Radioimmunodetection (RAID) using radiolabeled monoclonal antibodies (MoAbs) has potential clinical useful application in diagnosis and management of breast carcinoma

  • 1. Buffalo Univ., NY (United States)

Description

The current study attempted to assess the potential proficiency of radioimmunodetection (RAID) of primary, residual, multicentric and recurrent breast carcinoma using two-radiolabeled murine monoclonal antibodies (MoAbs), anti-Human Milk Fat Globuli n (HMFG1) labeled with Iodine (I123) and anti-Carcinoembryonic Antigen (CEA) labeled with Technetium (Tch99). The MoAbs used bound specifically to breast cancer lesions, with accurate RAID in 10 of 12 studied patients. Accuracy 83.3%, sensitivity 87.5% and specificity 75.0%, suggesting that radiolabeled MoAbs used in this study are potential diagnostic agents for breast carcinoma
