Treatment of cd20+ cancer using anti-cd47 antibody
A recently granted patent (Publication Number: US11891450B2) outlines a method for effectively treating or reducing cancer burden in human subjects with Non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL) who are refractory to rituximab. The method involves administering a combination of anti-CD47 and anti-CD20 antibodies in specific dosages over two cycles, resulting in an overall response rate of at least 40%. The treatment protocol includes selecting refractory subjects, administering the antibodies over four weeks in each cycle, and potentially repeating the cycles until a clinical benefit is reduced or lost.
The patent also specifies that the method can be applied to various types of NHL, such as indolent lymphoma, follicular lymphoma (FL), or diffuse large B cell lymphoma (DLBCL), and to subjects who have relapsed or refractory to multiple prior lines of cancer therapy. The use of specific antibodies, including Hu5F9-G4 for anti-CD47 and rituximab for anti-CD20, is highlighted, along with the option to administer the antibodies concurrently or sequentially. Additionally, the patent details the dosages, administration routes, and potential adjustments based on the subjects' response to the treatment. Overall, the method described in the patent aims to provide an effective treatment option for refractory NHL patients, achieving a significant overall response rate while considering individual variations and clinical outcomes.
