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」;2149Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKvRwoI5cNB
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。2149Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs2aUNpA58v

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。2149Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjZJLwzj3NG
2149Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYNbBLBdxxN
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。2149Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2cJtKR9xmy
2149Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfbB4lckkVU
（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。2149Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqhkUmyvIXI
2149Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi1TzINrqNM
2149Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡriQQYNezj3
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。2149Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5jDjRobKQd
2149Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDgyfHjnbSS
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。2149Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOYAdWsnOZu
2149Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlYEMqktCtR
（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。2149Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZXJ5X4seno
2149Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp1aTp6ZwVn
2149Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1tRblD9s9N
2149Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbZYKGtBMf0
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。2149Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxnDyrM6XHB
2149Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgGpYYUfvBy
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。2149Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUH4MBNh2Dr
2149Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfmcj86r7cH
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。2149Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdNxCcHGwR6
2149Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOk4hkM3Kdq
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;2149Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCejsBjiBX5
相對上，皮膚癌及肺癌的癌細胞較大機會出現PDL1。2149Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMztYFJTFeN
2149Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGuwrfQApIp
2149Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAooWxBuNOv
（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。2149Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQERXYnzOlf

以下為現今運用在治療中及臨床研究中的抗體整理。2149Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3pDaLE2ts4
2149Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV9X2OuIR1e
阻擋PD1的抗體:2149Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9Y4uQxc8Rc
1.Nivolumab (FDA approved)2149Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwHgUQGeLZ4
2.Pembrolizumab (FDA approved)2149Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuEQavP6DVU
3.Pidilizumab2149Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ4pRzoVEOT

阻擋PDL1的抗體:2149Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJSdRl1yNK8
1.Atezolimumab2149Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmUCdYLuGhD
2.Durvalumab2149Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI2JNTfLGtM
3.Avelumab2149Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQvHBs01H2m

2149Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLcV5IXvg2C
2149Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk1V4yfRTuH
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。2149Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrDE8PRsjeY
2149Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYvWaMpaeBz
2149Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPj291XqQfN
（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。2149Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAyw7iRA7N1
2149Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtmcGqCw1yZ
2149Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx5Q70JIIXH
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。2149Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvy1hrlygqF
2149Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKiW4aKqrsb
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。2149Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3eHkuxQMxm
2149Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrmbZfDH5tU
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。2149Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNFbc48kj0f
2149Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsehX5gp7o2
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。2149Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBwuy2241JY
2149Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaXO4pXRL8Y
（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。2149Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1E8ZgUcJ3e
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。2149Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLLs5jjBVtt
2149Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwo7zHCaS8L
2149Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡila9SmjqiQ
2149Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwVBNM1Vtrz
在這裡，我們可以看得出免疫治療的精髓所在。2149Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQZy8EOmzv3
2149Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmfYOv5vrqV
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。2149Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZZwk2cjMyA
2149Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNktxM65rNj
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。2149Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzOWsSClUSH
2149Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK4swFoDNdt
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！2149Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgNSALrtivO
2149Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5aCVJQE80U
2149Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwAaBpHAXWL
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。2149Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYUvy6hHfYr
2149Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYhme4vSVvz
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。2149Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJe1rZS1PMx
2149Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7IhkOcYmgo
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。2149Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuYDTRS2J6G
