Abstract
- Background/aim: Chemoimmunotherapy is a promising treatment for various malignant diseases. In this study, we examined whether first-line chemoimmunotherapy using adoptive immune-cell therapy was effective for metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC).<br />Patients and Methods: The therapeutic efficacy and safety of the standard first-line chemoimmunotherapy with adoptive αβ T cell therapy and bevacizumab were assessed using thirty-two patients with mCRC in our hospital. Immunological status after this chemoimmunotherapy was also evaluated.<br />Results: The response and disease control rates were 68.8% and 87.5%, respectively. Further, median progression-free and overall survival were 14.2 and 35.3 months. Immunotherapy-associated toxicity was minimal. Significant decrease in the change of monocyte number (p=0.006) and increase in the change of rate of lymphocyte-to-monocyte ratio (p=0.039) were seen in the complete response group.<br />Conclusion: First-line chemoimmunotherapy with adoptive αβ T cell therapy may be useful for mCRC.<br /> (Copyright© 2020, International Institute of Anticancer Research (Dr. George J.
