    Notes: Abstract An antigen identified by two monoclonal anti-colorectal cancer antibodies was studied in sera of 85 patients who had a resection of their primary colorectal cancer. Preoperative and postoperative serum samples and sera collected every 3 months for at least 1 year were included in this study. The levels of these antigens were compared to the carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) levels. Sixty-six patients had at least one antigen elevated in the preoperative period. Malignancy recurred in 10 patients. In 8 of these the recurrence could have been predicted by the persistence or rise in antigen levels 3 to 18 months prior to the detection of the recurrence by current clinical methods. The data suggest that the assays for these antigens are valuable prognostic aids for making clinical therapeutic decisions and appropriately stratifying patients for clinical trials.

    Notes: Abstract Hybridoma-secreted monoclonal anti-colorectal carcinoma antibodies 19-9, 52a, and C4 14 bind specifically to cells of colorectal, gastric, and pancreatic carcinoma in tissue culture. The assay for the detection of antigen in human sera is based on the inhibition of binding of monoclonal antibodies to target preparations of colorectal carcinoma cells. Binding of monoclonal antibody 52a was inhibited more than 12% by 163 of 255 sera from patients from various stages of carcinoma of colon and rectum, by 45 of 49 sera from patients with pancreatic carcinoma, and by 8 of 11 sera from patients with gastric carcinoma. By contrast, only 7 of 89 sera from patients with other malignancies and 2 of 108 sera from healthy donors inhibited binding of this monoclonal antibody by more than 12%. These studies show the potential usefulness of monoclonal antibodies in the diagnosis of human malignancy.
