Abstract excerpt
Monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) are increasingly used in treatment protocols for chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL). Here we determined (i) the extent of antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity (ADCC) of four different mAbs against primary CLL cells, (ii) whether ADCC correlates with antigen density on CLL cells, and (iii) whether allogeneic natural killer (NK) cells display superior ADCC than autologous. Effector...
