以免疫治療(Immunotherapy)手段醫治癌症，絕對是人類在醫學界踏出的「月球一小步」;2131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz7tycjSwdn
2018年的醫學諾貝爾得獎者，亦是因為對免疫治療方面作出了無比重要的貢獻因而獲獎。2131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8gbEpstAqH

對比傳統的化療，免疫治療不但不會引起脫髮等副作用，病人的存活率更會比傳統化療的顯著為長，但略為遺憾的是並不是所有人及所有的癌症也能從免疫治療中獲益。2131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUFZ4ocyIlY
2131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4Rs5Mak61V
今次的深入淺出，將會為大家講解免疫治療的原理及解釋箇中的好處。2131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC6Pikf63DX
2131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGXx8JT8MrH
（圖1）正常細胞(Normal Cell)進行繁殖的時候，無可避免會出現DNA變異。我們的細胞雖有著完善的機制可即時修正錯誤，但隨著年紀歲數的增長，修正DNA錯誤的效率亦會相對減低，最終造就DNA出現變異。2131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN0DlOMjxHa
2131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK9coWlYxo7
2131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJV1Uagumm1
而當細胞DNA出現變異後，我們的免疫細胞T cell會將其視作為外來物，把變異細胞殲滅。2131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH8NXbWhLSY
2131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWO6yIpq5yP
可是，若然變異細胞發展出躲避免疫系統的機制，而又累積一定程度的基因變異，便會獲得無驅無束般繁殖的能力，形成腫瘤。2131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIaxmuJQGSU
2131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡshGXQTKgQw
（圖2）癌細胞躲避免疫系統機制的方法有很多種，較為常見的是PD1（Programmed cell death protein1)系統。2131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡefkKbZK714
2131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzYrmCfO1yU
2131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpQQ4JGzPsY
2131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5qhFD27esj
我們的T cell會依靠癌細胞與別不同的蛋白質（Neoantigen)來作出辨認，並將變異細胞殲滅。2131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC1hFG4Milv
2131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ37Z1whACRz
但是若果變異細胞的表面產生名為PDL1的蛋白質，它便能夠與T Cell的PD1作出合併，因此觸發一系列的機制，大幅度銳弱T cell殺滅變異細胞的能力，導致T cell再也不能消滅自己。2131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDdYrL5Wuhk
2131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYVtk9C259T
形象化的來說，若果癌細胞穿上「我愛警察」的衣服（PDL1)後，擁有PD1警棍的黑警便會立刻手軟，放生癌細胞離開，讓癌細胞繼續任意妄為。2131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8SNhBGnZ28
2131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjk0N7WZ2Hx
換句話說，癌細胞只要能夠產生PDL1，就能夠逃避T cell的追捕及殺滅;2131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNe8Gbs0NYP
相對上，皮膚癌及肺癌的癌細胞較大機會出現PDL1。2131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbP2MmPbM06
2131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU44wmjSrma
2131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXWdBA5aEQY
（圖3）既然了解得到PDL1/PD1的關係，那麼對付的方法顯然變得非常簡單，只要把對應的抗體送到體內，阻截PDL1及PD1合併便可。2131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV9zxCFe4lU
2131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7TBmsjXD6y
2131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiycmRZMqwC
2131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEVtli3i7Yu
以下為現今運用在治療中及臨床研究中的抗體整理。2131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHPn0rtGIya
2131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjn9m9LRrlS
阻擋PD1的抗體:2131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNJTsTgE2ek
1.Nivolumab (FDA approved)2131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdguXt1tRt5
2.Pembrolizumab (FDA approved)2131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEEih9Pwi9M
3.Pidilizumab2131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB4ekcCtNY8
4.MEDI-06802131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBCPVBpu2uM
4.PDR0012131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHjRtrQlrsg
5.REGN28102131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTqbNVFIQ3q
2131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqq1OkzpdYg
阻擋PDL1的抗體:2131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡelsEf0aONr
1.Atezolimumab2131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3KHBtjCTKe
2.Durvalumab2131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8aXgkvpugb
3.Avelumab2131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyDsHZepGHp
4.MDX-11052131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6BcbgmYkMs
2131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRZavPdLGqo
2131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEddVciYSG2
簡單來說，就是利用抗體來阻截PD1/PDL1，促使癌細胞無法逃避免疫細胞的追捕，被迫接收免疫細胞的制裁。2131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdHGpf1Kc3P
2131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpQcRsnLRR3
2131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAhoHKOQxSj
（圖4）為突顯Immunotherapy（免疫系統治療）的好處，我們可以找一個Chemotherapy(化療)的例子作出比較。2131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡinMbmfXj2F
2131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3SG4ihkbm4
2131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡagd0lwdOTZ
針對癌細胞出現X變異，我們便用上針對X變異的化療藥物醫治。2131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbHqwBFwWcc
2131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy7eRv4Ocl5
在初期，此方法可能會有奇效，但是隨著時間推進，沒有死去的話癌細胞便會發展出不同抗藥機制，導致藥物失效。2131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQyVcfQlWj6
2131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrXuGJ9z8sa
譬如說，X變異變成Y變異，導致只針對X變異的藥物再也沒能針對自己。2131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYKbrv0YTLA
2131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡusLN5CfdwK
又或者，癌細胞會產生蛋白質將藥物帶出細胞外，現今有著不同真實例子顯示出還有各種不同的機制，在這裡不便詳列。2131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCHQbFVLUDE
2131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvIgeG3ihSN
（圖5）但是，在免疫系統治療方面來說，無論癌細胞如何變異也好，它們始終亦會被T cell界定為外來之物，成為被殲滅的目標。2131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEvMuxfT4CA
甚之乎，越多的變異反而會更容易令T cell被認出為外來之物，更易被成為T cell的目標。2131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe6PSWKLJI2
2131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfMGdgpPmd9
2131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9OXNdZqChB
2131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj0lOsAheU8
在這裡，我們可以看得出免疫治療的精髓所在。2131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL61yA2d2uv
2131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnvYaQHvWux
免疫治療的方針並不是在針對癌細胞自身，而是針對癌細胞逃避免疫系統細胞的機制。2131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxnIE7lHqs2
2131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJWsILCRZkU
在此，我們只是讓免疫系統回復正常運作，糾正它們懂得把癌細胞辨認為外來物，並把外來物消除。2131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj18Gaboq6S
2131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3C94DKkD3F
這方法根本上沒有額外改動身體的機制，有部份病人可能會出現輕微作嘔感覺，但大部份人士並不會遭受脫髮、食慾不振、手軟腳軟、血球細胞出現問題等等會在化療時候遭受得到的副作用！2131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSGtR1aTXid
2131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDzykUd0AAS
2131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqs9gvfvvv9
只不過的是，普遍來說一整個免疫治療至少需要美金150,000才能進行，而且若然癌細胞並沒有產生大量PDL1的話，這方法亦不會太過有效。2131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgwR5myYhcx
2131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDZnKWs9noD
對此，現時科學家亦研發出不同手段針對這個問題，若然大家對這話題有興趣的話，請正評以及回覆此Post，我會視乎反應寫出下集講解現時免疫治療的最新發展、成果及所面對著的問題。2131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh6C4EI8W9h
2131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbCqFfLlwsn
希望大家看完這篇文章後，會領略得到免疫治療的原理及與化療手段的根本性分別。2131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVuMtmDiNko
