Combination immunotherapy of B-cell non-Hodgkin's lymphoma with rituximab and interleukin-2: a preclinical and phase I study.
PURPOSE Cytokine-induced modulation of innate immunity is being explored to enhance the activity of monoclonal antibodies. Severe combined immunodeficient (SCID) mice engrafted with peripheral blood leukocytes (PBLs) from Epstein Barr virus-seropositive donors develop human B-cell non-Hodgkin's lymphomas [B-NHLs (hu-PBL-SCID mouse model)]. We used this hu-PBL-SCID mouse model to study the syner...
متن کاملA phase 2 study of rituximab in combination with recombinant interleukin-2 for rituximab-refractory indolent non-Hodgkin's lymphoma.
PURPOSE The incidence of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL), the fifth most common malignancy in the United States, has increased over 70% in the last 30 years. Fifty percent to 75% of patients with low-grade or follicular NHL respond to rituximab therapy. However, responses are generally of limited duration, and complete responses are rare. Preclinical work suggests that human recombinant interleuki...
متن کاملPhase 1 study of interleukin-12 in combination with rituximab in patients with B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma.
Rituximab is a chimeric murine/human monoclonal antibody that binds to CD20 on B lymphocytes. Although binding of the Fab domain may induce apoptosis, the Fc domain recruits immune effector functions to mediate cell lysis. Interleukin-12 (IL-12) facilitates cytolytic T-cell responses, enhances the lytic activity of natural killer (NK) cells, and induces the secretion of interferon gamma (IFN-ga...
متن کاملDevelopment of DOTA-Rituximab kit formulation to be labeled with 90Y for radioimmunotherapy of B-cell Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma
NHL is the most common hematologic cancer in adults. Rituximab is the FDA approved treatment of relapsed or refractory low grade B-cell Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma (NHL). But patients eventually become resistant to rituximab. Since lymphocytes and lymphoma cells are highly radiosensitive, low grade NHL that has relapsed or refractory to standard therapy is treated by RIT in which a beta-emitting radio...
متن کاملSmall B cell Non-Hodgkins Lymphoma in Pakistan.
OBJECTIVE To study the pattern of small B cell lymphomas in Pakistan. METHODS This descriptive study was carried out at the Aga Khan University Hospital pathology department including 1721 cases of Non-Hodgkins Lymphoma (NHL) diagnosed during a period of five years (1998-2002) and classified according to REAL/WHO classification. The antibodies used included Leukocyte Common Antigen (LCA), Pan...
