Generic Name: AUDENCEL
ABSTRACT -
Audencel is an autologous dendritic-cell-based cancer vaccine composed of patient-derived dendritic cells loaded with autologous tumor lysate and matured with immune-stimulating signals. It has been studied in glioblastoma immunotherapy research. As a living cellular vaccine product, it does not have a single molecular formula or small-molecule structure.
