Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We developed several years ago new cancer thermotherapy “MCL Heat Therapy”, which is based on the particular character of the magnetite (Fe3O4). The character is generating heat by irradiation of alternative magnetic field. We performed basic research for the purpose of developing new therapy to treat both primary and metastatic lesion by which MCL Heat Therapy and cancer immunotherapy are fused. In vitro, we could not find the enhancement of tumor antigen from prostate cancer cell by heat therapy. However, in vitro, helper T cell and cytotoxic T cell were appeared in tumor tissue by MCL Heat Therapy. Under the acceptance of Institutional Review Bore of our university, new Heat Therapy with inductive heating machine RF-8 and local injection of MCL was performed for three patients. There were no adverse events.
