本研究调查了Wilms肿瘤基因产物1(WT 1)-肽疫苗在表达WT 1的急性髓性白血病(AML)和骨髓增生异常综合征(MDS)患者中的免疫原性,这些患者没有治愈性治疗选择。疫苗接种包括第1 - 4天皮下注射粒细胞-巨噬细胞集落刺激因子,第3天注射WT 1.126 -134肽和1 mg钥孔血蓝蛋白。最初的9名患者每两周接种4次疫苗,然后每月接种一次,随后的10名患者每两周接种一次疫苗。17名AML患者和2名难治性贫血伴原始细胞过多患者接受了中位数为11次的疫苗接种。治疗耐受性良好。AML患者的客观缓解为10例疾病稳定(SD),包括4例原始细胞减少超过50%的SD和2例血液学改善。另外4例患者在初始进展后有临床获益,包括1例完全缓解和3例SD。在35%的患者中,WT 1 mRNA水平较基线降低至少3倍。在18名患者中的8名中,血液中的WT 1-四聚体(+)T细胞增加,在17名患者中的8名中,骨髓中的中位频率在基线时为0.18%,在第18周为0.41%。这项WT 1疫苗接种研究为AML患者提供了潜在临床疗效的免疫学、分子学和初步证据,从而促进了进一步的研究。(血。2009; 113:6541-6548)
This study investigated the immunogenicity of Wilms tumor gene product 1 (WT1)-peptide vaccination in WT1-expressing acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) patients without curative treatment option. Vaccination consisted of granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor subcutaneously days 1 to 4, and WT1.126-134 peptide and 1 mg keyhole limpet hemocyanin on day 3. The initial 9 patients received 4 vaccinations biweekly, then monthly, and the subsequent 10 patients received continual biweekly vaccination. Seventeen AML patients and 2 refractory anemia with excess blasts patients received a median of 11 vaccinations. Treatment was well tolerated. Objective responses in AML patients were 10 stable diseases (SDs) including 4 SDs with more than 50% blast reduction and 2 with hematologic improvement. An additional 4 patients had clinical benefit after initial progression, including 1 complete remission and 3 SDs. WT1 mRNA levels decreased at least 3-fold from baseline in 35% of patients. In 8 of 18 patients, WT1-tetramer(+) T cells increased in blood and in 8 of 17 patients in bone marrow, with a median frequency in bone marrow of 0.18% at baseline and 0.41% in week 18. This WT1 vaccination study provides immunologic, molecular, and preliminary evidence of potential clinical efficacy in AML patients, warranting further investigations. (Blood. 2009; 113: 6541-6548)
