Intervention Name(s)
Tumor infiltrating lymphocyte
Intervention Description
Tumor infiltrating lymphocytes were isolated from tumor tissues from tumor biopsy or operation. These TILs were cultured in human IL-2 medium for 4 to 5 weeks. 10e9 to 10e10 TILs were yielded. The phenotype, function and sterile were detected before these TILs infused patients.
