Abstract
Mammals with cancer are treated with an antibody which specifically binds to CD223 protein and inhibits negative T cell regulatory function of CD223. The mammal may be a human. The antibody may be a monoclonal antibody. The amount of the antibody administered may be sufficient to enhance an immune T cell response to the cancer.
