Autologous Antigen-activated Dendritic Cells in the Treatment of Patients With Breast Cancer

Currently, technologies are being developed to improve the clinical outcomes of patients with complex treatment of breast cancer. Many patients are immunosuppressed after surgical, radiation and chemotherapeutic treatment, which leads to dysfunction of T cells, resulting in tumor cells avoiding immune surveillance. Restoration of antitumor immunity during immunotherapy is one of the modern approaches in the treatment of breast cancer, which contributes to the formation of an effective specific immune response, the destruction of tumor cells while minimizing toxicity. Dendritic cells (DC) and the lymphocytes induced by them are one of the most effective methods for the destruction of residual cancer cells, which are the leading cause of relapse and metastasis.
