Abstract
Hamsters grafted with a lymphoblastic lymphoma are refractory to reinoculation with cells of the same tumour, although the initial graft grows progressively. The nature, strength, and development of this “concomitant immunity” have been investigated and its possible role in the control of metastases has been discussed.
