Prognostic significance of tumor-infiltrating T-lymphocytes in primary and metastatic lesions of advanced stage ovarian cancer
2009
Purpose
Ovarian cancer patients with intra-tumoral CD3+ T-lymphocytes in primary tumor tissue have a better prognosis. This study aims to analyze the presence and relative influence of three important T-lymphocyte subsets, tumor-infiltrating CD8+ cytotoxic T-lymphocytes (CTL), CD45R0+ memory T-lymphocytes, and FoxP3+ regulatory T-lymphocytes (Treg), in primary tumor tissue and omental metastases of patients with ovarian cancer.
