Popis: | Purpose: Metastatic renal cell carcinoma is a disease with a mean survival of 6 to 10 months. Interleukin-2 (IL-2), the only approved therapy for metastatic renal cell carcinoma, is associated with a 14% response rate and durable remissions in some patients with high performance status. We performed a series of trials of IL-2 plus tumor infiltrating lymphocyte cell therapy and report the clinical results from 62 patients enrolled in these trials.Materials and Methods: Patients were eligible if they had metastatic renal cell carcinoma with the primary tumor in place and an Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status of 0 or 1. Patients were treated with cytokines before nephrectomy and preparation of cytokine primed tumor infiltrating lymphocytes or CD8(-) tumor infiltrating lymphocytes were isolated for infusion into patients. Of 62 patients enrolled 55 were treated with tumor infiltrating lymphocytes and IL-2, and were evaluable for toxicity, response and survival.Results: There were no... |
