Cell population for use in treating cancer
The invention pertains to a cell population for use in treating cancer in a patient, comprising CD1c (BDCA-1) + /CD19 − dendritic cells, wherein CD1c(BDCA-1) + /CD19 − dendritic cells are depleted for CD1c (BDCA-1) + /CD19 − /CD14 + cells.
1. A method for treating cancer, comprising administering a cell population of CD1c+/CD19-myeloid dendritic cells to a patient diagnosed with cancer, wherein less than or equal to 25% of the CD1c+/CD19− dendritic cells are CD1c+/CD19−/CD14+ cells.
2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the cancer is a solid cancer or a blood cancer.
3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the cancer is a chronic myeloid leukemia.
4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the cancer is a melanoma.
5. The method of claim 1 , wherein the cancer is a prostate cancer.
6. The method of claim 1 , wherein the cell population further comprises cells that are CD304+(BDCA-4+) plasmacytoid dendritic cells.
