BACKGROUND
Denileukin diftitox is a recombinant novel fusion protein of diphtheria toxin and the ligand-binding domain of human IL-2. Denileukin diftitox binds to the high-affinity IL-2 receptor on the cell surface, and it is internalized by endocytosis and enzymatically cleaved. The cytotoxic
We genetically characterized seven nearly complete genomes in the protoparvovirus genus from the feces of children with diarrhea. The viruses, provisionally named cutaviruses (CutaV), varied by 1-6% nucleotides and shared ~76% and ~82% amino acid identity with the NS1 and VP1 of human bufaviruses,
BACKGROUND
Forodesine is a potent inhibitor of purine nucleoside phosphorylase (PNP) that leads to intracellular accumulation of deoxyguanosine triphosphate (dGTP) in T and B cells, resulting in apoptosis. Forodesine has demonstrated impressive antitumor activity in early phase clinical trials in

Vorinostat, an orally active histone deacetylase inhibitor, was approved in October 2006 by the US Food and Drug Administration for the treatment of cutaneous manifestations of cutaneous T-cell lymphoma (CTCL) in patients with progressive, persistent, or recurrent disease during or after
OBJECTIVE
Within this phase II EORTC trial, we have investigated the safety and efficacy of pentostatin in lymphoid malignancies. We have previously reported the results in T- and B-cell prolymphocytic leukemia, B-cell chronic lymphocytic leukemia (B-CLL) and hairy cell leukemia. This report focuses
We conducted a phase II study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of cladribine (2-chlorodeoxyadenosine [2-CdA]) for patients with refractory or relapsed indolent B-cell lymphoma or mycosis fungoides. Forty-five patients were enrolled, and 43 patients, including 34 with follicular lymphoma, were
Cutavirus is a new member of the Parvoviridae family. It was first discovered in 2016 through unbiased metagenomics performed on fecal samples collected from patients with diarrhea, and also in skin biopsies collected from patients with cutaneous T-cell lymphoma (CTCL, also known as mycosis
We treated 51 patients with advanced malignant lymphoma refractory to conventional therapy with methyl-glyoxal-bis(guanylhydrazone) (methyl-GAG) at doses ranging from 400 to 800 mg/sq m. Therapy was started on a weekly schedule and was switched to every other week in responding patients at the onset
Fludarabine phosphate is the 2-fluoro, 5'-monophosphate derivative of vidarabine (ara-A) with the advantages of resistance to deamination by adenosine deaminase (ADA) and improved solubility. The mechanism of cytotoxic action of the compound appears to involve metabolic conversion to the active
OBJECTIVE
To evaluate the activity and safety of the histone deacetylase inhibitor vorinostat (suberoylanilide hydroxamic acid) in persistent, progressive, or recurrent mycosis fungoides or Sézary syndrome (MF/SS) cutaneous t-cell lymphoma (CTCL) subtypes.
METHODS
Patients with stage IB-IVA MF/SS
