Immunotherapeutic strategies for bladder cancer
Bladder cancer is a common urologic malignancy with rising incidence in the elderly population. In most cases, bladder cancer is non-muscle-invasive at diagnosis and shows dramatically high recurrence rates, although current treatments often reduce the risk of disease progression. Immunotherapy using intravesical instillation of Bacillus Calmette-Guérin (BCG) remains the most effective therapy ...
متن کاملDevelopment of an immunotherapeutic adenovirus targeting hormone-independent prostate cancer
BACKGROUND To develop a targeting therapy for hormone-independent prostate cancer, we constructed and characterized conditionally replicating oncolytic adenovirus (Ad) equipped with mRFP (monomeric red fluorescence protein)/ttk (modified herpes simplex virus thymidine kinase). This construct was then further modified to express both mRFP/ttk and a soluble form of cytokine FLT3L (fms-related tyr...
متن کاملImplementing combinatorial immunotherapeutic regimens against cancer
Harnessing the host immune system to eradicate cancer has a high therapeutic potential. One paradigm of anticancer immunotherapy is represented by allogeneic stem cell transplantation. In this setting, the host must be conditioned prior to transplantation, allowing for engraftment and subsequent graft-vs.-tumor reactivity. Conditioning may also be a prerequisite for the efficacy of other immuno...
متن کاملInterferon- as an immunotherapeutic protein
Interferon(IFN) has proven to be a clinically effective antiviral and antineoplastic therapeutic drug for more than 16 years. During this time, evidence from in vitro laboratory studies and the clinical arena has supported the concept that IFNis an immunotherapeutic drug. By regulating a diverse set of cytokines and their receptors, IFNis uniquely positioned to prime the host immune response an...
متن کاملDendritic cell, the immunotherapeutic cell for cancer.
Dendritic cells play an important role in the development of effective cancer vaccines. These cells have the potential to present tumour-specific antigens and thereby induce an immune response. Various studies involving clinical trials have investigated the efficacy of administering antigen-loaded dendritic cells for cancer therapy. In order to design such experiments it is important to conside...
