Abstract
During the past decade this country has made an enormous research investment in fundamental tumor immunobiology, and this has led to experimental delineation of important host-tumor inter-relations. Some of these basic observations give strong indications of a coming harvest of technics and concepts that will assist in the clinical management of human cancer patients. Three recent developments may herald such applications.The cellular immune response has been established as having a major role in the recognition and destruction of experimentally induced tumors. A more general, but as yet unproved, concept is that cellular surveillance is a major function of the . . .
