Abstrakt:	Cancer is the result of the interactions between tumor cells and tumor-specific immune responses. The current biomarkers detect tumor cells' properties, but accurate measurement of tumor-specific immunity is lacking. Most immunotherapies work by activating new effector tumor antigen-specific T cells (ETASTs) or reactivating pre-existing ETASTs' repertoire. The responses to immunotherapy depend on the increase of ETASTs. The amount of ETASTs, especially in blood, is critical for therapeutic efficacy. Distinguishing ETASTs from other T cells by their structural characteristics is difficult. Therefore, nanoparticles loading whole tumor antigens are utilized to activate broad clones ETASTs pre-existing in peripheral blood, followed by detecting them. Thus, the differences between ETASTs and other T cells are transformed to the differences between activated states and unactivated states. By measuring the markers of activated states and cytotoxic functions, we can distinguish ETASTs from other T cells. Nanoparticles loading mixed multiple allogeneic tumor tissue lysates or mixed multiple tumor cell lines can be utilized as universal nanoparticles to replace nanoparticles loading personalized tumor tissue. ETASTs (TATAN-activated CD8 + IFN-γ + ) in esophageal cancer patients are more than those in healthy people. Measurement of the ETASTs in the blood of esophageal cancer patients before and after ongoing therapy showed that ETATSs increased in the blood of patients who were responsive to immunotherapy but did not increase in the blood of nonresponders. These illustrated that therapeutic efficacy was positively correlated with the level of ETASTs in PBMC. Altogether, this study provides us a highly accurate and specific biomarker for predicting the therapeutic efficacy of cancer immunotherapy and potentially other therapies, such as radiotherapy.
