Radioimmunotherapy 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 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...
متن کاملImaging and dosing in radioimmunotherapy with yttrium 90 ibritumomab tiuxetan (Zevalin).
Yttrium 90 ibritumomab tiuxetan consists of the murine monoclonal antibody ibritumomab securely bound to the second-generation chelator tiuxetan, which attaches the high-energy pure beta emitter (90)Y, for therapy, or the gamma emitter indium 111, for imaging. The biodistribution of the therapeutic dose of (90)Y ibritumomab tiuxetan can be predicted by using an imaging dose of the antibody labe...
متن کاملRadiation safety considerations with yttrium 90 ibritumomab tiuxetan (Zevalin).
Radioimmunotherapy is a recently approved treatment modality for non-Hodgkin's lymphoma that enables physicians to target cytotoxic localized radiation to tumor sites without using external-beam sources. Because it uses a pure beta emitter for therapy, (90)Y ibritumomab tiuxetan can be safely and routinely administered in an outpatient procedure, with few discharge instructions, and minimal ris...
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 ...
