Abstract
The administration of murine monoclonal antibodies (MAbs) induces, in many patients, an immunological response represented by the development of human anti-mouse antibodies (HAMA). HAMA have been previously shown to interfere in some assays for the detection of CEA, as well as other non tumor related analytes. The present study was performed to determine whether the CA 72-4 assay is affected by the presence of HAMA, and to establish conditions capable of overcoming this artifact. Serum samples obtained from 8/9 patients entered into a therapeutic protocol using 131I-labeled MAb B72.3 showed the development of apparently high levels of TAG-72 during the clinical follow-up concurrent with the appearance of elevated titers of HAMA. Heat treatment at 90°C at pH 5.0 sodium acetate, previously reported as a method of abolishing HAMA interference without affecting CEA levels, resulted in a considerable loss of detectable TAG-72. However, treatment of these samples at 90°C in pH 6.5 Bis Tris abolished the artifact due to HAMA and resulted in the reversion of reported TAG-72 levels to those observed prior to any MAb administration. As the use of murine M Abs, for both diagnostic and therapeutic applications continues to expand, the identification of this artifactual increase in reported antigen levels due to the development of HAMA has become an important factor in the use of tumor markers, e.g. TAG-72 and CEA, in the follow-up of carcinoma patients.

Abstract
Abstract
Background: We have utilized 64Cu-DOTA-trastuzumab with PET imaging to assess the in vivo expression of HER2 in women with advanced breast cancer. We have demonstrated that a preadministered dose of trastuzumab 45 mg prior to injection of 64Cu-DOTA-trastuzumab resulted in a 75% decrease in the hepatic uptake of Cu-64, resulting in improved image quality.
Methods: Patients with biopsy confirmation of recurrent disease located outside the breast and axilla considered for study. Complete staging workup included CT of the chest, abdomen, and pelvis, bone scintigraphy and 18F FDG PET. At least 1 non-hepatic site of metastasis that was > 2 cm separate from the biopsy site was also required. HER2 status was assessed by both IHC and FISH. Index lesions were identified on CT imaging. After the first two patients, all patients received a cold dose of 45mg of trastuzumab immediately prior to 64Cu-DOTA-trastuzumab to decrease liver uptake. 64Cu-DOTA-trastuzumab PET imaging was performed at 24 and 48 hours. Uptake on 64Cu-DOTA-trastuzumab was correlated with HER2 status by IHC and FISH.
Results: Fifteen women have undergone 64Cu-DOTA-trastuzumab PET imaging and quantitative image analysis. 10 patients were HER2+ (7 IHC 3+, 3 IHC 2+/FISH+), 3 patients were IHC 2+/FISH-, and 2 patients were IHC 1+. Tumor uptake by 64Cu-DOTA-trastuzumab PET max SUV was higher in HER2+ positive than HER2- patients (1.9-fold higher on day1, p<0.02, and 1.7-fold higher on day2, p<0.05). However, the lowest max SUV was in a HER2+ patient (HER2 2+/FISH+), demonstrating considerable heterogeneity.
Conclusion: 64Cu-DOTA-trastuzumab PET correlates with HER2+ status. However, due to high within and between patient variability, 64Cu-DOTA-trastuzumab PET imaging could potentially enrich for HER2+ patients that respond to HER2-targeted therapy, and could also suggest some HER2- patients that may benefit from HER2-targeted therapy. This hypothesis needs to be further explored in patients undergoing HER2-targeted therapy. This work was supported by the Department of Defense grant # BC095002.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Immunotherapy for B-cell lymphomas has evolved significantly with the advent of CD20-targeted Ab-based therapeutics. Strategies to invoke or augment cellular anti-lymphoma immune responses may also have considerable therapeutic potential and serve to further augment the clinical efficacy of MAbs. METHODS We report here the aquisition by priming human cytotoxic T lymphocyte (CTL) effectors of re-directed CD20 specificity by their genetic modification to express a chimeric immunoreceptor consisting of an anti-CD20 single chain Ab extracellular domain molecularly fused to the T-cell receptor complex CD3-zeta cytoplasmic tail (scFvFczeta). Peripheral blood-derived human T-cells were transduced with naked DNA plasmid vector by electoporation then selected for G418 resistance. RESULTS Following cloning in limiting dilution and ex vivo expansion to large numbers scFvFczeta+ TCRalpha/beta+ CD4- CD8+ CTL display re-directed HLA-unresricted CD20-specific lymphoma cell cytolysis proportional to the cell-surface density of the chimeric immunoreceptor. Engineered CTL clones are also activated through the chimeric immunoreceptor to produce Tc1 cytokines (IFN-gamma) upon co-culture with CD20+ lymphoma stimulator cells. Additionally, CD20-specific CTL proliferate in the presence of lymphoma stimulators and IL-2 (5 U/mL). DISCUSSION These studies provide the rationale for exploring the clinical utility of adoptive therapy with CD20-specific CTL as a component of immunotherapeutic targeting of CD20+ malignancy.

