Figure 1. Proposed mechanism of action of algenpantucel-L immunotherapy. Algenpantucel-L relies on preexisting anti-αGal antibody response; vaccine cells are destroyed by complement-mediated lysis, which results in cross-presentation of tumor antigens; tumor specific CD8+ cytotoxic T cells are generated which recognize patient's own tumor; humoral immunity relies on antitumor antibodies.
