DB05471
Background

SGN-30 is an engineered monoclonal antibody (mAb) that reacts with significant affinity to the CD30 antigen, which is highly expressed on a variety of hematologic malignancies as compared to on normal cells. SGN-30 has been shown to induce direct anti-cancer activity towards tumor cells expressing CD30 and is undergoing phase II trials for cancer therapy. SGN-30 has demonstrated objective antitumor responses as a single agent in phase II clinical trials. We are collaborating with the National Cancer Institute (NCI) on three clinical trials of SGN-30 in combination with chemotherapy for the treatment of relapsed Hodgkin lymphoma, front-line ALCL and pediatric ALCL.

SGN-30 received orphan drug designation from the FDA in July 2003 for Hodgkin lymphoma and in February 2004 for T-cell lymphomas.

Pharmacodynamics

SGN-30, a monoclonal antibody with activity against CD30+ malignancies. Through investigation of the mechanisms underlying SGN-30's antitumor activity, SGN-30 treatment was found to activate NF-kappaB and modulation of several messages including the growth regulator p21WAF1/CIP1 (p21) and cellular adhesion marker ICAM-1. p21 protein level changes are believed to be associated with arresting cell growth.

In addition to directly killing cancerous cells, SGN-30 affects growth arrest and drug sensitization through growth regulating and proapoptotic machinery. SGN-30 could therefore be used to increase the efficacy of standard chemotherapies used to treat patients with CD30+ malignancies.
