Abstract

A method for diagnosing or treating a mammalian subject having, or at risk of developing cancer, comprises: generating a circulating anti-cancer CD4+ Th1response from antigen presenting cells or their precursors and CD4+ T-cells from a sample of said subject's blood which causes secretion of interferon-gamma (IFN-gamma); and detecting said anti-cancer CD4+ Th1 response to determine if said response is depressed. A method for restoring HER2-specific CD4+ Th1immune response in a HER2 -positive breast cancer patient in need thereof, comprises: administering to said patient a therapeutically effective amount of a dendritic cell (DC) vaccine comprising autologous DCs pulsed with HER2 -derived MHC class II binding peptides (DC vaccination) to elevate said patient's anti-HER2 CD4+ Th1 response; and measuring said anti-HER2 Th1 response of said patient pre- and post-DC vaccination to determine the amount of increase in said response.

Description

[0001] This application claims the priority and rights of the U.S. Provisional Patent Application serial number 61 / 953,726 filed on March 14, 2014. [0002] Thanks [0003] This application was developed with partial support from the National Institutes of Health grant number R01 CA096997. The government has certain rights in this application. Technical field [0004] This example addresses the gradual loss of immune response in cancer, especially anti-HER2 / neu CD4 + Type 1 T helper cells ("Th1") respond to the loss in HER2-driven breast cancer and its recovery, and diagnostic monitoring methods, treatment methods and tools based thereon. Background technique [0005] Breast cancer ("BC") is the leading cause of cancer-related mortality worldwide. See, Jemal, A., etc., Global Cancer Statistics. CA: Journal of Cancer Clinicians 61: 69-90 (2011). Through the development of gene expression markers, at least four prominent breast tumor phenotypes are now recognized: luminal A and lumi...