Abstract
A simple, water-soluble procedure for conjugation of monoclonal antibodies to 1,4,7,10-tetraazacyclododecane-N,N',N",N"'-tetraacetic acid (DOTA) has been improved by optimizing pH, buffer, and temperature conditions for the preparation of N-hydroxysulfosuccinimidyl DOTA and its conjugation to the human/murine chimeric anti-carcinoembryonic antigen antibody cT84.66. This improved method results in a 6-fold increase in conjugation efficiency, a 3-7-fold decrease in antibody cross-linking, a more homogeneous population of conjugate species, and a 5-fold decrease in the quantities of reagents needed for conjugation. The cT84.66-DOTA conjugate was labeled to high specific activity with 111In, 90Y, 88Y, 64Cu, and 67Cu, affording near-quantitative incorporation of the majority of these radiometals. This improved conjugation procedure facilitates large-scale production and radiometal labeling of cT84.66-DOTA for clinical radioimmunotherapy trials.

Abstract
Dosimetry studies in patients with non-Hodgkin's lymphoma were performed to estimate the radiation absorbed dose to normal organs and bone marrow from 90Y-Zevalin (yttrium-90 ibritumomab tiuxetan, IDEC-Y2B8) treatment in this phase I/II, multicenter trial. The trial was designed to determine the dose of Rituximab (chimeric anti-CD20, Rituxan, IDEC-C2B8, MabThera), the unlabeled antibody given prior to the radioconjugate to clear peripheral blood B cells and optimize distribution, and to determine the maximum tolerated dose of 90Y-Zevalin [7.4, 11, or 15 MBq/kg (0.2, 0.3, or 0.4 mCi/kg)]. Patients received (111)In-Zevalin (indium-111 ibritumomab tiuxetan, IDEC-In2B8 ) on day 0 followed by a therapeutic dose of 90Y-Zevalin on day 7. Both doses were preceded by an infusion of the chimeric, unlabeled antibody Rituximab. Following administration of (111)In-Zevalin, serial anterior/posterior whole-body scans were acquired. Major-organ radioactivity versus time estimates were calculated using regions of interest. Residence times were computed and entered into the MIRDOSE3 computer software program to calculate estimated radiation absorbed dose to each organ. Initial analyses of estimated radiation absorbed dose were completed at the clinical site. An additional, centralized dosimetry analysis was performed subsequently to provide a consistent analysis of data collected from the seven clinical sites. In all patients with dosimetry data (n=56), normal organ and red marrow radiation absorbed doses were estimated to be well under the protocol-defined upper limit of 20 Gy and 3 Gy, respectively. Median estimated radiation absorbed dose was 3.4 Gy to liver (range 1.2-7.8 Gy), 2.6 Gy to lungs (range 0.72-4.4 Gy), and 0.38 Gy to kidneys (range 0.07-0.61 Gy). Median estimated tumor radiation absorbed dose was 17 Gy (range 5.8-67 Gy). No correlation was noted between hematologic toxicity and the following variables: red marrow radiation absorbed dose, blood T(1/2), blood AUC, plasma T(1/2), and plasma AUC. It is concluded that 90Y-Zevalin administered at nonmyeloablative maximum tolerated doses results in acceptable radiation absorbed doses to normal organs. The only toxicity of note is hematologic and is not correlated to red marrow radiation absorbed dose estimates or T(1/2), reflecting that hematologic toxicity is dependent on bone marrow reserve in this heavily pretreated population.

