RESUMO
Objective:To explore the curative effect and adverse reactions of cisplatin combined with rIL-2 on malignant pleural effusion. Methods:Totally 60 cases of patients with malignant pleural effusion were randomly divided into the observation group ( 30 cases) and the control group (30 cases). In the observation group, 30 cases were given intrapleural injection of cisplatin and rIL-2 af-ter the pleural effusions were drained, and in the control group, the patients received intrapleural injection of cisplatin. Both of the two groups were observed of tumor response and drug adverse reactions, compared the quelity of life and immune function indicators before and after treatment. Results:The response rate in the observation group was 83. 3%, which was significantly higher than that in the control group (56. 7%) (P0. 05). Conclusion:Cisplatin combined with rIL-2 shows confirmed effects in the patients with malignant pleural effusion.
RESUMO
Tumor infiltrating lymphocytes(TILs) were isolated by enzymatic digestion and discontinuous gradient centrifugation from 8 human advanced tumors (4 stomach carcinoma, 2 liver cancer, 1 non-small-cell lung carcinoma and 1 colon cancer). These cells were cultured in complete RPMI 1640 medium supplemented with l000U/ml of rhIL2 for 4-6 weeks, till the cell number reach over l09/total, reinfused to the same patients i.v. meanwhile, the patients received 105U of rhIL2 i.m for 5 days. One week before and one month after TIL infusion periphery blood from the patients was collected and the mononuclear cells were isolated. Cytotoxicity against a panel of tumor cell targets by MTT colorometric assay and lymphocyte phenotype by two-color flow cytometry were mornitored. The results showed that there was significant increase in the killing ability to the tested tumor targets to different extent, especially the killing to the target cells which shared the same histological type with the patients tumor.
