Abstract
Monoclonal antibody 425 having properties particularly beneficial for anti-tumor therapy has been raised. MAb 425 antibody binds to EGF-receptors and inhibits their bioactivities. The amount of binding of the antibody to cancer cells can be increased by treatment of the cells with lymphokine preparations. Radiolabeled MAb 425 is used for treatment of EGF receptor-expressing gliomas.
