Long-term efficacy and toxicity results of the FLUMIZ trial (fludarabine and mitoxantrone followed by yttrium-90 ibritumomab tiuxetan in untreated follicular lymphoma).
The radiosensitivity of lymphomas as well as the local targeted delivery of high doses of radiation make radioimmunotherapy (RIT) an attractive therapeutic option. RIT is indeed an underestimated tool. In follicular lymphoma (FL), RIT represents one of the most effective single agents. The two most commonly used radioimmunoconjugates are Y-ibritumomab tiuxetan (Zevalin ) and I-tositumomab, both...
متن کامل90‐yttrium‐ibritumomab tiuxetan consolidation of fludarabine, mitoxantrone, rituximab in intermediate/high‐risk follicular lymphoma: updated long‐term results after a median follow‐up of 7 years
Radioimmunotherapy (RIT) after an induction phase with conventional chemoimmunotherapy became an attractive strategy of consolidation for patients with advanced follicular lymphoma: in particular, in many studies RIT was represented by yttrium-90-ibritumomab tiuxetan ((90) Y-IT). Independently by the different front-line treatment, updates on the long-term follow-up of these studies are needed ...
متن کاملLong term efficacy and safety of Fludarabine, Cyclophosphamide and Rituximab regimen followed by 90Y-ibritumomab tiuxetan consolidation for the treatment of relapsed grades 1 and 2 follicular lymphoma
BACKGROUND In this retrospective study, we investigated the efficacy and safety of radioimmunotherapy with (90)Yttrium- ibritumomab tiuxetan ((90)Y-RIT) in 9 patients with recurrent follicular lymphoma (FL) who were treated in a consolidation setting after having achieved complete (CR) or partial remission (PR) with Fludarabine, Cyclophosphamide and Rituximab (FCR). METHODS The median age was...
متن کاملRadioimmunotherapy for non-Hodgkin's lymphoma with yttrium 90 ibritumomab tiuxetan.
The increasing incidence of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL), coupled with the lack of optimal treatment options, has prompted the development of novel treatments. Of these, radioimmunotherapy is one of the most promising. Two of the radiolabeled monoclonal antibody therapies being studied in the treatment of NHL are yttrium 90 (90Y) ibritumomab tiuxetan and iodine 131 (131I) tositumomab. The radio...
