Serum levels of cancer-associated antigen 72-4 (CA72-4) (tumor-associated glycoprotein 72; TAG-72) from 106 patients with primary ovarian cancer were measured by an immunoradiometric assay employing the monoclonal antibodies (MAbs) B72.3 an…
The serum levels of CA 125 and CA 19-9 were determined by an immunoradiometric assay employing the monoclonal antibody OC 125 and anti-CA 19-9 antibody in 88 patients with ovarian carcinoma. When a cut-off value of CA 125 was set below 35 U…
CA 125, CA 19-9, TPA and IAP were useful for diagnosis of ovarian cancer. CA 125 was localized immunohistochemically in the surface and cytoplasma of cancer cells of serous cystadenocarcinomas, clear cell carcinomas, endometrioid carcinomas…
