Abstract
In 124 patients with various types of malignancy, fpA and delta fpA were measured. In 35 of these patients the effect of heparin injection on fpA and delta fpA was studied. All patients were ambulant without clinical signs of venous thromboembolism or DIC and had not received cytostatic, anticoagulant, or radiotherapy recently. In about 75% of these patients, fpA was elevated, whereas in the blood of one third of the patients, both elevated fpA levels and accelerated delta fpA were detected. Eight of the 45 patients with accelerated delta fpA (and elevated fpA) presented laboratory signs of low-grade DIC. In the patients taken at random for heparin administration, delta fpA normalized upon heparin injection, whereas in the majority of patients, irrespective of the fpA-generation rate, fpA levels were not affected by "adequate" heparinization. These results indicate that (1) about 30% of the (selected) patients admitted to our cancer clinic present with evidence of intravascular thrombin activity and (2) in 70% of these patients fpA is generated, at least in part, at a site not accessible to heparin. In addition 95% of patients with active metastatic disease showed an elevated fpA, whereas 90% of cancer patients in remission and 80% of patients without metastasis had a normal fpA, indicating that fpA can potentially be used to estimate the spread and the activity of the malignant process.

Abstract
The epidemiology of cancer is reviewed with particular emphasis on the geographic variations in the incidence of certain types of cancer. Several new developments in the prevention and treatment of cancer are discussed. The main advance in the results of treatment is due to chemotherapy, preferably in conjunction with radiotherapy and surgery. Much is expected of this procedure for the future.

Abstract
DNA/cell distributions were recorded by automated cytofluorometry (=pulse cytophotometry) in bone-marrow aspirates of leukaemia and lymphosarcoma patients subjected to chemotherapy. In most cases, early perturbations in DNA/cell histographs were observed, characteristically reflecting the known mode of action of the drugs. These changes in general preceded the clinical observation of drug response. In a series of 23 measurements in 19 patients, a positive correlation between early cytophotometric changes and clinical effects of chemotherapy was observed in 17 patients. Five patients were negative for both cytophotometric and clinical reactions and one patient was probably false-positive. The validity of the assay for early detection of drug resistance in acute leukaemia and related diseases is discussed.

Abstract
The distribution of the normal differentiation antigen Thy 1 and the mammary tumor virus (MTV)-induced antigens or antigen complexes MLm and MLr were studied in mouse mammary gland cells, mammary tumor cells, and other cell types, by use of ascites leukemia cells of the GR mouse strain as target cells in the cytotoxicity test. The Thy 1.2 antigen was detected by an AKR antiserum to C3Hf thymocytes. MLm was shown by a homologous C57BL antiserum to GRSL2 leukemia (absorbed in vivo in GR mice); MLr was detected by a rabbit heterologous antiserum (absorbed in vivo in C57BL or GR mice and in vitro with BALB/c milk) prepared against Tween 80- and ether-treated purified B particles. Sera from Sprague-Dawley rats bearing murine leukemia virus (MuLV)-producing syngeneic tumors were not cytotoxic or only slightly cytotoxic for GR leukemias transplanted in vivo, which indicated that MuLV-induced antigens were absent or present in very low quantity in such leukemias. The MLr and MLn antigens or antigen complexes were possibly identical to the mammary leukemia (ML) antigen, since they could be detected not only on GR but also on DBA/2 leukemia cells and since their distribution was exactly the same as that of MTV. Both the MLr and MLm antigens were present in purified B particles, and antigenic activity were present in purified B particles, and antigenic activity was enhanced by destruction of the purified virus particles. The antigens were about eightfold enriched in a preparation of B-particle envelopes, as shown by quantitative cytotoxicity absorption (CYTA) tests. Purified nucleoid fractions of B particles were only lightly positive for the antigen, probably due to envelope contamination. One dominant gene was responsible for the expression of MLr, as shown by CYTA tests with mammary glands of individual animals of segregating crosses between the GR strain with high mammary cancer incidence and strains with low incidence. This gene was closely linked with or was possibly identical to 1) the gene for cytoplasmic MTV gs antigen expression as seen by fixed cell immunofluorescence, and 2) the gene causing mammary tumors in the GR mouse strain.

Abstract
Measurements of the DNA content of mononuclear cells in the blood of patients with malignant lymphatic disease were made. In one case of acute lymphoblastic leukaemia, a large fraction of large type of blasts were in S phase. In the blood of a patient with leukaemic transformation of lymphosarcoma, a population of aneuploid tumour cells with a high percentage of cells in S phase was recognized. The increase of DNA synthesizing cells in the blood of patients with malignant lymphoma was associated with activity of the disease. The fraction of DNA synthesizing cells was raised sharply during chemotherapy.

Abstract
Oestrogen receptor determinations were done in metastatic breast cancer tissue of patients with advanced breast cancer. In 37 patients with progressive disease evaluation of the response to endocrine treatment was possible, following the criteria of the E.O.R.T.C. Co-operative Breast Cancer Group. In 20 patients with receptor-negative tumours two objective remissions were noted; in 17 patients with receptor-positive tumours 14 objective remissions were seen. There seems to be a striking correlation between the presence or absence of oestrogen receptor in tumour tissue and the clinical response to hormonal therapy.
