Research Abstract |
The aims of this study were to explore the feasibility of a novel combination therapy comprising hyperthermia(HT) and dendritic cell(DC) application for oral squamous cell carcinoma(OSCC) metastasis model, and to optimize the conditions of this therapy. A more suppressive effect of tumor growth was observed, and cytotoxic T cell infiltration was significantly increased by adding mHT compared to conventional only simple HT with DCs. These phenomena also occurred in non-treated contralateral tumors as well as treated ones. Our data suggest that the combination of 43℃preheated simple HT SCCVII tumors and additional 41℃heat mHT promotes DC maturation, resulting in suppression of tumor growth systemically and lifetime prolongation in mice. A three-step process of additional mHT after local HT and intratumoral immature DC(iDC) injection could be a more effective and novel method for the treatment of OSCC.
