We present the case of a 43-year-old woman with a diagnosis of pulmonary alveolar proteinosis, on chronic treatment with sargramostim, a recombinant granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor, who presented with the nephrotic syndrome secondary to biopsy-proven membranous nephropathy. We discuss potential...

BACKGROUND: Current immunotherapy for patients with high-risk neuroblastoma involves the therapeutic antibody dinutuximab that targets GD2, a ganglioside expressed on the majority of neuroblastoma tumors. Opsonized tumor cells are killed through antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity (ADCC), a process mediated by...
