Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

The introduction of monoclonal antibodies (MoAbs) into clinical practice has significantly improved the prognosis of many hematological malignancies, representing  a milestone in the field of precision medicine.

Used in monotherapy or, more often, in combination with chemotherapy, MoAbs are currently essential in the treatment of lymphoid neoplasms.

MoAbs are able to target specific cancer antigens, using direct or indirect immunological killing to address cytotoxic agents to neoplastic cells, to recruit and activate immune effector cells, and to antagonize cell exhaustion.      

In this Special Issue, we would like to provide an overview of the biological basis and the current clinical use of MoAbs and of the optimal combination regimens and sequential schemes, with a look towards future therapeutic perspectives.

Dr. Donato Mannina
Guest Editor