Abstract
Endowing T lymphocytes with novel functional attributes by genetic modification is under development for a broad range of clinical cellular immunotherapy applications. To circumvent many of the limitations associated with viral vector systems, a plasmid-based electroporation system that reliably generates G418-resistant primary human T lymphocyte clones was developed. TCR alpha/beta+ CD4+CD8-, and CD4-CD8+ T lymphocyte clones can be routinely isolated from OKT3-stimulated peripheral blood mononuclear cells electroporated with linear plasmid DNA in a limiting dilution drug selection format. Fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) studies performed on T cell metaphase spreads using a probe specific for plasmid sequence demonstrated a single FISH signal doublet that varied in chromosomal location from clone to clone. Southern blot analysis using a Neo-specific probe verified chromosomal integration of plasmid vector at a single site. Band intensity quantitation of blots developed with a zeta-specific probe capable of annealing to both endogenous TCR-zeta and the introduced chimeric zeta sequence demonstrated that integrated plasmid was present at a single copy number. Expression levels of the CD20-specific chimeric immunoreceptor construct from a CMV immediate/early promoter present in the plasmid vector varied widely from clone to clone but remained stable during ex vivo expansion to cell numbers in excess of 10(10). This T lymphocyte genetic modification strategy is currently being piloted in a FDA-sanctioned adoptive therapy trial for recurrent lymphoma.

Abstract
PURPOSE Yttrium-90 ibritumomab tiuxetan (IDEC-Y2B8) is a murine immunoglobulin G1 kappa monoclonal antibody that covalently binds MX-DTPA (tiuxetan), which chelates the radioisotope yttrium-90. The antibody targets CD20, a B-lymphocyte antigen. A multicenter phase I/II trial was conducted to compare two doses of unlabeled rituximab given before radiolabeled antibody, to determine the maximum-tolerated single dose of IDEC-Y2B8 that could be administered without stem-cell support, and to evaluate safety and efficacy. PATIENTS AND METHODS Eligible patients had relapsed or refractory (two prior regimens or anthracycline if low-grade disease) CD20(+) B-cell low-grade, intermediate-grade, or mantle-cell non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL). There was no limit on bulky disease, and 59% had at least one mass > or = 5 cm. RESULTS The maximum-tolerated dose was 0.4 mCi/kg IDEC-Y2B8 (0.3 mCi/kg for patients with baseline platelet counts 100 to 149,000/microL). The overall response rate for the intent-to-treat population (n = 51) was 67% (26% complete response [CR]; 41% partial response [PR]); for low-grade disease (n = 34), 82% (26% CR; 56% PR); for intermediate-grade disease (n = 14), 43%; and for mantle-cell disease (n = 3), 0%. Responses occurred in patients with bulky disease (> or = 7 cm; 41%) and splenomegaly (50%). Kaplan-Meier estimate of time to disease progression in responders and duration of response is 12.9+ months and 11.7+ months, respectively. Adverse events were primarily hematologic and correlated with baseline extent of marrow involvement with NHL and baseline platelet count. One patient (2%) developed an anti-antibody response (human antichimeric antibody/human antimouse antibody). CONCLUSION These phase I/II data demonstrate that IDEC-Y2B8 radioimmunotherapy is a safe and effective alternative for outpatient therapy of patients with relapsed or refractory NHL. A phase III study is ongoing.

