We tested the activity of dolastatin 10 (a natural product derived from the shell-less marine mollusk, Dolabella auricularia, a sea hare) and its structural modification, auristatin PE, alone and in combination with bryostatin 1 (a protein kinase C activator derived from the marine bryozoan Bugula neritina) on a human B-cell chronic lymphocytic leukemia cell line (WSU-CLL) and in a severe combined immune deficient (SCID) mouse xenograft model bearing this cell line. WSU-CLL cells were cultured…

There is ample in vitro data demonstrating that bryo 1 can sensitise tumour cells to cytotoxic agents, and recent clinical work has focused on combining b Bryo 1 with traditional chemotherapeutic agents for both haematologic and non-haematological cancers.

T cell therapy has a relatively strong scientific basis that justifies further clinical studies of immunotherapy in CLL and several studies have demonstrated that autologous T cells can recognize CLL cells.

The results suggest that CR011-vcMMAE may provide therapeutic benefit in malignant melanoma and that the antibody–drug conjugate produced complete regressions but the equivalent doses of free monomethylauristatin E or unconjugated antibody did not show anti-tumor effects.

TZT‐1027 quickly attacked the well‐developed vascular system of advanced tumors by a putative protein kinase‐dependent mechanism, and then blocked tumor blood flow, making it a potentially powerful tool for clinical cancer therapy.

The ability of bryostatin 1 to inhibit the in vitro growth and in vivo development of a panel of four murine tumors of diverse tissue origins and the observation that five of a Panel of six human B-cell lymphoma cell lines were sensitive to the growth inhibitory effects of bRYostatin in vitro suggest that brystatin may be effective in treating lymphoid malignancies in humans.

The history of antitumor drug discovery has essentially been the use of two lymphocytic leukemias of mice as selection funnels through which all agents needed to pass in order to advance toward clinical development, and it is thus not surprising that agents in the clinic are highly active against these tumor systems.

The clinical use of chlorambucil in the treatment of chronic lymphocytic leukemia and malignant lymphomas was first reported in 1955 and a direct and concurrent comparison between the two drugs had not been made, so the Veterans Administration Cancer Chemotherapy Study Group decided to undertake such a study in 1960.
