategies attempt to produce and maintain an immune response against glioma cells by artificially stimulating the immune system using passive and/or active approaches. Cellular immunotherapy is taken to mean the administration of live immune cells that either have immune effector capabilities themselves (passive immunotherapy) or engender a downstream antitumor response (active immunotherapy). Passive cellular immunotherapy most often takes the form of the adoptive transfer of a range of cell types, whereby antitumor immune cells from a patient (or allogeneic donor) are created, activated, and/or expanded ex vivo and subsequently administered back to the patient to directly attack the neoplasm. Active cellular immunotherapy approaches for the treatment of malignant gliomas have most often taken the form of dendritic cell (DC)-based vaccines.© 2018 S. Karger AG, Basel.
