PURPOSE: The CD20 antigen is expressed on more than 90% of B-cell
lymphomas. It is appealing for targeted therapy, because it does not shed
or modulate. A chimeric monoclonal antibody more effectively mediates host
effector functions and is itself less immunogenic than are murine
antibodies. PATIENTS AND METHODS: This was a multiinstitutional trial of
the chimeric anti-CD20 antibody, IDEC-C2B8. Patients with relapsed low
grade or follicular lymphoma received an outpatient treatment course of
IDEC-C2B8 375 mg/m2 intravenously weekly for four doses. RESULTS: From 31
centers, 166 patients were entered. Of this intent-to-treat group, 48%
responded. With a median follow-up duration of 11.8 months, the projected
median time to progression for responders is 13.0 months. Serum antibody
levels were sustained longer after the fourth infusion than after the
first, and were higher in responders and in patients with lower tumor
burden. The majority of adverse events occurred during the first infusion
and were grade 1 or 2; fever and chills were the most common events. Only
12% of patients had grade 3 and 3% grade 4 toxicities. A human antichimeric
antibody was detected in only one patient. CONCLUSION: The response rate of
48% with IDEC-C2B8 is comparable to results with single-agent cytotoxic
chemotherapy. Toxicity was mild. Attention needs to be paid to the rate of
antibody infusion, with titration according to toxicity. Further
investigation of this agent is warranted, including its use in conjunction
with standard chemotherapy.
