Research Abstract |
We have investigated whether HER2-specific cellular immunity could be induced after trastuzumab therapy in HER2-positive breast cancer patients. We analyzed the induction of HER2 specific CD8+T cells before and after trastuzumab therapy by tetramer assay and ELISPOT assay. HER2p369 specific CD8+T cells after trastuzumab were detected in only HER2-positive metastatic breast cancer patients. We could not detect HER2-specific CD8+T cells in early breast cancer patients after trastuzumab.
