New Therapeutic Approach for the Treatment of B-Cell Disorders Using Chlorambucil/Hydroxychloroquine-Loaded AntiCD20 Nanoparticles

Abstract Abstract 158 B-cell disorders show highly variable clinical courses, ranging between indolent diseases like the chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) and highly aggressive lymphoproliferative disorders like Burkitt Lymphoma. The treatments of these disorders have been characterized by the development of new approaches, including dose-intensive chemotherapy regimens and immunotherapy via monoclonal antibodies (Ab). Despite the promising survival rates, these multi-agent treatments are flawed by a high degree of toxicity and a significant fraction of patients do not respond. The use of core shell nanoparticles design with specific Ab-coating represents a new strategy to target only tumo…
