Immunotherapy in liver tumors: II. Intratumoral injection with activated tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes, intrasplenic administration of recombinant interleukin-2 and interferon alpha causes tumor regression and lysis.

Abstract:

:This study tested the effect of intratumoral injection with activated tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TIL), and simultaneous administration of recombinant interleukin-2 (rIL-2) and interferon alpha (IFN-alpha) (LII protocol), on mouse liver tumor. Group I (n = 10) served as the controls. Group II (n = 17) received rIL-2 + IFN-alpha schedule. Group III (n = 20) received the LII protocol. A total of 5 x 10(6) of TIL were injected into 4 sites of a tumor in a single treatment. rIL-2 (1 x 10(6) IU) on the first day and IFN-alpha (1 x 10(5) IU) on the second day were alternately given with a total of 10 treatment doses that were completed in 20 days. Tumor remission or regression rates of 29% and 40% were obtained in groups II and III, respectively, but no remission was obtained in the controls. A large number of TIL were also observed in the tumors treated with the LII protocol. Making comparisons between the control group and IL-2 + IFN-alpha schedule, and the control group and LII protocol, the ratios of cytolytic activity of TIL in vitro were 0:32 and 0:57, respectively. We conclude that the LII protocol appears to be more effective in the treatment of mouse liver tumor than the IL-2 + IFN-alpha schedule, and that it may be a new promise for the treatment of patients with liver malignancies.
