Resimmune
Resimmune or A-dmDT390-bisFv(UCHT1) is an experimental drug — an anti-T cell immunotoxin — that is being investigated for treatment of blood cancers such as cutaneous T cell lymphoma (CTCL). It was developed by Doctors Neville, Woo, and Liu while at the National Institutes of Health (NIH) and is under exclusive license to Angimmune, LLC. The therapy has potential applications for lymphomas and T cell driven autoimmune diseases, including multiple sclerosis, and graft-versus-host disease following stem cell or bone marrow transplant. ==Clinical trials== Since 2009, Resimmune is being tested against cutaneous T cell lymphoma, and is in a Phase II trial: Immunotoxin Therapy for Patients With T-cell Diseases.〔(Scott & White Healthcare Cancer Research Institute: Clinical Trial 071163 - A Phase I/II study of A-dmDT390-bisFv(UCHT1) Fusion Protein in Patients with Cutaneous T-Cell Lymphoma )〕 All patients had failed at least one conventional therapy. In the Phase I portion of the trail, a subgroup of nine patients was identified with a 89% response rate.〔(Angimmune: Clinical Trials: Identification of a Cutaneous T-Cell Lymphoma (CTCL) Subgroup Experiencing a High Treatment Response Rate: Paragraph 1 )〕 This subgroup was Stage IB-IIB with mSWAT scores of less than 50. The complete response rate was 50% (two of which are over 72 months duration and could represent cures). A major exclusion to entering the trial is a past history of heart disease, or prior treatment with alemtuzumab (Campath). 〔(Angimmune: Clinical Trials: Trial Description: Paragraph 2 )〕 A second clinical trial is open to test if Resimmune can act as an immunomodulator of late stage metastatic melanoma.
