Description

The patients were treated between December 1983 and May 1987, all being followed up for 6 months or until relapse. At MAb treatment 29 patients had stage III disease. The other 3 patients were in complete remission following chemotherapy for stage III/IV tumors. All patients had received previous surgery. Thirty patients received postoperative chemotherapy. 2 patients received external beam radiotherapy to the pelvis and whole abdomen, and 1 patient had intracavitary therapy with yttrium-90-labelled antibodies. The results of the treatment with 131I-labelled MAbs are presented and discussed. (orig./MG)
