Significant clinical response of advanced colorectal cancer to combination therapy involving capecitabine and adoptive cell transfer therapy: a case report

Colorectal cancer (CRC) remains the fourth common cause of death. Because of the low examination rate for colonoscopy, many patients are diagnosed as advanced CRC. Presently, with systematic treatment including surgery, chemotherapy and radiation therapy, more and more patients are cured. While patients with advanced CRC, some with metastasis especially, still don’t have effective treatment (1). It is said that Asian and Pacific Islander has the highest overall 5-year survival rates. The 5-year survival rates for patients with a local stage CRC is 92.3%. Survival declines to 74.3% and 15.7% for patients diagnosed as regional and distant stage, respectively (2)
