Hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) is a last treatment resort and only potentially curative treatment option for several hematological malignancies resistant to chemotherapy. The induction of profound immune regulation after allogeneic HCT is imperative to prevent graft-versus-host reactions and, at the same time, allow protective immune responses against pathogens and against tumor cells. Dendritic cells (DCs) are highly specialized antigen-presenting cells that are essential in regulating this balance and are of major interest as a tool to modulate immune responses in the complex and challenging phase of immune reconstitution early after allo-HCT. This review focuses on the use of DC vaccination to prevent cancer relapses early after allo-HCT. It describes the role of host and donor-DCs, various vaccination strategies, different DC subsets, antigen loading, DC maturation/activation, and injection sites and dose. At last, clinical trials using DC vaccination post-allo-HCT and the future perspectives of DC vaccination in combination with other cancer immunotherapies are discussed.
造血细胞移植(HCT)是一种最后的治疗手段,也是几种对化疗耐药的血液系统恶性肿瘤唯一可能的治愈性治疗选择。异基因造血细胞移植后诱导深度免疫调节对于预防移植物抗宿主反应至关重要,同时还能允许针对病原体和肿瘤细胞产生保护性免疫反应。树突状细胞(DCs)是高度专业化的抗原呈递细胞,对于调节这种平衡至关重要,并且作为一种在异基因造血细胞移植后早期复杂且具有挑战性的免疫重建阶段调节免疫反应的工具备受关注。本综述聚焦于使用树突状细胞疫苗接种预防异基因造血细胞移植后早期癌症复发。它描述了宿主和供体树突状细胞的作用、各种疫苗接种策略、不同的树突状细胞亚群、抗原负载、树突状细胞成熟/激活以及注射部位和剂量。最后,讨论了异基因造血细胞移植后使用树突状细胞疫苗接种的临床试验以及树突状细胞疫苗接种与其他癌症免疫疗法联合应用的未来前景。
