Siltuximab for multicentric Castleman disease
Expert Review of Hematology, 2014Dysregulated secretion of IL-6 plays a pivotal role in the pathogenesis of Castleman disease (CD), a rare lymphoproliferative disorder. In contrast to unicentric CD for which surgery is considered the treatment of choice, there is no standard therapeutic approach for multicentric CD (MCD). Siltuximab (trade name: Sylvant, formerly known as CNTO 328) is

Dose selection of siltuximab for multicentric Castleman’s disease
Cancer Chemotherapy and Pharmacology, 2015Siltuximab is a monoclonal antibody that binds to interleukin (IL)-6 with high affinity and specificity; C-reactive protein (CRP) is an acute-phase protein induced by IL-6. CRP suppression is an indirect measurement of IL-6 activity. Here, modeling and simulation of the pharmacokinetic (PK)/pharmacodynamic (PD) relationship between siltuximab and CRP ...

Targeting interleukin 6 signaling by monoclonal antibody siltuximab on cholangiocarcinoma
Journal of Gastroenterology and Hepatology, 2020AbstractBackground and AimCholangiocarcinoma has an unimproved prognosis. Interleukin 6 (IL‐6) has an oncogenic potential in some cancer diseases. However, the role of IL‐6 in cholangiocarcinoma carcinogenesis is not well understood. The current study investigated the role of IL‐6 signaling in cholangiocarcinoma carcinogenesis and efficacy of ...

Siltuximab: A Targeted Therapy for Idiopathic Multicentric Castleman Disease
Immunotherapy, 2015Human herpes virus-8 (HHV-8)-negative or idiopathic multicentric Castleman disease (iMCD) is a rare and deadly disorder that sits at the nexus of hematology/oncology, virology and immunology. Management of iMCD has been challenging due to limited understanding of etiology and pathogenesis and few treatment options. The recent approvals in North America,

Siltuximab and hematologic malignancies. A focus in non Hodgkin lymphoma
Expert Opinion on Investigational Drugs, 2017The role of interleukin-6 (IL-6) in tumorigenesis and in particular in haematological malignancies is crucial. On the basis of the favourable results obtained in the subset of multicentric Castleman disease (MCD), Siltuximab, a chimeric, human-murine, immunoglobulin (Ig) Gk monoclonal antibody directed against human IL-6 has been evaluated in ...

Siltuximab in transplant-ineligible patients with myeloma
The Lancet Oncology, 2014In patients who are transplant-ineligible with newly diagnosed multiple myeloma, the addition of siltuximab (an anti-interleukin-6 monoclonal anti body) to the bortezomibmelphalan-prednisone (VMP) regimen does not improve complete response, progression-free survival (PFS), and overall survival, but improves very good partial responses (VGPR), new ...
