Abstract

The factors that determine the impact of antitumor antibodies on tumor progression are poorly defined. We found that the tumor microenvironment holds the key. In the absence of dendritic cell (DC) stimulation, such antibodies provide little benefit, but in a stimulatory context they can initiate potent antitumor immunity.
