ABSTRACT:
Monoclonal antibody K1 binds to an epitope on the surface of cells of some human tumors, but not to many important normal tissues. Unlike similar antigenic sites such as CA125, this epitope is not shed into the plasma of patients with mesothelioma, e.g. with ovarian cancer. Since the K1 monoclonal antibody is therefore not neutralized by circulating antigen immediately upon injection into the bloodstream, and since K1 allows efficient entry of coupled toxins into cells, the K1 monoclonal antibody can be used in the diagnosis of mesotheliomas.
