TLDR
A hypothetical model is derived that relates the malignant B cell to its normal cellular counterpart on the basis of cell surface expression of this panel of B cell-restricted and B cell -associated antigens.

Rituximab chimeric anti-CD20 monoclonal antibody therapy for relapsed indolent lymphoma: half of patients respond to a four-dose treatment program.

TL;DR: The response rate of 48% with IDEC-C2B8 is comparable to results with single-agent cytotoxic chemotherapy, and further investigation of this agent is warranted, including its use in conjunction with standard chemotherapy.
Journal ArticleDOI

IDEC-C2B8 (Rituximab) Anti-CD20 Monoclonal Antibody Therapy in Patients With Relapsed Low-Grade Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma

TL;DR: Likelihood of tumor response was associated with a follicular histology, with the ability to sustain a high serum level of antibody after the first infusion, and with a longer duration of remission to prior chemotherapy, and IDEC-C2B8 has a better safety profile.
Journal ArticleDOI

Treatment of Patients With Low-Grade B-Cell Lymphoma With the Combination of Chimeric Anti-CD20 Monoclonal Antibody and CHOP Chemotherapy

TL;DR: This is the first report demonstrating the safety and efficacy of Rituxan anti-CD20 chimeric antibody in combination with standard-dose systemic chemotherapy in the treatment of indolent B-cell lymphoma.
Journal ArticleDOI

Cellular function and molecular structure of ecto-nucleotidases

TL;DR: The review focuses on the principal biochemical, cell biological, catalytic, and structural properties of the enzymes and provides brief reference to tissue distribution, and physiological and pathophysiological functions.

Continuous cultures of fused cells secreting antibody of predefined specificity

TL;DR: The derivation of a number of tissue culture cell lines which secrete anti-sheep red blood cell (SRBC) antibodies is described here, made by fusion of a mouse myeloma and mouse spleen cells from an immunised donor.

Proposals for the classification of the acute leukaemias. French-American-British (FAB) co-operative group.

TL;DR: A uniform system of classification and nomenclature of the acute leukaemias should permit more accurate recording of the distribution of cases entered into clinical trials, and could provide a reference standard when newly developed cell‐surface markers believed to characterize specific cell types are applied to cases of acuteLeukaemia.

Clinical staging of chronic lymphocytic leukemia.

TL;DR: The proposed staging system was an equally accurate indicator for survival when applied to two other previously published studies of large series of patients and sex and age were shown to be poor predictors of survival after adjustment for stage.
