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。994Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF5J69tjRuT

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。994Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2JUQhdqS0x

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。994Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSk1Q82TlWM

（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。994Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPftHLEcuzA

994Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWlQfvpRcvZ
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。994Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpoYgT2QG3E
994Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh9KdsvKmNY
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)。994Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbkq4eyH5Zd

(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。994Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡww9DxSN2Nh
994Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvZp5qQOFUl
994Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR9zut2lux8
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，994Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJCRBXUD16l
因此血液會有癌細胞的DNA。994Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYHZnnx2CMN
994Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQz05RkPEYg
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。994Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7n8Y1K2rNE
994Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0IcqNryXdX
在這裡，我們暫稱癌細胞在血液中的DNA為ctDNA，Circulating Tumor DNA。994Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRPM2oLPYcq

（圖4）圖中為利用阻擋PD1的抗體Pembrolizumab作治療的兩名病人結果。994Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdJiEaCzUBs

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。994Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEhTn4BZFef
994Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcglEaH2adR
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。994Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAUV8vM2Q0f
994Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4tW4D7xlSM
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。994Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdFVv5z0OSW
994Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB0mL49Mgr8
994Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmayZU6PDG9
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。994Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN4fHilCqF4
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。994Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqURpi9Ik62
994Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRn4TiwkM3G
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。994Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFTT0fKLI4n
994Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9aJvZnez3f
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。994Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHetU7lnqFL
