PG - 4564-4573 AB - In recent decades, immunotherapy has undergone extensive developments for oncologic therapy applications. Dendritic cells (DCs) plays a fundamental role in cell-based vaccination immunotherapy against various types of cancer. It involves stimulating innate and adaptive immunity, in particular cytotoxic T-cell mediated antitumor effects, against targeted tumors and has been studied in both preclinical and clinical settings. Nevertheless, clinical outcomes have been unsatisfying. The antitumor response requires sufficient migration of viable DCs from primary administration site to targeted tumors through related lymphatics. The dynamics and mechanisms of the DCs migration still need further investigation. Here, we briefly introduce the current clinically applicable methods for manufacturing DC-based cancer vaccines and their most commonly used non-invasive, real-time tracking approaches. Furthermore, we propose a hypothesis that intraperitoneal injection may improve the efficiency of DC-based cancer vaccine.
