Abstract

(Leukaemia derived) dendritic cells (DC, DCleu) are potent stimulators of anti-leukaemic activity in acute myeloid leukaemia (AML) and can be generated with immunomodulatory kits containing granulocyte-macrophage -colony-stimulating-factor (GM-CSF), prostaglandin-E-1 (PGE1), prostaglandin-E-2 (PGE2) and/or picibanil (OK -321). Potential adverse effects initiated through kits, especially the proliferation of blasts, must be ruled out to ensure treatment safety. We quantified proliferating blasts with the proliferation markers CD71 and Ki-67 and the novel proliferation marker IPO-38 before and after kit treatment ex vivo. IPO-38 hereby appeared to be the most sensitive marker;a combination with CD71 may add value when assessing proliferation kinetics. Kit treatment did not or only slightly (< 5%) induce blast proliferation in most cases. An induction of blast prolif-eration was only found in single cases and could be compensated by DCleu-induced anti-leukaemic activity in most times. Overall, we appraise kit treatment to be safe in vivo.
