| pubmed-article:16899613 | pubmed:abstractText | Various immune systems play important roles in the clinical efficacy of intravesical Bacillus Calmette-Guerin (BCG) instillation for bladder cancer. However, human leukocyte antigen (HLA) class I molecules on tumor cells and various immune system cells infiltrating to/around the tumor have not been evaluated, although many prognostic factors, including clinical, pathologic, and molecular ones, have been investigated. The aim of this study was to determine immunologic prognostic factors of BCG immunotherapy for bladder cancer. | lld:pubmed |
