0608 GCC:Phase I Study of Intra-tumoral Injection of Dendritic Cells for the Recurrent or Metastatic Squamous Cell Carcinoma of the Head and Neck
White blood cells are part of the body's defense system. Sometimes when you have cancer,
your body does not know that the cancer cells are making you sick. We hope to teach your
white blood cells to find and destroy your cancer cells with a vaccine. The vaccine will be
made from a special kind of blood cell called a dendritic cell. This is the cell that will
carry the information about your cancer to your white blood cells in your body.
