Abstract: Provided is a method for the treatment of a lymphoid malignant neoplasm in a subject in need thereof comprising administering to the subject an effective amount of a bispecific antibody which comprises a Fab portion that binds CD47 and a Fab portion that binds CD20. In some embodiments, the lymphoid malignant neoplasm is Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma (NHL), follicular lymphoma (FL), diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL), marginal zone lymphoma (MZL), mantle cell lymphoma (MCL), or primary mediastinal B-cell lymphoma. In certain embodiments, the lymphoid malignant neoplasm is NHL.
