Abstract: The invention provides a method of radiosensitizing a tumor in a subject by contacting the tumor with a cytokine or a nucleic acid molecule encoding a cytokine. The invention also provides a method of radiosensitizing a tumor in a subject by administering, at a site other than the tumor, a cell genetically modified to express a cytokine. The invention further provides a method of reducing the severity of a cancer in a subject by administering a cytokine at the site of the tumor or by immunizing the subject at a site other than the tumor with tumor cells genetically modified to express a cytokine, and treating the tumor with radiotherapy.

First Claim:
Show all 2 claims
I claim:     1. A method of inhibiting the growth of a tumor in a mammal, comprising
  • (a) administering a tumor cell expressing interleukin-3 to said mammal, wherein expression of interleukin-3 stimulates an immune response against the tumor and wherein said tumor has increased radiation susceptibility, wherein said tumor cell has at least one antigen in common with said tumor; and
  • (b) treating said tumor with radiation, wherein the growth of said tumor is inhibited.
