Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We isolated cancer-associated fibroblast and normal fibroblast from advanced gastric cancer tissue. VEGF isoform and CCL2, which were secreted from fibroblasts, were concerned with a clinical course of gastric cancer patients. We performed a clinical study (UMIN 000017123) for relapsed or metastatic gastric cancer patients. It became clear that CCL2/CCR2 axis inhibition by Propagermanium improved overall survival to participate in immunopotentiative effects and tumor dormancy.
