Problems solved by technology

CD20 is expressed on more than 90% of B-cell non-Hodgkin's lymphomas (NHL) (Anderson, K.C. et al., Blood 63 (1984) 1424-1433), but is expressed on hematopoietic stem cells, pro-B cells, normal Not found on plasma cells, or other normal tissues (Tedder, T.F. et al., J, Immunol. 135 (1985) 973-979)

[0175] Characterization of Applied Tumor Cell Lines

[0176] The following non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) cell lines were used in the experiments: Granta-519, HBL-2, Rec-1, and Z-138 as mantle cell lymphoma cell lines and Karpas-422 as diffuse large B-cell lymphoma cell lines tumor cell lines. All cell lines were obtained from "Deutsche Sammlung von Mikroorganismen und Zellkulturen GmbH" (DSMZ), Braunschweig, Germany.

[0177] Cell Culture Conditions:

[0178] All cell lines were stored according to standard protocols and stored at 37°C, 5% CO 2 and 95% relative humidity in CO 2 cultured in an incubator. Granta 519, HBL-2, JeKo-1, Rec-1 and Z-138 were cultured in RPMI-1640 medium with 10% heat-inactivated FCS and 1% penicillin / streptomycin....

Abstract

The present invention is directed to the combination therapy of an afucosylated anti-CD20 antibody with fludarabine and / or mitoxantrone for the treatment of cancer, especially to the combination therapy of CD20 expressing cancers with an afucosylated humanized B-Ly1 antibody with fludarabine and / or mitoxantrone.

Description

[0001] The present invention relates to the combination therapy of afucosylated CD20 antibody and fludarabine and / or mitoxantrone for treating cancer. Background of the invention [0002] Afucosylated Antibodies [0003] The cell-mediated effector functions of monoclonal antibodies can be enhanced by engineering their oligosaccharide components, as documented in , P. et al., Nature Biotechnol.17(1999) 176-180 and US6,602,684. IgG1 type antibodies (ie, the antibodies most commonly used in cancer immunotherapy) are glycoproteins with a conserved N-linked glycosylation site at Asn297 in each CH2 domain. Two complex biantennary oligosaccharides attached to Asn297 are buried between each CH2 domain, forming extensive contacts with the polypeptide backbone, and their presence is essential for antibody-mediated effector functions such as antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity (ADCC). Important (Lifely, M.R. et al., Glycobiology 5 (1995) 813-822; Jefferis, R. et al., Immunol. Rev...
