In vivo localisation of radiolabelled antibodies to carcinoembryonic antigen in human colon carcinoma grafted into nude mice

Abstract

SEVERAL attempts have been made to show the specific localisation in vivo of anti-tumour antibodies. Most of these studies, however, either in experimental animals1,2 or in humans3 were performed with antibodies obtained by adsorption and elution from poorly characterised crude tumour fractions.
