Strategies of treatment involving therapeutic proteins, irnrnune immune cells, or cel lular protein targets are those of greatest potential for further reducing mortality from melanoma. Therapeutic proteins or cells may inhibit melanoma cell growth either by augmentation of immune cell function or by inhibition of angiogenesis. Cytokines and melanoma antigens may be used either in vivo as a vaccine to stimulate irnrnune immune cell cell function or ex vivo to stimulate or proliferate cells for infusion. Alternatively, alteration in melanoma cell growth can occur through inhibition of protein signal transduction pathways within melanoma cells or in the endothelial cells constituting ... Read more

The bibliography at the end of each chapter is exhaustive, sometimes citing over 300 references.The pharmacokinetics of cytokines are meticulously discussed and diagrammed. Tables summarizing the results of clinical trials to date are peppered throughout the book. The authors are careful not to draw conclusions that do not ... Read more
