Recently, we have developed diphtheria toxin-based recombinant Ontak®-like human IL2 fusion toxin (IL2 fusion toxin) and anti-human CCR4 immunotoxin (CCR4 IT). In this study, we first compared the efficacy of the CCR4 IT vs IL2 fusion toxin for targeting human CD25<sup>+</sup> CCR4<sup>+</sup> CTCL. We demonstrated that CCR4 IT was more effect ...[more]
