Human CLEC9A antibodies deliver Wilms' tumor 1 (WT1) antigen to CD141+ dendritic cells to activate naïve and memory WT1-specific CD8+ T cells.

Delivery of WT1 to CD141+ DCs via CLEC9A stimulates CD8+ T cells more potently than either untargeted delivery or widespread delivery to all Ag-presenting cells via DEC-205, suggesting that cross-presentation by CD141+ DCs is sufficient for effective CD8+ T-cell priming in humans. The CLEC9A-WT1 vaccine is a promising candidate immunotherapy for malignancies that express WT1.
