How Does The Immune System Work?
The body’s first line of defense against invaders entering the body is innate immunity, sometimes known as “non-specific” immunity; However, when matters spiral out of control, the innate immune system calls for aid from the adaptive immune system. Dendritic Cells act as a bridge between the innate immune system and the adaptive immune system.
Study for Advanced Pancreas Cancer treated by Oncothermia
This clinical study focused on the use of oncothermia, a combination of conventional therapies with a novel treatment, for patients with aggressive and common pancreas cancer (PCA). The study took place in two centers and showed exceptional survival benefits compared to historical data, demonstrating the feasibility and potential of oncothermia for PCA treatment.
Dendritic Cell Vaccinations in Prostate Cancer: Immune Response Correlation
This study focused on immunotherapy using blood-derived dendritic cells (DCs) in patients with castration-resistant prostate cancer.
Autologous dendritic cells and activated cytotoxic T‐cells
Breast cancer is the most common cancer in women worldwide. Researchers have developed a new treatment using dendritic cells (DCs) and cytotoxic T lymphocytes to target residual cancer cells that often cause tumor recurrence and spreading to other parts of the body.
WT1-pulsed DCV Combined with Chemotherapy
The study tested a WT1-DC vaccine combined with chemotherapy in surgically treated pancreatic cancer patients.
Combining chemotherapy with adoptive cellular therapy
This study examined a combination of dendritic cell (DC) therapy and cytokine-induced killer (CIK) cells with high-dose chemotherapy (HDC) for metastatic breast cancer (MBC) patients.
