第三集我們講述增加T cell順利到達癌細胞位置的其中一種手段。748Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQqd26wZZxN

748Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlrMrnPP0ea
而這一集我們將講解一道關於檢測阻擋PD1的抗體Pembrolizumab成效的研究。748Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4TyfBZdH0y
748Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5LuP50l0Pa
748Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr3oT8VERoB
關於阻檔PD1的原理及初心，可參閱第一集，其後可直接跳過第二第三集來到第四集本集。748Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUd7KS9NtIg

（圖2）現今約只有20%的病人能夠從免疫治療中獲取長遠且持續的正面效果。748Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0ACDZqrDBM

748Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoTtZbr7ujZ
其有效的程度實屬可圈可點，如果有方法能夠盡快得知免疫治療沒有預期成效的話，那就可以即時轉用其他治療手段，把握時候嘗試用第二種方法入手打擊癌症。748Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAur1giG9mD
748Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5kiuCjbzS0
對此，有科學家嘗試量度血液中癌細胞的DNA含量，觀察能否藉此方法預判免疫治療的效果（Ref1)。748Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt3TmN8CYIY
748Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5crpDQP1VT

(圖3）癌細胞DNA之所以會出現在血液中，主要由兩大途徑所成。748Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNRIapWNnmS
748Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhNSBwdV2F0
748Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDnE76F42yY
1.癌細胞會利用血液循環系統或者淋巴系統轉移到第二個位置，748Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa1Qd0Qvpmd
因此血液會有癌細胞的DNA。748Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdKjRkk7SDt
748Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhofmWHWBCM
2.癌細胞亦會往外釋出名Exosome的物質，裡頭亦含有癌細胞的DNA。748Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbe9owEuIY0
748Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡphlFX3udKK
在這裡，我們暫稱癌細胞在血液中的DNA為ctDNA，Circulating Tumor DNA。748Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdHOOl1tcOQ

（圖4）圖中為利用阻擋PD1的抗體Pembrolizumab作治療的兩名病人結果。748Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUjhl6ODnT1
748Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPTdrQGHdrv
748Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtVzBRTUtB9
紅線為電腦斷層掃描觀察癌細胞大小的影像，而黑線為量度癌細胞在血液(ctDNA)的含量，可見黑線(量度ctDNA的含量)能夠更快預判免疫治療結果成效。748Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmSXzJSjC8K
748Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYaZAxpmXtl
而且，有另外10名接受免疫治療的病人在初期(服用藥物後6-7星期)錄得ctDNA完全下降，亦同樣能夠比電腦斷層掃描觀察更早一步預判成效。748Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5aglz7G1Fv
748Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ73uTo904RM
而研究中有45名免疫治療的病人在初期沒有錄得任何的ctDNA跌幅，癌細胞的體積在其後亦沒有明顯縮細。748Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf7rPHxOUOY
748Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8k49ICFwMt
748Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOSfLVnUgeq
對比含放射性的電腦斷層掃描，量度血液的ctDNA只需抽取病人的血液便可，明顯簡單且快捷。748Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcfJ5vbMH7o
只不過每名病人的ctDNA排組均不一樣，先前需要拿取部份癌細胞組織，才能夠有效設計檢測ctDNA的方針。748Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiw8WbYX6Qr
748Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1y0YlJBeNU
無論如何，若然日後能有研究進一步確立此方法的成效及可信性，定必大可增加對抗癌症的效益。748Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7MDdCLu7rH
748Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcrusHit4Zy
另一方面，透過檢測血液的DNA來預先得知癌細胞的存在，亦是日後檢驗及預防癌症的主流大方向。748Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNBAKJEAgi4
