Resumo

The increased expression of CD30 on some neoplasms versus its limited expression on normal tissue makes it an excellent target for antibody-based therapy. Recent studies have shown that anti-CD30 antibodies may serve as signaling molecules as well as mediators of interactions with the immune system. Unmodified anti-CD30 antibodies as well as anti-CD30-based bispecific antibodies, immunotoxins, and radioimmunoconjugates have been examined in preclinical and clinical studies. The data show that anti-CD30-based therapies are promising new treatment modalities for CD30+ neoplasms.
