Abstract

Preliminary studies with the modified Field & Caspary (1970) system (the MOD MEM of Pritchard et al., 1972a) confirm sensitization of lymphocytes from thirteen cancer patients to encephalitogenic factor (EF) or cancer basic protein (Ca.BP). A control group of eleven subjects consisting of four normals and seven hospital patients without malignant disease showed no such sensitization.
