Abstract:
:Monoclonal antibodies directed at the lymphoid antigens have become established treatments for hematological malignancies either alone or in combination with chemotherapy. However, their incorporation in the transplant setting remains investigational. This review focuses on the currently available data for in vitro and in vivo purging with these antibodies as well as their role in modulating graft-versus-host disease (GVHD).
