Relapsed follicular lymphoma sequentially treated with rituximab and 90Y-ibritumomab tiuxetan. Case report.
BACKGROUND Monoclonal antibodies have dramatically changed the treatment possibilities for follicular lymphoma. (90)Y-ibritumomab tiuxetan (Zevalin) is the first radioimmunotherapy agent approved for the treatment of relapsed and resistant follicular lymphoma patients. Long-term benefit was observed especially for patients achieving CR after radioimmunotherapy. METHODS AND RESULTS A 65-year-o...
متن کاملEANM procedure guideline of radio-immunotherapy for B-cell lymphoma with 90Y-radiolabeled ibritumomab tiuxetan (Zevalin®)
EMEA has approved Y-radiolabelled ibritumomab tiuxetan, Zevalin, in Europe for the treatment of adult patients with rituximab-relapsed or -refractory CD20+ follicular Bcell non-Hodgkin ́s lymphoma (NHL) in January 2004. The number of European nuclear medicine departments using Zevalin is continuously increasing, since the therapy is often considered successful. The Therapy-, the Oncologyand the ...
متن کاملIbritumomab tiuxetan radioimmunotherapy for patients with relapsed or refractory non-Hodgkin lymphoma and mild thrombocytopenia: a phase II multicenter trial.
Mildly thrombocytopenic patients with relapsed or refractory low-grade non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) have an increased risk of chemotherapy-induced myelosuppression following treatment. The safety and efficacy of radioimmunotherapy with a reduced dose of (90)Y ibritumomab tiuxetan (0.3 mCi/kg [11 MBq/kg]; maximum 32 mCi [1.2 GBq]) was evaluated in 30 patients with mild thrombocytopenia (100-149 x ...
متن کاملRadioimmunotherapy with yttrium-90 ibritumomab tiuxetan for patients with relapsed CD20+ B-cell non-Hodgkin's lymphoma.
The clinical development and US Food and Drug Administration approval in 1997 of the monoclonal anti-CD20 antibody rituximab have been major treatment advances for patients with B-cell non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL). Rituximab produces responses in approximately 50% of cases of relapsed, low grade NHL. Most of these responses are partial remissions; cure remains elusive. One way to enhance the ef...
متن کاملAccurate dose calibrator activity measurement of 90Y-ibritumomab tiuxetan.
UNLABELLED This investigation examined the accuracy of dose calibrator activity measurement of the beta-emitting radiopharmaceutical (90)Y-ibritumomab tiuxetan. METHODS Five different facilities independently measured (90)Y in a 10-mL syringe geometry with 30 dose calibrator models from 3 different manufacturers. The activities ranged from 81.4 MBq (2.2 mCi) to 1,406 MBq (38 mCi) over the vol...
