Treatment of multiple solitary plasmacytomas with cytokine-induced killer cells [PDF]

open access: yesCytotherapy, 2014
Currently available treatment methods for advanced plasmacytoma include surgery, chemotherapy, radiotherapy, immunomodulatory agents, hematopoietic stem cell transplantation and donor lymphocyte infusion. We report a case of advanced refractory multiple solitary plasmacytomas in a 68-year-old Asian man with multiple bone lesions, in whom autologous ...

Cytokine-induced killer cell/dendritic cell–cytokine-induced killer cell immunotherapy for the postoperative treatment of gastric cancer

open access: yesMedicine, 2018
Immunotherapy is emerging as a new treatment strategy for gastric cancer(GC). However, the efficacy and safety of this technique remain unclear. This meta-analysis aimed to assess the effect of cytokine-induced killer cell (CIK)/dendritic cell-cytokine-induced killer cell (DC-CIK) treatment for GC after surgery.Hazard ratio (HR), overall survival (OS ...

Functional invariant natural killer T-cell and CD1d axis in chronic lymphocytic leukemia: implications for immunotherapy

open access: yesHaematologica, 2013
Invariant natural killer T cells recognize glycolipid antigens such as α-galactosylceramide presented by CD1d. In preclinical models of B-cell malignancies, α-galactosylceramide is an adjuvant to tumor vaccination, enhancing tumor-specific T-cell ...

Cytokine-induced killer cells/dendritic cells and cytokine-induced killer cells immunotherapy for the treatment of esophageal cancer in China: a meta-analysis

open access: yesOncoTargets and Therapy, 2017
Immunotherapy based on cytokine-induced killer cells or combination of dendritic cells and cytokine-induced killer cells (CIK/DC-CIK) showed promising clinical outcomes for treating esophageal cancer (EC). However, the clinical benefit varies among previous studies.

Cytotoxic capacity of IL-15-stimulated cytokine-induced killer cells against human acute myeloid leukemia and rhabdomyosarcoma in humanized preclinical mouse models

open access: yes, 2012
Allogeneic stem cell transplantation (allo-SCT) has become an important treatment modality for patients with high-risk acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and is also under investigation for soft tissue sarcomas.

Adjuvant alternative cytokine-induced killer cell combined with natural killer cell immunotherapy improves the prognosis of post-mastectomy breast cancer

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2022
Breast cancer is one of the most common cancers in women. Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) has a significantly worse prognosis due to the lack of endocrine receptors including estrogen receptor (ER), progesterone receptor (PR) and human epidermal ...

Efficacy of cytokine-induced killer cells targeting CD40 and GITR. [PDF]

open access: yesOncol Lett, 2019
Since the publication of a novel protocol in 1991, cytokine-induced killer (CIK) cells have shown promising results in the treatment against neoplastic diseases. Despite ongoing preclinical and clinical studies, CIK cell treatment in the context of human monoclonal antibodies targeting tumor-necrosis factor receptors remains overlooked.
