Treating myelomas
View Patent ↗This document provides methods and materials related to treating myelomas. For example, methods and materials relating to the use of a composition containing albumin-containing nanoparticle/antibody complexes (e.g., ABRAXANE®/anti-CD38 polypeptide antibody complexes) to treat myelomas are provided.
1. A method for treating a mammal having myeloma, said method comprising administering to said mammal a composition comprising nanoparticle/antibody complexes containing albumin-bound paclitaxel complexed with an anti-CD38 polypeptide antibody wherein the administration of the composition increases length of progression-free survival, and wherein an average diameter of said complexes is between 0.1 and 0.9 μm.
2. The method of claim 1 , wherein said mammal is a human.
3. The method of claim 1 , wherein said myeloma is multiple myeloma.
4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the anti-CD38 antibody is Daratumumab, MOR202, SAR650984, or any combination thereof.
5. A method for treating a mammal having myeloma, wherein said method comprises administering, to said mammal, a composition comprising nanoparticle/antibody complexes comprising albumin-bound paclitaxel, wherein an average diameter of said complexes is between 0.1 and 0.9 μm, and wherein said antibody is an anti-CD38 antibody.
6. The method of claim 5 , wherein said mammal is a human.
7. The method of claim 5 , wherein said myeloma is a multiple myeloma.
8. The method of claim 5 , wherein said myeloma is a light chain myeloma.
9. The method of claim 5 , wherein said myeloma is a non-secretory myeloma.
10. The method of claim 5 , wherein the anti-CD38 antibody is Daratumumab, MOR202, SAR650984, or any combination thereof.
11. A method for treating a mammal having myeloma, wherein said method comprises administering, to said mammal, a composition comprising nanoparticle/antibody complexes comprising albumin-bound paclitaxel, wherein an average diameter of at least 50 percent of said complexes of said composition is between 0.1 and 0.9 μm, and wherein said antibodies are anti-CD38 antibodies.
12. The method of claim 11 , wherein said mammal is a human.
13. The method of claim 11 , wherein said myeloma is a multiple myeloma.
14. The method of claim 11 , wherein said myeloma is a light chain myeloma.
15. The method of claim 11 , wherein said myeloma is a non-secretory myeloma.
16. The method of claim 11 , wherein the anti-CD38 antibody is Daratumumab, MOR202, SAR650984, or any combination thereof.
