Fatal Melanoma Transferred in a Donated Kidney 16 years after Melanoma Surgery
» 1998: a woman died of a brain aneurysm, two kidneys were donated
» That female donor had a primary melanoma 16 years before sudden death (unrelated to melanoma diagnosis 16 years earlier)
» Melanoma was removed, with no residual tumor, followed in melanoma clinic for 15 years and was discharged, apparently tumor free, in 1997

Rationale for type I Interferon
» Breast cancer, melanoma and GI cancer patients show reduced IFN-α signaling in T and B cells, and reduced IFN- signaling in B cells.
» Early and persistent defect, independent from stage and chemotherapy.

Cytokine & Growth Factor Reviews 21: 227–236
IFN-alpha:
Increases Hematopoietic stem cell proliferation, increases pool of cells
Increased migration of immune cells
Increased cells in lymph nodes, activation of Dendritic cells to stimulate T cells
Activated Dendritic cells take up tumor antigen to stimulate T cells, IFN-also increases MHC on tumor cells

Fecal Microbiota Transplant
• Placement of fresh or frozen stool harvested from a healthy individual into the gastrointestinal tract of the recipient
• 4th century China Ge Hong, a famous Chinese Doctor prescribed human fecal suspension by mouth for food poisoning or severe diarrhea
• 16th century China, Ming dynasty, Li ShiZhen decribedthe use of fermented, fresh or dried feces (aka “yellow soup”) to treat severe diarrhea, pain, fever, vomiting and constipation in the medical text 本草綱(纲)目(Compendium of Medical Herbs)

'Final common pathway' of human cancer immunotherapy: targeting random somatic mutations
Nat Immunol. 2017 Feb 15;18(3):255-262.
Potential strategies for enhancing clinical responses to cancer neoantigens
» Use T cells recognizing neoepitopes for ACT
» Utilize TCRs recognizing neoepitopes in Tg TCR
» Combine above with other immune therapy
» Neoepitope/peptide therapeutic “vaccination”
Controlling the immune system is not as simple as driving a car
