Ofatumumab and Granzyme B as immunotoxin against CD20 antigen

In Silico Pharmacology, 2022
Anti-CD20 antibodies such as ofatumumab has demonstrated efficacy in relapsed/refractory chronic lymphocytic leukemia, are among the most successful therapies to date. In this study, we have designed an immunotoxin composed of Granzyme B and the high affinity variant of Ofatumumab.

CD20: A target antigen for immunotherapy of autoimmune diseases

Autoimmunity Reviews, 2005
This article reviews the role of CD20 antigen in B cell function and the effectiveness and limits of passive immunotherapy with anti-CD20 monoclonal antibody (Rituximab) in the treatment of autoimmune (or immune-mediated) diseases. Active immunotherapy is a more feasible way to control these chronic diseases.

Development of a Mimotope-Based Vaccine Against CD20 Antigen

Protein & Peptide Letters, 2007
CD20, a B-cell-specific protein, is a primary target for immunotherapy of B-cell lymphomas. We used a mimotopes of CD20 to construct vaccines for B-cell-related disorders. The immunogenicity of the vaccines was tested in BALB/c mice. Results of this study suggest that the mimotope may be a useful tool for the construction of a functional vaccine to ...

Reduced expression of CD20 antigen as a characteristic marker for chronic lymphocytic leukemia

American Journal of Hematology, 1992
AbstractThe surface antigens expressed by the cells of chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) are well known. Most CLL are monoclonal B‐cell lymphoproliferative disorders characterized by the coexpression of B‐cell antigens and CD5, an antigen present predominantly on T cells.

Analysis of cis-acting elements present in the CD20/B1 antigen promoter

The Journal of Immunology, 1991
Abstract A genomic clone spanning a large portion of the 5’ untranscribed region of the CD20 gene was isolated. Deletion analysis of subcloned fragments identified several regulatory elements. A major positive cis-acting element was localized between base pairs -290/-186.

Radiobiology of radioimmunotherapy: Targeting CD20 B-cell antigen in non-Hodgkin's lymphoma

International Journal of Radiation Oncology*Biology*Physics, 2004
The radiobiology of radioimmunotherapy is an important determinant of both the toxicity and the efficacy associated with the treatment of B-cell non-Hodgkin's lymphoma with radiolabeled anti-CD20 monoclonal antibodies. The properties of the target, CD20, and the mechanisms of action of both the monoclonal antibodies and the associated exponentially ...

Development and Characterization of a New Antipeptide Monoclonal Antibody Directed to Human CD20 Antigen

Cancer Biotherapy and Radiopharmaceuticals, 2015
The rapid expansion of immunotherapeutic approaches for treatment of various diseases, including cancers, has been greatly facilitated by the invention of new generation of antibodies. Clinical studies have indicated that anti-CD20 mAb-based therapies represent an effective treatment for various diseases with overexpression of CD20 on their cell ...

Immunological evaluation of predicted linear B‐cell epitopes of human CD20 antigen

Biotechnology and Applied Biochemistry, 2012
AbstractThe importance of B‐lymphocyte‐restricted differentiation antigen Bp35 (CD20) as a target for immunotherapeutic depletion of B cells is irrefutable. Several anti‐human CD20 (anti‐hCD20) monoclonal antibodies are expressed at different stages of development.

The clinical and biological role of CD20 membrane antigen modulation under immunotherapy with anti-CD20 monoclonal antibody rituximab in lymphoprolipherative neoplastic disorders [PDF]

open access: possibleExpert Opinion on Biological Therapy, 2011
Immunotherapy using an antibody (rituximab) targeting CD20 antigen in combination with chemotherapy has been recently associated with significantly improved response rate and survival in patients with various types of CD20-positive B-cell lymphoproliferative disorders. This treatment may induce the disappearance of CD20 surface expression on neoplastic

Characterization of Self-Assembled Monolayers of Peptide Mimotopes of CD20 Antigen and Their Binding with Rituximab

Langmuir, 2015
CD20, expressed in greater than 90% of B-lymphocytic lymphomas, is a target for antibody therapy. Rituximab is a chimeric therapeutic monoclonal antibody (mAb) against the protein CD20, allowing it to destroy B cells and to treat lymphoma, leukemia, transplant rejection, and autoimmune disorder.
