Immunocompetent murine models for the study of glioblastoma immunotherapy. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Glioblastoma remains a lethal diagnosis with a 5-year survival rate of less than 10%. (NEJM 352:987-96, 2005) Although immunotherapy-based approaches are capable of inducing detectable immune responses against tumor-specific antigens, improvements in ...

Human CAR NK Cells: A New Non-viral Method Allowing High Efficient Transfection and Strong Tumor Cell Killing

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2019
CAR-NK cells may represent a valuable tool, complementary to CAR-T cells, in adoptive immunotherapy of leukemia and solid tumors. However, gene transfer to human NK cells is a challenging task, particularly with non-virus-based techniques.

Combined therapy with cytokine-induced killer cells and oncolytic adenovirus expressing IL-12 induce enhanced antitumor activity in liver tumor model. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
Both adoptive immunotherapy and gene therapy hold a great promise for treatment of malignancies. However, these strategies exhibit limited anti-tumor activity, when they are used alone.

Adoptive Immunotherapy in Chimeras with Donor Lymphocytes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
Allogeneic stem cell transplantation has a well-defined indication in the treatment of hematological malignancies. The beneficial immune effect of allogeneic marrow transplantation has long been known, but only recently have methods been developed to ...

Long-term intravital imaging of the multicolor-coded tumor microenvironment during combination immunotherapy

open access: yeseLife, 2016
The combined-immunotherapy of adoptive cell therapy (ACT) and cyclophosphamide (CTX) is one of the most efficient treatments for melanoma patients. However, no synergistic effects of CTX and ACT on the spatio-temporal dynamics of immunocytes in vivo have

Study protocol for THINK : a multinational open-label phase I study to assess the safety and clinical activity of multiple administrations of NKR-2 in patients with different metastatic tumour types [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Introduction: NKR-2 are autologous T cells genetically modified to express a chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) comprising a fusion of the natural killer group 2D (NKG2D) receptor with the CD3 zeta signalling domain, which associates with the adaptor ...

A 9L Gliosarcoma Transplantation Model for Studying Adoptive Immunotherapy into the Brains of Conscious Rats

open access: yesCell Transplantation, 1992
A rat model for brain tumor immunotherapy is described that closely mimics the type of treatment that could be administered to humans. It involves surgical implantation of a permanent cannula in the brain, through which tumor cells and various effector ...

Adoptive T-Cell Immunotherapy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) is associated with a range of malignancies involving B cells, T cells, natural killer (NK) cells, epithelial cells, and smooth muscle. All of these are associated with the latent life cycles of EBV, but the pattern of latency-associated viral antigens expressed in tumor cells depends on the type of tumor.

Comparative assessment of autologous and allogeneic iNKT cell transfer in iNKT cell-based immunotherapy

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology
Invariant natural killer T (iNKT) cells are a small subset of T lymphocytes that release large amounts of cytokines such as IFN-γ and exhibit cytotoxic activity upon activation, inducing strong anti-tumor effects.

The State of Cellular Adoptive Immunotherapy for Neuroblastoma and Other Pediatric Solid Tumors

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2017
Research on adult cancer immunotherapy is proceeding at a rapid pace resulting in an impressive success rate exemplified by a few high profile cases. However, this momentum is not readily extended to pediatric immunotherapy, and it is not for lack of ...
