MethodsThirtyeight NSCLC patients were enrolled, and 19 patients received not only chemotherapy and radiotherapy but also adoptive immunotherapy with CIK cells combined with IL2 compared with the other 19 patients who only accepted radiotherapy and chemotherapy. The changes of immunologic functions and life qualities after the CIK cells combined with IL2 being transfused back to the patients with NSCLC were observed. Immune targets of the treatment group and control group, such as peripheral blood CD3+, CD4+, CD8+ T cell percentage, ratio of CD4+/CD8+ and Th1/Th2, were observed at the end and after 3 month of the radiation and chemotherapy. ResultsBoth of the two groups were neither having obvious adverse reactions. After CIK cells combined with IL2 treatment, the life qualities of patients improved, such as 18 cases of mental improvement, 15 cases of appetite improvement, 12 cases of sleep improvement, and 3 cases of fatigue symptoms improvement. The percentage of CD3+, CD4+ cells in the treatment group increased [(66.39±9.22)% vs (42.98±7.23)%, t=5.45,P=0.00;(32.27±3.75)% vs (26.38±2.51)%, t=5.73,P=0.00], the percentage of CD8+ cells declined [(17.51±1.85)% vs (20.90±2.31)%, t=5.21,P=0.00], the rate of CD4+/CD8+ increased and the rate of Th1/Th2 obversed [(1.86±0.32) vs (1.27±0.19), t=7.13,P=0.00;(1.15±0.48) vs (0.91±0.30), t=2.42,P=0.02]. There were significant differences between the two groups. ConclusionAdoptive immunotherapy with CIK cells combined with IL2 is safe in clinical, which can improve the immunologic functions and life qualities of the patients with NSCLC.
