Background There is growing interest bt the use of dendritic cells (DCs) for treatment of malignancy and infectious disease Our goal was to develop a clinical-scale method to prepare autologous DCs for cancer clinical trials Methods PBMC were collected from normal donors or cancer patients by automated leukapheresis, purified by counterflow centrifugal elutriation and placed into culture in polystyrene flasks at 1 X 10(6) cells/mL for 5-7 days at 37 degreesC, with 5% CO2, with IL-4 and GM-CSF. Conditions investigated included media formulation, supplementation with heat-inactivated allogeneic AB serum or autologous plasma and time to harvest (Day 5 or Day 7). DCs were evaluated for morphology, quantitative yield viability phenotype and function, including mixed leukocyte response and recall response to tetanus toroid and influenza virus. Results DCs with a typical immature phenotype (CD14-negative, CD1a-positive, mannose receptor-positive, CD80-positive, CD83-negntive) were generated most consistently in RPMI 1640 supplemented with 10% allogeneic AB serum or 10% autologous plasma. Cell yield was higher at Day 5 than Day 7, without detectable differences in phenotype or function. In pediatric sarcoma patients autologous DCs bad enhanced function compared with monocytes from which they were generated. In this patient group, starting with 8.0 +/- 3.7 x 10(8 fr)esh or cryopreserved autologous monocytes, DC yield was 2.1 +/- 1.0 x 10(8) cells, or 29% of the starting monocyte number: Discussion In the optimized clinical-scale method, purified peripheral monocytes are cultured for 5 days in flasks at 1 X 10(6) cells/mL in RPMI 1640, 10% allogeneic AB serum or autologous plasma, IL-4 and CM-CSF: This method avoids the use of FBS and results in in immature DCs suitable for clinical trials.
