Abstract

Limited response to idiotype vaccination in patients with myeloma suggests that there is a need to develop better immunotherapy strategies. It has been determined that the number of high-potency CMRF44+CD14−CD19−dendritic cells (DCs) in the blood of patients with myeloma (range, 0.03%-0.8% of mononuclear cells [MNCs]; n = 26) was not significantly different from that in controls (range, 0.05%-0.8% of MNCs; n = 13). Expression of the costimulatory molecules CD80 and CD86 on DCs from these patients (mean, 29%±17% of MNCs and 85%±10% of MNCs, respectively) was also normal (mean, 29%±17% and 86%±16% of MNCs, respectively). Up-regulation of CD80 expression in response to stimulation by human (hu)CD40LT + interleukin (IL)-2 was significantly reduced on the DCs of patients with myeloma during stable disease (n = 9) and was absent during progressive stages (n = 7) of disease. Similar effects were seen on B cells but not on monocytes of the same group of patients. CD86 expression on DCs was high before (86%) and after (89%) stimulation. Inhibition of CD80 up-regulation was neutralized by either anti–transforming growth factor (TGF)–β1 or anti–IL-10. Up-regulation of CD80 on DCs of controls was inhibited by rTGF-β1 in a dose-dependent manner. Serum TGF-β1 and IL-10 levels were normal in most patients studied. Cytoplasmic TGF-β1 was increased in plasma cells during progressive disease. Thus patients with myeloma have normal numbers of DCs, but CD80 expression may fail to be up-regulated in the presence of huCD40LT because of tumor-derived TGF-β1 or IL-10. Autologous high-potency DCs may have to be tested for CD80 up-regulation and biologically modified ex vivo before idiotype priming for immunotherapy.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
