Summary

ट्यूमर प्रतिरक्षा चिकित्सा में उपयोग के लिए ऑटोलॉगस वृक्ष के समान कोशिकाओं की बड़ी संख्या (डीसी) पैदा करने के लिए सबसे अधिक इस्तेमाल किया विधि वर्णित है. विधि monocytes से डीसी अंतर करने के लिए आईएल -4 और जीएम-CSF का उपयोग करता है. वे रोगी में वापस इंजेक्शन हैं पहले अपरिपक्व डीसी परिपक्व और फिर एंटीजन के साथ लोड करने के लिए प्रेरित कर रहे हैं.

Abstract

While clinical studies have established that antigen-loaded DC vaccines are safe and promising therapy for tumors 1, their clinical efficacy remains to be established. The method described below, prepared in accordance with Good Manufacturing Process (GMP) guidelines, is an optimization of the most common ex vivo preparation method for generating large numbers of DCs for clinical studies 2.

Our method utilizes the synthetic TLR 3 agonist Polyinosinic-Polycytidylic Acid-poly-L-lysine Carboxymethylcellulose (Poly-ICLC) to stimulate the DCs. Our previous study established that Poly-ICLC is the most potent individual maturation stimulus for human DCs as assessed by an upregulation of CD83 and CD86, induction of interleukin-12 (IL-12), tumor necrosis factor (TNF), interferon gamma-induced protein 10 (IP-10), interleukmin 1 (IL-1), and type I interferons (IFN), and minimal interleukin 10 (IL-10) production.

DCs are differentiated from frozen peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) obtained by leukapheresis. PBMCs are isolated by Ficoll gradient centrifugation and frozen in aliquots. On Day 1, PBMCs are thawed and plated onto tissue culture flasks to select for monocytes which adhere to the plastic surface after 1-2 hr incubation at 37 °C in the tissue culture incubator. After incubation, the lymphocytes are washed off and the adherent monocytes are cultured for 5 days in the presence of interleukin-4 (IL-4) and granulocyte macrophage-colony stimulating factor (GM-CSF) to differentiate to immature DCs. On Day 6, immature DCs are pulsed with the keyhole limpet hemocyanin (KLH) protein which serves as a control for the quality of the vaccine and may boost the immunogenicity of the vaccine 3. The DCs are stimulated to mature, loaded with peptide antigens, and incubated overnight. On Day 7, the cells are washed, and frozen in 1 ml aliquots containing 4 – 20 x 106 cells using a controlled-rate freezer. Lot release testing for the batches of DCs is performed and must meet minimum specifications before they are injected into patients.

Protocol

1. PBMCs 4 के अलगाव और Cryopreservation Aseptically कील एक प्लाज्मा हस्तांतरण सेट का उपयोग कर leukapheresis बैग में उपयोग बंदरगाहों में से एक है. एक 60 मिलीलीटर सिरिंज का प्रयोग, एक बाँझ 500 मिलीलीटर की बोतल में रोगियों से प्राप्त le…

Representative Results

10 के बीच – शुरू PBMCs के 20% संस्कृति अवधि के अंत में डीसी में अंतर. परिपक्व DCs CD11c हैं + CD14-CD83 + CD40 +, और CCR7 + (चित्रा 1). वे MHC वर्ग मैं और द्वितीय अणुओं और costimulatory अणुओं CD80 और CD86 के उच्च स्तर को व्यक्त करते हैं. अन्य TLR agonists के <su…

Discussion

प्रथम चरण और द्वितीय monocyte व्युत्पन्न DCs की क्लिनिकल परीक्षण वे रोगियों लेकिन नैदानिक ​​सफलता 1 सीमित किया गया है में प्रतिरक्षा प्रतिक्रिया को प्रेरित दिखाया है. यह ट्यूमर immunotherapeutic उपयोग के लिए इष्टत?…
