Abstract
The conference, organized by Profs. Mitrou, Bergmann (Frankfurt), Huber (Mainz) and Niederle (Leverkusen), concentrated almost exclusively on the role of cytokines in cancer. The majority of presentations concerned IFN-alpha, IL 2 or TNF-alpha, but G-CSF, GM-CSF, IL 4, IL 10 and TGF-beta were not neglected. Presentations achieved a laudable balance between basic science and clinically oriented studies. The present report emphasizes the clinical aspects; proceedings of the entire meeting will be published by S. Karger AG, Basel.
