CD33 is variably expressed on leukemia blasts in almost all patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and possibly leukemia stem cells in some. Efforts to target CD33 therapeutically have focused on gemtuzumab ozogamicin (GO; Mylotarg), an antibody-drug conjugate delivering a DNA-damaging calicheamicin derivative. GO is most effective in acute promyelocytic leukemia but induces remissions in other AML types and received accelerated approval in the US in 2000.
