Also provided are methods for preventing, reducing, and/or eliminating the formation of fibroses associated with tumors and/or cancers, and methods for treating gastrin-associated tumors and/or cancers that include administering to subjects in need thereof a first agent that provides and/or induces an anti-gastrin humoral or cellular immune response in the subject and a second agent that includes one or more stimulators of cellular immune responses against the tumors and/or cancers.
