Novel antibodies in the treatment of non-Hodgkin s lymphoma Bhat SA; Czuczman MSNeth J Med 2009[Sep]; 67 (8): 311-21Monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) have revolutionised the treatment of malignancies, especially non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL). Antibody-based therapies target tumour cells expressing a specific antigen while sparing the majority of normal cells leading to a decrease in treatment-associated toxicity. Rituximab, a monoclonal antibody directed against CD20 on B cells, was the first monoclonal antibody to be approved by the US Food and Drug Association (FDA) in 1997 for the treatment of patients with relapsed/refractory, follicular or low-grade NHL . However, it was soon realised that not all patients respond to rituximab therapy and close to 60% of patients with follicular lymphoma who were previously sensitive to rituximab become 'resistant' to repeat rituximab therapy. This led to further attempts to improve the antitumour activity of anti-CD20 mAbs (i.e. 2nd/3rd generation anti-CD20s), and to identify additional potential targets on lymphoma cells other than CD20. A number of these antibodies directed against lymphoma cell targets other than CD20 are now undergoing development, many of which are currently in clinical trials.
