The accuracy of an individualized tumor response (ITR) assay in Japan was reportedly 74% (30th Annual Meeting of Japan Research Society for Appropriate Cancer Chemotherapy). Based upon the hypothesis according to which the appropriate adjuvant cancer chemotherapy will increase the survival outcome after surgery of advanced gastric cancer, we have clarified the usefulness of an ITR assay in evaluating the appropriate adjuvant chemotherapy for gastric cancer. While recent reports indicate the standard therapy for gastric cancer, the gastric cancer cohort includes responder and non-responder to adjuvant cancer chemotherapy. The ITR assay will be useful to differentiate the responder and nonresponder to cancer chemotherapy.

Tumor Immunotherapy

Immunotherapy is a treatment that boosts or manipulates the immune system to fight diseases, including cancer. For instance, by stimulating an immune response through vaccinations against viruses that cause cancers, like hepatitis B virus and human papillomavirus, these diseases can be prevented. Nonetheless, some cancer cells can avoid the immune system due to their rapid mutation and division. The immune response to many cancers involves three phases: elimination, equilibrium, and escape.
