A recently granted patent (Publication Number: US11987636B2) discloses a method for treating a human subject with a CD20-expressing cancer using a bispecific anti-CD20×anti-CD3 antibody. The method involves administering the antibody in five phases, with varying dose amounts ranging from 0.5 mg to 55 mg, independent of the subject's weight. The time period between each administration is approximately 6 to 8 days. The antibody comprises specific amino acid sequences and binding domains targeting CD3 and CD20. Additionally, the patent includes provisions for a sixth phase of treatment with specific dose amounts and intervals between administrations.

Furthermore, the patent specifies that the CD20-expressing cancer targeted by this method can include various types of lymphomas, such as Non-Hodgkin lymphoma, including B-cell NHL and specific subtypes like Burkitt's lymphoma, follicular lymphoma, and mantle cell lymphoma, among others. The method also involves administering a combination of a corticosteroid, an antihistamine, and acetaminophen before each antibody administration. The patent provides detailed dosage information for each phase of treatment, emphasizing the precise amounts and intervals for optimal therapeutic effect. Overall, the patent outlines a comprehensive and specific approach to treating CD20-expressing cancers, particularly lymphomas, using a bispecific antibody with defined characteristics and administration protocols.
