Irradiation of tumor cells up-regulates Fas and enhances CTL lytic activity and CTL adoptive immunotherapy

TL;DR: Results showed for the first time that regulation of the Fas pathway in tumor cells by irradiation plays an important role in their sensitization to Ag-specific CTL; and a combination regimen of tumor-targeted irradiation and CTL promotes more effective antitumor responses in vivo, which may have implications for the combination of immunotherapy and radiation therapy.
Journal ArticleDOI

External beam radiation of tumors alters phenotype of tumor cells to render them susceptible to vaccine-mediated T-cell killing.

TL;DR: A new paradigm for the use of local tumor irradiation in combination with active specific vaccine therapy to elicit durable antitumor responses of established tumors is demonstrated.
