Targeting human {gamma}delta} T cells with zoledronate and interleukin-2 for immunotherapy of hormone-refractory prostate cancer

TL;DR: Zoledronate + IL-2 represents a novel, safe, and feasible approach to induce immunologic and clinical responses in patients with metastatic carcinomas, potentially providing a substantially increased window for specific approaches to be administered.
Journal ArticleDOI

In vivo manipulation of Vgamma9Vdelta2 T cells with zoledronate and low-dose interleukin-2 for immunotherapy of advanced breast cancer patients.

TL;DR: The data emphasize the strong linkage of Vγ9Vδ2 T cell status to reduced carcinoma progression, and suggest that zoledronate plus low‐dose IL‐2 offers a novel, safe and feasible approach to enhance this in a subset of treatment‐refractory patients with advanced breast cancer.
Journal ArticleDOI

Disulfiram, an old drug with new potential therapeutic uses for human hematological malignancies

TL;DR: It is shown that multiple myeloma cell lines and primary cells from newly diagnosed and relapsed/resistant patients affected by MM, acute myeloid and lymphoblastic leukemia are significantly sensitive to DSF alone and in combination with copper, and a critical role of ROS is indicated.
