Abstract

This document provides methods and materials related to treating lymphomas. For example, methods and materials relating to the use of a composition containing albumin-containing nanoparticle/antibody complexes (e.g., ABRAXANE®/anti-CD20 polypeptide antibody complexes) to treat lymphomas are provided.

Claims (21)

1. A method for treating a human having lymphoma, said method comprising administering to said human a composition comprising pre-formed nanoparticle/antibody complexes comprising albumin-paclitaxel nanoparticles and an anti-CD20 monoclonal antibody, wherein albumin is complexed to the anti-CD20 monoclonal antibody in the pre-formed nanoparticle/antibody complexes, wherein the nanoparticle/antibody complexes have been pre-formed in vitro by mixing aqueous albumin-paclitaxel nanoparticles with the anti-CD20 monoclonal antibody under conditions to form the nanoparticle/antibody complexes, wherein the conditions comprise incubating at least 5 mg/ml aqueous albumin-paclitaxel nanoparticles with the anti-CD20 monoclonal antibody at a weight ratio of 5:1, 5:2, 5:3, 5:4 or 1:1 albumin-paclitaxel nanoparticle to antibody and for between about 5 minutes and about 400 minutes and diluting the pre-formed nanoparticle/antibody complexes prior to administration, such that the nanoparticle/antibody complexes have CD20 binding specificity and an average diameter of said complexes is between 0.15 μm and 0.9 μm; said nanoparticle/antibody complexes suitable for administration under conditions wherein a length of progression-free survival is increased, wherein a B-cell or T-cell expresses CD20.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein said lymphoma is a Hodgkin lymphoma.

3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the anti-CD20 monoclonal antibody is Rituximab.

4. The method of claim 1 , wherein said composition comprises an alkylating agent complexed with said nanoparticles.

5. The method of claim 4 , wherein said alkylating agent is a platinum compound.

6. The method of claim 5 , wherein said platinum compound is carboplatin.

7. The method of claim 1 , wherein said anti-CD20 monoclonal antibody is a humanized antibody or a chimeric antibody.

8. The method of claim 1 , wherein said composition is administered by injection.

9. The method of claim 1 , wherein said progression-free survival is increased by 15 percent.

10. The method of claim 1 , wherein said composition is suitable for administration under conditions wherein a time to progression is increased.

11. A method for treating a human having lymphoma, wherein said method comprises administering, to said human, a composition comprising pre-formed albumin-containing nanoparticle/antibody complexes, wherein the complexes have been pre-formed in vitro by mixing aqueous albumin-paclitaxel nanoparticles with the antibody under conditions to form the complexes, wherein the conditions comprise incubating at least 5 mg/ml aqueous albumin-paclitaxel nanoparticles with the anti-CD20 monoclonal antibody at a weight ratio of 5:1, 5:2, 5:3, 5:4 or 1:1 albumin-paclitaxel nanoparticle to antibody and for between about 5 minutes and about 400 minutes and diluting the pre-formed nanoparticle/antibody complexes prior to administration, wherein albumin is complexed to the antibody in the pre-formed albumin-containing nanoparticle/antibody complexes,

wherein an average diameter of said complexes is between 0.15 μm and 0.9 μm, and wherein said antibody is an anti-CD20 monoclonal antibody and the complexes have CD20 binding specificity, wherein a B-cell or T-cell expresses CD20.

12. The method of claim 11 , wherein said lymphoma is a mature B-cell neoplasm or a mature T cell neoplasm.

13. The method of claim 11 , wherein said composition further comprises an anti-inflammatory agent.

14. The method of claim 11 , wherein said administration of said composition is under conditions wherein a median time to progression for a population of humans with said lymphoma is at least 150 days.

15. The method of claim 11 , wherein the average diameter of said complexes is from 0.15 μm to 0.3 μm.

16. The method of claim 11 , wherein the average diameter of said complexes is from 0.3 μm to 0.5 μm.

17. A method for treating a human having lymphoma, wherein said method comprises administering, to said human, a composition comprising pre-formed albumin-containing nanoparticle/antibody complexes, wherein the complexes have been pre-formed in vitro by mixing aqueous albumin-paclitaxel nanoparticles with an antibody under conditions to form the complexes, wherein the conditions comprise incubating at least 5 mg/ml aqueous albumin-paclitaxel nanoparticles with the anti-CD20 monoclonal antibody at a weight ratio of 5:1, 5:2, 5:3, 5:4 or 1:1 albumin-paclitaxel nanoparticle to antibody and for between about 5 minutes and about 400 minutes and diluting the pre-formed nanoparticle/antibody complexes prior to administration, wherein albumin is complexed to the antibody in the pre-formed albumin-containing nanoparticle/antibody complexes,

wherein an average diameter of at least 5 percent of said complexes of said composition is between 0.15 μm and 0.9 μm, and wherein said antibodies are anti-CD20 monoclonal antibodies and the complexes have CD20 binding specificity, wherein a B-cell or T-cell expresses CD20.

18. The method of claim 17 , wherein the average diameter of at least 75 percent of said complexes of said composition is between 0.15 μm and 0.9 μm.

19. The method of claim 1 , wherein the complexes have been pre-formed in vitro by mixing 5 mg/ml or 10 mg/ml aqueous albumin-paclitaxel nanoparticles with the antibody under conditions to form the complexes.
