O 25: Immunotherapy for Brain Tumor
In 1890, Coley observed that cancer patients who developed infections had smaller tumors. From this, he developed Coley’s toxin and treated tumors with injections of infectious materials. In 1960s, Mahaley used monoclonal antibodies to treat central nervous system(CNS) tumors, that research and clinical investigations in brain tumor immunotherapy became a serious undertaking. ...
متن کاملChemo-immunotherapy induces tumor regression in a mouse model of spontaneous mammary carcinogenesis
Tumor-specific immune tolerance represents an obstacle for the development of effective anti-tumor immune responses through cancer vaccines. We here evaluated the efficacy of chemo-immunotherapy in breaking tumor-specific immune tolerance in an almost incurable mouse model of spontaneous carcinogenesis.Transgenic HER-2/neu mice bearing large mammary tumors received the adoptive transfer of sple...
متن کاملEffectiveness of Leukocyte Immunotherapy in Primary Recurrent Spontaneous Abortion (RSA)
Background: Recurrent spontaneous abortion (RSA) is defined as three or more se-quential abortions before the twentieth week of gestation. There are evidences to sup-port an allo-immunologic mechanism for RSA. One of the methods for treatment of RSA is leukocyte therapy; however there is still controversy about effectiveness of this method. Objectives: To evaluate the effectiveness of leukocyte...
متن کاملEstimation of the Domain of Attraction of Free Tumor Equilibrium Point for Perturbed Tumor Immunotherapy Model
In this paper, we are going to estimate the domain of attraction of tumor-free equilibrium points in a perturbed cancer tumor model describing the tumor-immune system competition dynamics. The proposed method is based on an optimization problem solution for a chosen Lyapunov function that can be casted in terms of Linear Matrix Inequalities constraint and Taylor expansion of nonlinear terms. We...
متن کاملDendritic Cell Maturation with CpG for Tumor Immunotherapy
Background: Bacterial DNA has immunostimulatory effects on different types of immune cells such as dendritic cells (DCs). Application of DCs as a cellular adjuvant represents a promising approach in the immunotherapy of infectious disease and cancers. Objectives: To investigate the effect of tumor antigen pulsed DCs in the presence of CpG-1826 in treatment of a murine model of cancer. Methods: ...
