Treatment of refractory Hodgkin's disease with an anti-CD16/CD30 bispecific antibody

Medizinische Klinik I, Universitatskliniken des Saarlandes, Homburg, Germany.

Fifteen patients with refractory Hodgkin's disease were treated in a phase I/II trial with the natural killer (NK)-cell-activating bispecific monoclonal antibody HRS-3/A9, which is directed against the Fc(gamma)-receptor III (CD16 antigen) and the Hodgkin's-associated CD30 antigen, respectively. Median counts of NK cells and of all lymphocyte subsets were considerably decreased in the patients before therapy. HRS- 3/A9 was administered 4 times every 3 to 4 days, starting with 1 mg/m2. The treatment was well tolerated, and the maximum tolerated dose was not reached at 64 mg/m2, the highest dose administered because of the limited amounts of HRS-3/A9 available. Side effects were rare and consisted of fever, pain in involved lymph nodes, and a maculopapulous rash. A total of 9 patients developed human antimouse Ig antibodies, and 4 patients developed an allergic reaction after attempted retreatment. A total of 1 complete and 1 partial remission (lasting 16 and 3 months, respectively), 3 minor responses (1 to 11+ months), and 1 mixed response were achieved. There was no clear-cut dose-side effect or dose-response correlation. Our results encourage further clinical trials with this novel immunotherapeutic approach and emphasize the necessity to reduce the immunogenicity of the murine bispecific antibodies.
