Background Many biomarkers have been proposed to be predictive of response anti-programmed cell death protein-1 (PD-1)/anti-programmed ligand-1 (PD-L1) checkpoint inhibitors (CPI). However, conflicting observations and lack consensus call for an assessment their clinical utility in a large data set. Using combined set trials real-world data, we assessed the prognostic outcome CPI non-small lung cancer (NSCLC). Methods Retrospective cohort study using 24,152 patients selected from 71,850 with...
Abstract Purpose: Previous studies have indicated that carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) might be a suitable immunotherapeutic target in colorectal carcinoma (CRC). The aim of the present study was to analyze immunological and clinical effects vaccination with CEA together adjuvant granulocyte/macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF). Experimental Design: Twenty-four resected CRC patients without macroscopic disease were immunized seven times recombinant at four different dose levels over...
Abstract Purpose: The immunocytokine cergutuzumab amunaleukin (CEA-IL2v) showed manageable safety and favorable pharmacodynamics in phase I/Ib trials patients with advanced/metastatic carcinoembryonic antigen-positive (CEA+) solid tumors, but this was accompanied by a high incidence of anti-drug antibodies (ADA). We examined B-cell depletion obinutuzumab as potential mitigation strategy. Experimental Design: Preclinical data comparing rituximab versus are summarized. Substudies investigated...
Abstract Purpose: Therapeutic depletion of immunosuppressive regulatory T cells (Tregs) may overcome resistance to cancer immunotherapies. RG6292 is an anti-CD25 antibody that preferentially depletes Tregs while preserving effector cell functions in preclinical models. The safety, pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, and anti-tumor efficacy selective Treg by administered as monotherapy or combination with atezolizumab was evaluated two Phase I studies. Materials Methods: Adult patients...

Summary T‐cell immune dysfunction in patients with malignant tumours has been attributed to the altered expression of components receptor (TCR)/CD3 complex and their associated intracellular protein tyrosine kinases.

Abstract: Analysis of cytokine production is a tool to functionally characterise T cells. In this study, spontaneous and polyclonal activation induced in cells were assessed by flow cytometry patients with B‐CLL. Patients progressive disease had significantly increased number spontaneously producing IL‐2, IL‐4 GM‐CSF as compared healthy donors non‐progressive CLL, which was not the case for TNF‐α IFN‐γ However, no difference frequency these cytokines seen comparing control donors. Polyclonal...
Abstract The time kinetics of five cytokines [interleukin‐2 (IL‐2), IL‐5, interferon‐γ (IFN‐γ), granulocyte macrophage‐colony stimulating factor (GM‐CSF) and tumour necrosis factor‐α (TNF‐α)] one cytotoxic effector protein (granzyme B) was analysed by real‐time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (PCR) following in vitro stimulation human CD4 CD8 T lymphocytes. Two stimuli were used, a mitogen [phytohemagglutinin (PHA)] recall antigen [purified derivative (PPD)]. pattern cytokine mRNA...
Abstract Background: The fluorescence intensities of CD3, CD4 on T cells and CD20, CD22 molecules B were quantitatively measured lymphocytes from chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) patients healthy donors. Methods: performance three different types microbeads was compared, i.e. Quantum equivalent soluble fluorochrome (Q‐MESF), simply cellular (QSC), QuantiBRITE™ (QB). As all PE‐conjugates had a F/P ratio 1:1, the MESF units represented also antibody binding capacity (ABC). Results: ABCs CD20...
