METHOD FOR PRODUCING MEDICINAL COMPOSITION

摘要

The purpose of the present invention is to produce a highly safe and reliable medicinal composition which exerts a more remarkable therapeutic effect caused by an antitumor activity that is acquired by efficiently enhancing the nonspecific immunity of antigen-presenting cells such as dendritic cells. Disclosed is a method for producing a medicinal composition which contains, as the active ingredient, antigen-presenting cells having an antitumor activity, said method comprising an exposure step for exposing the antigen-presenting cells to an activating solution containing a baculovirus, and a separation step for separating the antigen-presenting cells from the activating solution. A remarkable therapeutic effect is expected from the administration of a medicinal composition that is produced by the aforesaid method.
