Abstract:
Objective: To investigate the effect of the dosageof chemotherapeutic agent on tumor chemotherapy linked with biotherapy and provide experimentalevidence for the dose choice of chemical drugs in the combination of chemotherapy and biotherapy.Methods: The high- and low-dosage of MMC was determined by injection of mice with different dosages of MMC. Mice inoculated with H22 hepatic carcinoma cells were treated with different dosages of MMC followed by three different kinds of biotherapy: transfection with plasmid pCH510 in vivo, immunization with Hsp70-tumor antigen peptide complexes and the combination of these two elements. Results: By toxicity test of MMC to mice, it was determined that 100 ?g of MMC was high dosage and 50 ?g was low dosage. The curative effect was significantly improved if chemotherapy was followed by different elements of biotherapy. Better efficacy was obtained when biotherapy elements were used to follow the chemotherapy with high dosage of MMC. In the case of low dosage of MMC, no difference could be observed in curative effect of three different kinds of biotherapy. When high dosage of MMC was used, the curative effect of three different kinds of biotherapy was signiferently different. The best efficacy was obtained if chemotherapy was followed by the combination of two biotherapy elements, transfection with plasmid pCH510 in vivo and immunization with Hsp70-tumor antigen peptide complexes. Conclusions: Using different chemical dosages, the curative effect of chemotherapy linked with biotherapy is different. In the case of high dose, the chemotherapy linking with biotherapy can reach more better efficacy.
