ABSTRACT:
This invention relates to a method for the diagnosis of benign Barrett's Epithelium and Barrett's-derived adenocarcinoma. The method of diagnosis comprises contacting a monoclonal antibody which reacts with benign Barrett's Epithelium cells and Barrett's-derived adenocarcinoma cells, but does not react with normal esophageal epithelium cells, squamous carcinoma cells, cardia cells or gastric mucosa cells and detecting immunoreactivity. Immunoreactivity indicates a positive diagnosis Barrett's Epithelium or Barrett's-derived adenocarcinoma.
