protein associated with cancer stem cells (CD133) decreased in patients who had tumor recurrence after vaccination.

"Previous studies showed an increase in CD133 expression in patients who underwent treatment with radiation and chemotherapy. Our findings suggest that targeting antigens that are highly expressed by cancer stem cells may be a viable strategy for treating patients who have glioblastoma," he said.
