Reevaluating the Concept of Treating Experimental Tumors with a Mixed Bacterial Vaccine: Coley's Toxin Several decades after Coley's initial work, we here systematically analyzed tumoricidal as well as immunostimulatory effects of the historical preparation Coley's Toxin (CT), a safe vaccine made of heat-inactivated S. pyogenes and S. marcescens. First, by performing in vitro analysis

Addressing the Adult Soft Tissue Sarcoma Microenvironment with Intratumoral Immunotherapy Sarcoma is comprised of a heterogeneous group of tumors originating from the mesenchyme. Sarcoma is also the first tumor that responded to immunotherapeutic agents often termed as "Coley's toxins." However, immunotherapy is yet to establish its presence in sarcomas. Complex interactions between tumor

bacteria known as "Coley's toxins." Unfortunately, Coley was forced to stop his work which interrupted this field for about half a century. Currently, several species of bacteria are being developed against cancer. The bacterial species, their genetic background and their infectious behavior within the tumor microenvironment are thought to be relevant factors in determining their anti-tumor effectiveness

Pathogens and glioma: a history of unexpected discoveries ushering in novel therapy. In the late 19th century, Dr. William B. Coley introduced the theory that infections may aid in the treatment of malignancy. With the creation of Coley's toxin, reports of remission during viral illnesses for systemic malignancies soon emerged. A few decades after this initial discovery, Austrian physicians

Spontaneous regression of tumour and the role of microbial infection – possibilities for cancer treatment This review deals with the role of microorganisms in spontaneous regression of a tumour. Spontaneous cancer regression is a phenomenon that has been described for many centuries. One of the most well known methods of inducing spontaneous regression of cancer is the application of Coley's toxin (heat-killed Streptococcus pyogenes and Serratia marcescens), which has been used for the successful treatment of sarcomas, carcinomas, lymphomas, myelomas and melanomas. In clinical practice, the use of Bacillus Calmette-Guérin vaccine for the treatment of superficial urinary bladder cancer is the most common instance of the application of microorganisms for the treatment of cancer.

eventually termed “Coley toxins” and were administered to patients with cancer. In some cases (albeit relatively infrequently), dramatic antitumor effects were observed. Ewing sarcoma was one of the tumors in which Coley observed antitumor responses using this approach. [10, 12] During the same period in which Coley was observing dramatic tumor responses with Coley toxins, the spectacular radiosensitivity of Ewing sarcoma was observed by James Ewing, MD, the physician-in-chief at Memorial Hospital. This led to a rivalry between advocates of immunotherapy (in the form of Coley toxins) and advocates of radiotherapy (such as Ewing). [11] For various reasons, not the least of which was difficulty in standardizing the toxins, immunotherapy was eventually abandoned in favor of cytotoxic radiotherapy, a legacy

triggered the clinical investigation of the use of heat-killed bacteria as therapeutic agents (Coley's toxin), which induced complete responses in patients in the pre-chemotherapy era and is now known to mediate substantial elevations in serum TNF levels. We designed and developed a novel immunocytokine based on murine TNF sequentially fused to the antibody fragment F8 (specific to extra-domain

Within the preparation's first decade, it was changed from an unfiltered mixture of killed bacteria to a porcelain-filtered mixture,[4] which reduced the adverse effect profile.[4] From 1923 on, Parke-Davis was the only commercial source
