| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We conducted a phase I/II clinical trial for patients with metastatic renal cell carcinoma (mRCC). Dendritic cell (DC) vaccine was generated using autologous tumor lysate as the antigen source. DC vaccine was administered after nephrectomy together with either IFNα or sunitinib. Five patients with mRCC were enrolled within the study period. Patients received 10.6 vaccinations on average, and no severe adverse event was observed. Immunological responses after vaccination and concomitant administration of sunitinib were analyzed for eight patients including those who were enrolled before the current grant was implemented. We demonstrated that immunosuppressive cells decreased after vaccination and sunitinib administration, which suggested that sunitinib may enforce immunological anti-tumor effect.
