What is CD30
Structure
Function
The CD30L induces pleiotropic biologic effects on human CD30+ cell lines; the specific
responses include differentiation, activation, proliferation,
and cell death, which depend on cell type, stage of differentiation,
transformation status, and the presence of other stimuli. 12
Anti-CD30 immunotoxins
Because of their different mechanism of action (eg, killing of tumor
cells by inhibition
of protein synthesis) and nonoverlapping toxicity with chem~
therapy17'~an ti-CD30 immunotoxins may be expected to
be effective against chemoresistant and/or resting residual
CD30' tumor cells in this setting.
Systemic ALCL
morphologically
distinct type of lymphoid large cell neoplasms
that was designated as Ki-I/CD30+ ALCL.24
Treatment
However, the results of the current study indicate that systemic polychemotherapy as initial treatment does not
result in higher cure rates, longer disease-free periods, or less recurrences compared with local radiation therapy or
simple excision.15
Lymphomatoid papulosis
Immunohistochemical findings were consistent with an activated T-cell phenotype for the atypical cells of
lymphomatoid papulosis, the Reed-Sternberg cells of Hodgkin's disease, and the malignant cells of the T-cell
lymphoma.
A t(8;9) genetic translocation may be involved in the pathogenesis of lymphomatoid papulosis or its progression to
malignant disease28
