Abstract
MAb have become an important treatment modality in cancer therapy.Genetically engineered chimeric and humanized Ab have demonstrated activity against a variety of tumors. While the humanized anti-CD33MAb lintuzumab has only modest single-agent activity against overt AML, it can eliminate minimal residual disease detectable by reverse transcription-PCR in acute promyelocytic leukemia. Targeted chemotherapy with the anti−CD33−calicheamicin construct gemtuzumab ozogamicin has produced remissions in patients with relapsed AML and appears promising when used in combination with standard chemotherapy in the treatment of newly diagnosed AML.
