Immunotherapy using dendritic cell (DC)-based vaccination is an approved approach for harnessing the potential of a patient's own immune system to eliminate tumor cells in metastatic hormone-refractory cancer. Overall, although many DC vaccines have been tested in the clinic and proven to be immunogenic, and in some cases associated with clinical outcome, there remains no consensus on how to manufacture DC vaccines. In this review we will discuss what has been learned thus far about human DC biology from clinical studies, and how current approaches to apply DC vaccines in the clinic could be improved to enhance anti-tumor immunity.
使用基于树突状细胞(DC)的疫苗进行免疫治疗是一种已获批准的方法,可利用患者自身免疫系统的潜力来消除转移性激素难治性癌症中的肿瘤细胞。总体而言,尽管许多DC疫苗已在临床上进行了测试并被证明具有免疫原性,并且在某些情况下与临床结果相关,但在如何生产DC疫苗方面仍未达成共识。在这篇综述中,我们将讨论到目前为止从临床研究中学到的关于人类DC生物学的知识,以及如何改进目前在临床上应用DC疫苗的方法以增强抗肿瘤免疫力。
