The article presents papers selected from presentations at the 4th Progress in Vaccincation Against Cancer (PIVAC) conference held in Freudenstadt-Lauterbad, Black Forest, Germany on September 22-25, 2004. It includes a paper on the use of peptide-pulsed autologous dendritic cells in therapeutic cancer vaccination using synthetic peptides. Next is a paper that describes pre-clinical data on the use of modified whole-cell vaccines rather than defined antigens. Suggested advantages of adoptive as opposed to active immunotherapy are given in another paper.
