| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We had experimented for development of the new treatment to HPV (human papilloma virus) related head and neck cancer. We had experimented to establish cancer vaccine therapy using a dendritic cell (DC). A dendritic cell (CD14 positive cell) and cytotoxicic Tlymphocytes (CTL) were extracted from the blood which we got from the volunteer and head and neck cancer patients who were taken participation consent in this research and we made DC vaccines which were stimulated antigen-specifically by HLA*A24 binding peptides which derives from HPVE6,E7 antigen in vitro. In addition, we reserch the antitumor effect by antigen specific DC Vaccine to HPV16 infected head and neck cancer cell-lines (UMSCC-047 and HSC4 cell line) wich own our laboratory ,and we were continuously analyzed.
