Description:
The effect of anti-tumor treatment is not satisfying in HBV-related hepatocellular carcinoma
(HBV-HCC) for reasons that HBV-HCC carries highly heterogeneous antigens to facilitate cancer
cells escaping from immune surveillance and constructs an immunosuppressive microenvironment.
Correspondingly, multiple signals loaded dendritic cells vaccine can efficiently present T
cells with antigens of HCC sensitize their antitumor properties meanwhile low dose
cyclophosphamide (CY) can effectively improve the microenvironment of immunity. Therefore, we
put forward a new scientific therapy called "multiple signals loaded dendritic cells vaccine
combined low dose of cyclophosphamide" combining with radical surgery or TACE or targeted
agents for patients with hepatocellular carcinoma to prolong their survival time.

Purpose
The effect of anti-tumor treatment is not satisfying in HBV-related hepatocellular carcinoma
(HBV-HCC) for reasons that HBV-HCC carries highly heterogeneous antigens to facilitate cancer
cells escaping from immune surveillance and constructs an immunosuppressive microenvironment.
Correspondingly, multiple signals loaded dendritic cells vaccine can efficiently present T

cyclophosphamide (CY) can effectively improve the microenvironment of immunity. Therefore, we
put forward a new scientific therapy called "multiple signals loaded dendritic cells vaccine

agents for patients with hepatocellular carcinoma to prolong their survival time.
Detailed Description
Detailed Description Patients who have good compliance complying with the inclusion criteria
will be enrolled into our research. The 600 patients will be randomly assigned to
experimental group and control group with the ratio of 1:1, control group will receive
radical surgery or TACE or targeted agent treatment solely; another group (experimental
group) after enrollment will radical surgery or TACE or targeted agent treatment in the first
course. Then 20ml blood is taken for multiple signals loaded dendritic cells (MSDCV) culture
(cell culture takes 7 days). Low dose (250mg/m^2) CY treatment will be performed on patients
two days before the MSDCV treatment. The MSDCV combined CY therapy will perform per 4 weeks,
total 6 times. All patients are evaluated the safety and efficacy of treatment by monitoring
their blood parameters, tumor indicators and imaging examinations at each visit.
