[dopaccordion title=”Fanger, Michael W. Antibody Dependent Cell Cytotoxicity Reaction Mechanism
Grant: 5R01CA031918-03″ icon=27 activeicon=28]

Abstract: Studies under this project have focused on the preparation of a number of hybridoma cell lines producing monoclonal anti-tumor cell antibodies and the use of these reagents to study the mechanism of antibody-sependent cell cytotoxicity (ADCC). We have now prepared three panels of monoclonal antibodies which are relatively specific for small cell carcinoma of the lung (SCCL), acute myelogenous leukemia (AML) or mesothelioma tumor cells. Using these reagents, we are now attempting to obtain new information useful in understanding ADCC and its importance. In particular, studies are being conducted to determine the effectiveness of various classes and subclasses of antibody, and the role of monocytes and isolated lymphocyte subpopulations in mediating ADCC. The possibility that ADCC reactions can be modulated has been explored. We have found that a number of physiological mediators including gamma-interferon are capable of dramatically enhancing ADCC by monocytes. This appears to result from induction of increased numbers of receptors for the Fc portion of immunoglobulins on these cells and perhaps on some increased activity of the monocytes’ cytotoxic capabilities. These findings have considerable therapeutic significance in that they imply that in vivo serotherapy with monoclonal antibody may be made significantly more efficacious by first inducing increased cytotoxic capabilities with gamma-interferon. We are also exploring other mediators as potential inducers of enhanced ADCC. It is anticipated that these studies should provide definitive information on some aspects of ADCC reactions and permit a better understanding of the role of this process in tumor immunity. Moreover, some of the information obtained may provide insights into in vivo approaches to the modulation of ADCC reactivity.

[dopaccordion title=”Mc Intyre, O R. Research Base For Community Clinical Oncology Program
Grant: 2U10CA037447-08″ icon=27 activeicon=28]

Abstract: The proposed role of the Cancer and Leukemia Group B (CALGB) as a research base for Community Clinical Oncology Programs (CCOPs) is described in this application. The CALGB has been funded for this activity for the last 6 years and during this time has organized the necessary committees, statistical input, data management, quality assurance procedures and educational activities required to support the treatment and cancer control research protocols mounted by the CALGB. Further development of the CALGB’s research base, as described in the application, will assist in broadening the CCOP program so as to better address the needs of medically underserved populations and the aged, and to enlarge the number and quality of cancer control research protocols.
