Abstract

A new immunotherapy for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) using Freund's adjuvant and recombinant interleukin-2 (IL-2) combined with conventional transarterial chemoembolization therapy was performed. In 16 patients with HCC and one patient with metastatic liver cancer receiving this therapy, decrease and suppression of reelevation of alpha-fetoprotein after therapy was observed. Disappearance of tumor thrombi of HCC in the main portal vein was observed in a patient, and decrease of carcinoembryonic antigen was also observed in a patient with metastatic liver cancer. The present therapy using Freund's adjuvant and IL-2 is likely to open a new avenue for the treatment of patients with advanced liver cancer.
