Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Several immunologic parameters in patients with positive EGFR-mutation NSCLC during initial EGFR-TKI treatment were measured. The tendency that decreased frequency in the peripheral blood of the CD4+ CD25+ Foxp3+Regulatory T cell during tumor regression was found. In contrast, analysis of MDSCs or various humoral factors showed no particular tendency. During the series of experiments, we found that DDX3X expression and CD4+ CD25+ Foxp3+ Regulatory T cell affecting acquisition of resistancy to TKI.
