概括
结合化学抗原受体 (CAR) T细胞疗法与向放射性核素疗法 (TRT) 的结合显示出有前途. 低剂量的TRT增强了CAR T细胞疗法,导致瘤回归和细胞因子增加,而高剂量则有害.
科学领域:
- 在瘤学瘤学.
- 免疫治疗是一种免疫疗法.
- 辐射疗法 辐射疗法
背景情况:
- 电离辐射正在探索免疫疗法协同作用.
- 化学抗原受体 (CAR) T细胞疗法在癌症治疗中显示出潜力.
- 向放射性核酸治疗 (TRT) 提供局部辐射输送.
研究的目的:
- 为了研究使用177Lu-DOTATATE的CAR T细胞治疗和TRT的组合.
- 确定TRT的最佳剂量和时间,以增强抗瘤免疫力.
- 评估TRT对CAR T细胞透,扩张和疗效的影响.
主要方法:
- 经过工程设计,可以产生表达索马托斯塔丁受体2 (SSTR2) 的CAR T细胞.
- 177Lu-DOTATATE通过CAR T细胞传递到瘤中.
- 使用18F-NOTA-Octreotide追踪CAR T细胞动态的正子发射断层扫描 (PET).
- 在TRT给药后,对瘤反应和细胞因子水平进行了监测.
主要成果:
- 低剂量TRT (2.5 Gy) 与CAR T细胞结合导致瘤迅速回归,并增加了促炎细胞因子.
- 更高的TRT剂量 (6 Gy) 也减少了瘤负担,但导致瘤和CAR T细胞的显著细胞死亡.

Targeted Cancer Therapies
7.6K
The targeted cancer therapies, also known as “molecular targeted therapies,” take advantage of the molecular and genetic differences between the cancer cells and the normal cells. It needs a thorough understanding of the cancer cells to develop drugs that can target specific molecular aspects that drive the growth, progression, and spread of cancer cells without affecting the growth and survival of other normal cells in the body.

Tumor Immunotherapy
523
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.

Combination Therapies and Personalized Medicine
4.9K
Combining two or more treatment methods increases the life span of cancer patients while reducing damage to vital organs or tissue from the overuse of a single treatment. Combination therapy also targets different cancer-inducing pathways, thus reducing the chances of developing resistance to treatment.
The combination of the drug acetazolamide and sulforaphane is a good example of combination therapy to treat cancer. The cells in the interior of a large tumor often die due to the hypoxic and...
