Regulatory T-cells in B-cell chronic lymphocytic leukemia: their role in disease progression and autoimmune cytopenias.

abstract：:This open-label, phase 1 study evaluated the effects of ofatumumab on QTc intervals, safety, efficacy, B-cell and neutrophil counts, complement levels, and cytokine and chemokine concentrations. Fourteen patients with fludarabine-refractory chronic lymphocytic leukemia received 12 ofatumumab infusions. A higher maximu...
