BACKGROUND
We previously reported the clinical efficacy of adoptive immunotherapy (AIT) with dendritic cells (DCs) pulsed with mucin 1 (MUC1) peptide and cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTLs). We also reported that gemcitabine (GEM) enhances anti-tumor immunity by suppressing regulatory T cells. Therefore, in the present study, we performed combination therapy with AIT and GEM for patients with unresectable or recurrent pancreatic cancer.
PATIENTS AND METHODS
Forty-two patients with unresectable or recurrent pancreatic cancer were treated. DCs were generated by culture with granulocyte macrophage colony-stimulating factor and interleukin-4 and then exposed to tumor necrosis factor-α. Mature DCs were transfected with MUC1-mRNA by electroporation (MUC1-DCs). MUC1-CTLs were induced by co-culture with YPK-1, a human pancreatic cancer cell line, and then with interleukin-2. Patients were treated with GEM, while MUC1-DCs were intradermally injected, and MUC1-CTLs were intravenously administered.
RESULTS
Median survival time (MST) was 13.9 months, and the 1-year survival rate was 51.1%. Of 42 patients, one patient had complete response (2.4%), three patients had partial response (7.1%) and 22 patients had stable disease (52.4%). The disease control ratio was 61.9%. The MST and 1-year survival rate of 35 patients who received more than 1 × 10(7) MUC1-DCs per injection was 16.1 months and 60.3%, respectively. Liver metastasis occurred in only 5 patients among 35 patients without liver metastasis before treatment. There were no severe toxicities associated with AIT.
CONCLUSION
AIT with MUC1-DCs and MUC1-CTLs plus GEM may be a feasible and effective treatment for pancreatic cancer.
背景
我们之前报道了用黏蛋白1（MUC1）肽脉冲处理的树突状细胞（DCs）和细胞毒性T淋巴细胞（CTLs）进行过继性免疫治疗（AIT）的临床疗效。我们还报道了吉西他滨（GEM）通过抑制调节性T细胞来增强抗肿瘤免疫力。因此，在本研究中，我们对不可切除或复发性胰腺癌患者进行了AIT与GEM的联合治疗。
患者与方法
42例不可切除或复发性胰腺癌患者接受了治疗。DCs通过与粒细胞巨噬细胞集落刺激因子和白细胞介素-4培养产生，然后暴露于肿瘤坏死因子-α。成熟的DCs通过电穿孔用MUC1-mRNA转染（MUC1-DCs）。MUC1-CTLs通过与人类胰腺癌细胞系YPK-1共培养，然后与白细胞介素-2共培养诱导产生。患者接受GEM治疗，同时皮内注射MUC1-DCs，静脉注射MUC1-CTLs。
结果
中位生存时间（MST）为13.9个月，1年生存率为51.1%。42例患者中，1例完全缓解（2.4%），3例部分缓解（7.1%），22例病情稳定（52.4%）。疾病控制率为61.9%。每次注射接受超过1×10(7)个MUC1-DCs的35例患者的MST和1年生存率分别为16.1个月和60.3%。在治疗前无肝转移的35例患者中，仅5例发生肝转移。没有与AIT相关的严重毒性反应。
结论
用MUC1-DCs和MUC1-CTLs联合GEM进行AIT可能是一种治疗胰腺癌的可行且有效的方法。
