“…We proposed the development of following methods for modulation of the different key regulation points, and their appropriate combinations for effective cancer immunotherapy (Kawakami et al 2013b ) (Fig. 20.2 ): (1) We have been working on these immune-modulating methods, including the identifi cation of better tumor antigens (e.g., SOX6, mutant BRAF) (Ueda et al 2004(Ueda et al , 2010, DC-stimulating new adjuvants [e.g., Mycobacterium bovis Bacillus Calmette-Guérin-cell wall skeleton (BCG-CWS)] (Udagawa et al 2006 ), oncolytic herpes simplex virus (HSV) (Toda et al 2002 ;Ohkusu-Tsukada et al 2011 ), new TLR-stimulating compounds, cultured anti-tumor T cells (e.g., anti-tumor TILs, new TCR/CAR transduced T cells), various molecular-targeted drugs which act on both cancer cells, and activating and inhibiting immune cells Yaguchi et al 2012 ;Kudo-Saito et al 2012 ;Nishio et al 2014 ;Sumimoto et al 2006 ). We have previously reported that mutant BRAF depletion not only inhibits cell proliferation and invasion of human melanoma cells, but also inhibits production of multiple immunosuppressive cytokines such as IL-10, IL-6, and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF).…”
