Abstract:
The primary immunotherapy for gastric cancer includes cytokine therapy,monoclonal antibody therapy, and cancer vaccines. A lot of researches are being conducted to study gene immunotherapy. It has found that Cbl-b gene plays an important role in regulating anti-tumor immunity and Cbl-b protein is involved in the lymph node metastasis of gastric cancer. Silencing Cbl-b gene in T lymphocytes can enhance anti-tumor immunity,therefore may become an effective treatment for patients with advanced gastric cancer.
