What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. The changes of peripheral blood immune cells

    The flow cytometric analysis of lymphocyte subtypes populations would be performed

    Time frame: 6 weeks (prior and post the radiation therapy )

Secondary outcomes

  1. Activation status of T cells

    Activation status of peripheral IFN-γ-producing effector CD8+ T cells by Elispot.

    Time frame: 6 weeks (prior and post the radiation therapy )

  2. The changs of inflammatory cytokines and chemokines

    Human inflammatory cytokines and chemokines will be analyzed by ELISA during radiation therapy. The cytokines and chemokines are IL-2, IL-10, IFN-γ, TNF-α

    Time frame: 6 weeks (prior and post the radiation therapy )
