Disclosed is an antitumor vaccine including testicular and fetal tissue-derived components. Cell preparations are prepared from normal tissues harvested directly from animals. Such vaccines may be used in the treatment and prevention of different cancers. For example, a vaccine consisting of glutaraldehyde-treated cells prepared from sheep testis and fetal lung has been found to be effective in inducing antitumor cell-mediated responses, as well as in prolonging the survival of mice with lung cancer.
