We aimed to screen exons 9-14 of the CD22 gene, which is a mutational hot spot region in B-precursor acute lymphoblastic leukemia (pre-B ALL) patients, to find possible genetic variants that could play role in the pathogenesis of pre-B ALL in Turkish children.
The anti-leukemic activity of this RTM against BPL xenograft clones derived from CD22ΔE12(+) leukemia patients provides the preclinical proof-of-concept that correcting the CD22ΔE12 defect with rationally designed CD22 RTMs may provide the foundation for therapeutic innovations that are needed for successful treatment of high-risk and relapsed BPL patients.
HA22 is composed of an Fv that binds to CD22 fused to a portion of Pseudomonas exotoxin A. HA22 is very active in drug-resistant hairy cell leukemia but is less active in children with acute lymphoblastic leukemia.
An immunotoxin (IT) constructed with RFB4, a murine anti-CD22 monoclonal antibody, and the "deglycosylated" A chain of ricin has shown activity at safe doses in patients with non-Hodgkin lymphoma and in children with acute lymphoblastic leukemia.
Flow cytometric study of potential target antigens (CD19, CD20, CD22, CD33) for antibody-based immunotherapy in acute lymphoblastic leukemia: analysis of 552 cases.
We report on a case of a 30-year-old male with acute B-lymphoblastic leukemia (B-ALL) with immunophenotype CD19(+), CD22(+), CD20(+), CD10(+), with aberrant expression of CD13 and CD117, and IgH gene rearrangements.
All cases were confirmed as B-lineage lymphoblastic leukemia by virtue of expression of CD19 and/or CD22, lack of T-cell antigens, and lack of surface-membrane immunoglobulin (Ig).
