autologous DC-CIK(National Taiwan University Hospital)

The treatment of liver cancer needs integrated medical strategies, including surgery, chemotherapy, target therapy, radiotherapy, and immunotherapy. According to the patient's condition to develop a personalized and best treatment plan. Cryoablation can produce osmotic shock through repeated freeze-thaw to cause tumor cell necrosis, and release tumor antigens to activate anti-tumor immune responses. Immune cell therapy is an emerging field across cancer types in current cancer treatment. This study desired to combine cryotherapy and cellular immunotherapy to achieve the effect of tumor control. In recent years, cancer treatment studies have showed that cryoablation combined with immune cell therapy can play a good auxiliary effect and improve the cancer treatment efficacy significantly.
This trial study is a single center, single-arm, non-blind open-label human clinical trial. To explore the therapeutic effect and safety of cryoablation combined with autologous DC-CIK (through hepatic artery infusion, HAI) for patients with advanced liver cancers. The DC-CIK biologics are provided by BOHUI Biotech company. Their core technology (including clinical treatment and cell culture techniques) was transferred from Dr. Hasumi who is a Japanese clinician and this technical founder.
