Purpose of the Immune Frame Test
- Provides a baseline immune status before starting RGCC cellular therapy.
- Screens for high-risk markers that may impact therapy effectiveness.
- It helps in monitoring immune response post-therapy every 6 months.
Pre-Therapy Testing Requirements
- Order within 3 months of planned cellular therapy.
- A CTC test is also required within the same timeframe.
- Identifies immune markers using ELISA and flow cytometry
Key Markers to Monitor
-
Markers to Lower (Negative Indicators):
-
TNF-a (Tumor Necrosis Factor-alpha): Should be as low as possible.
- High TNF-a can be managed with:
- Curcumin, EGCG (Green Tea), Resveratrol, Vitamin D3, Fish Oil, Magnesium, Ashwagandha, and Tart Cherry Juice.
-
Tregs (CD25, CTLA4): High levels indicate immune suppression.
- Can be improved with:
- Probiotics (e.g., Lactobacillus, Bifidobacterium), Fish Oil, Flavonoids, Vitamin D3, Ginger, and a Gluten-Free Diet.
- Can be improved with:
- High TNF-a can be managed with:
-
TNF-a (Tumor Necrosis Factor-alpha): Should be as low as possible.
-
Markers to Increase (Positive Indicators):
-
IL-2, IL-4, IL-6: Boost immune activation.
- Supported by Melatonin, Mushroom Extracts, Vitamin C, Zinc, and Magnesium.
-
INF-γ (Interferon Gamma): Enhances immune response.
- It can be improved using homeopathic Citomix (GUNA).
- CD80/CD86/CD28: Key immune memory markers should gradually increase post-therapy.
-
IL-2, IL-4, IL-6: Boost immune activation.
Post-Therapy Monitoring
- Frequency: Every 6 months to track immune system improvement.
- Goal:
- Decrease TNF-a and
- Increase CD80/CD86 (>15% target), CD28 (>2.0 target).
- If CD80/86 levels reach >22, it indicates optimal immune response.
What is VAXO-Q-RE Therapy?
VAXO-Q-RE is an Autologous Adoptive Cellular Therapy designed to enhance the body's natural immune response to cancer. It uses a patient’s immune cells, including:
- Innate immunity: Macrophages and Natural Killer (NK) cells
- Adaptive immunity: Dendritic cells (DCs), Cytotoxic T-cells (CTLs), and plasma cells
How Does VAXO-Q-RE Work?
- Blood is drawn from the patient.
- Immune cells are isolated and expanded in the lab.
- Adaptive immune cells are activated using personalized tumor antigens.
- The prepared immune cells are infused back into the patient to fight cancer.
Who is Eligible for VAXO-Q-RE?
Suitable for:
- Solid tumors (all stages but primarily grade 2B or higher)
- Patients with stable disease who are not undergoing chemotherapy or radiation
Not suitable for:
- Central Nervous System cancers (due to the blood-brain barrier)
- Patients currently on chemotherapy, radiation, or immunosuppressants
- Individuals under 18 years old
- Pregnant or breastfeeding individuals
- Patients with active autoimmune diseases, infections, or cachexia
Pre-Therapy Requirements
-
Mandatory Pre-tests:
- Immune Frame (baseline immune status)
- Oncotrace (circulating tumor cell count)
-
Avoid the following prior to therapy:
- Cytotoxic therapies (e.g., chemotherapy, radiation)
- Immune-suppressing medications (at least 14 days)
- Blood transfusions (at least 120 days)
Treatment Schedule
-
Timeline: Three doses over 30 days
- Day 0: 1st dose (Macrophages and NK cells)
- Day 15: 2nd dose (APCs, CTLs, plasma cells)
- Day 30: 3rd dose (based on patient needs)
-
Follow-up tests:
- Day 120: Immune Frame & Oncotrace
- Day 210: Immune Frame & Oncotrace
Post-Therapy Recommendations
- Avoid cytotoxic and immune-suppressing treatments for 120 days after the final dose.
- Follow-up immune testing at 6-month intervals is recommended.
- If therapy response is insufficient, a booster dose may be recommended.
Expected Outcomes
- Increased immune response (CD80 >15%, CD86 >10%, CD28 >0)
- Long-term memory cell development for sustained immune protection
Possible Side Effects
- Flu-like symptoms
- Fatigue
- Fever
- Injection site reactions
- Tumor Lysis Syndrome (in cases with large tumor volume)
