Research Abstract |
We established the novel detection system for circulating tumor cells (CTC) with telomerase-specific replication adenovirus in which GFP cDNA was integrated for GFP fluorescence. Infection of these viruses with 5ml of blood samples from the patients with gynecological cancers successfully identified CTC, while no CTC was detectd in the samples from healthy volunteers. While the number or the presence of CTCs were not significantly correlated with clinicopathological characteristics, they were tightly related to the treatment outcome as well as the overall survival. Thus, the present study clearly found the clinical utility of this novel detection system for CTC.
