Poor clinical response rates have been observed in the majority of the T cell-based immunotherapy clinical trials conducted to date. One reason might be the presence of abnormalities in HLA class I antigen presentation in malignant lesions. An increased frequency of HLA class I abnormalities has been observed in malignant lesions from patients treated with T cell-based immunotherapy and in lesions which have recurred in patients who had experienced clinical responses following T cell-based immunotherapy. These observations are compatible with the possibility that the outgrowth of a patient's tumor reflects immune selection of tumor cells which have acquired escape mechanisms from immune recognition.
