Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

Methods are provided to manipulate phagocytosis of cancer cells, including e.g. leukemias, solid tumors including carcinomas, etc.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. A method of treating a human subject with a leukemia or lymphoma, the method comprising: administering to a human subject in need thereof an antibody that disrupts the binding of CD47 with SIRPα, at a dose that achieves a depletion in leukemia or lymphoma cells by increasing phagocytosis of the leukemia or lymphoma cells. 2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the leukemia is an acute leukemia. 3. The method of claim 2 , wherein the acute leukemia is ALL (acute lymphoblastic leukemia). 4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the leukemia is chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML). 5. The method of claim 1 , wherein the lymphoma is DLBCL (diffuse large B-cell lymphoma). 6. The method of claim 1 , wherein the antibody that prevents the binding of CD47 with SIRPα specifically binds to CD47. 7. The method of claim 6 , wherein the antibody is a bispecific antibody, or is administered with a second monoclonal antibody directed against a specific cancer cell marker for depletion of cells expressing the marker.