Abstract
Approximately 55,400 new cases of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL) are diagnosed each year, with the overall prevalence of the disease now estimated to be 243,000. Until recently, treatment alternatives for advanced disease included chemotherapy with or without external beam radiation. Based on the results of several clinical trials, the chimeric monoclonal antibody Rituximab has now been approved by the United States Food and Drug Administration as a treatment for patients with relapsed or refractory, low-grade or follicular, B-cell NHL. Several other monoclonal antibodies in conjugated and unconjugated forms have been evaluated in the treatment of NHL. Ibritumomab, the murine counterpart to Rituximab, radiolabeled with 90Y (Zevalin), is presently being evaluated in clinical trials. The success of radioimmunotherapy is dependent upon the appropriate choice of antibody, isotope, and chelator-linker. The Ibritumomab antibody targets the CD20 antigen. The antibody is covalently bound to the chelator-linker tiuxetan (MX-DTPA), which tightly chelates the isotope 90Y. To date, two Phase I/II Zevalin clinical trials have been completed in patients with low-grade, intermediate-grade, and mantle cell NHL. The overall response rate was 64% in the first trial and 67% in the later trial. Phase II and III trials are ongoing.

Abstract
UNLABELLED Monoclonal antibodies (MoAb) labeled with 90Y are being used for radioimmunotherapy. Because 90Y is a beta emitter, quantitative information from imaging is suboptimal. With the concept of a "matched pair" of isotopes, 111In is used as a surrogate markerfor90Y. We evaluated the differences in biodistribution between 111In- and 90Y-labeled murine antiTac MoAb directed against the IL-2Ralpha receptor. METHODS The antiTac was conjugated to the 2-(4-isothiocyanatobenzyl)-6-methyl-diethylenetriamine pentaacetic acid (1B4M-DTPA, also known as MX-DTPA). Nine patients with adult T-cell leukemia were treated. Patients received approximately 185 MBq (5 mCi) 111In-labeled antiTac for imaging and 185-555 MBq (5-15 mCi) 90Y-labeled antiTac for therapy. The immunoreactivity of 111In-labeled antiTac was 90%+/-6%, whereas for 90Y-labeled antiTac, it was 74%+/-12%. RESULTS The differences in blood and plasma kinetics of the two isotopes were small. The area undemeath the blood radioactivity curve was 1.91 percentage+/-0.58 percentage injected dose (%ID) x h/mL for 111In and 1.86%+/-0.64 %ID x h/mL for 90Y. Urinary excretion of 90Y was significantly greater than that of 111In in the first 24 h (P = 0.001), but later, the excretion of 111In was significantly greater (P = 0.001 to P = 0.04). Core biopsies of bone marrow showed a mean of 0.0029+/-0.0012 %ID/g for 111In, whereas the 90Y concentration was 0.0049+/-0.0021 %ID/g. Analyses of activity bound to circulating cells showed concentrations of 500-30,000 molecules of antiTac per cell. When cell-bound activity was corrected for immunoreactive fraction, the ratio of 111In to 90Y in circulating cells was 1.11+/-0.17. Three biopsies of tumor-involved skin showed ratios of 111In to 90Y of 0.7, 0.9 and 1.1. CONCLUSION This study shows that differences typically ranging from 10% to 15% exist in the biodistribution between 111In- and 90Y-labeled antiTac. Thus, it appears that 111In can be used as a surrogate marker for 90Y when labeling antiTac with the 1 B4M chelate, although underestimates of the bone marrow radiation dose should be anticipated.

Abstract
We have deleted the interchain disulfide bonds in a chimeric anti-CEA antibody (chT84.66) by mutating two cysteines in the heavy chain to glycine residues. The resulting antibody delta SSchT84.66 was expressed in high yield in a bioreactor and purified to homogeneity in a single step on an anti-idiotypic antibody affinity column. The molecular size of the antibody was 150 kDa as judged by gel filtration, SDS gel electrophoresis under non-reducing conditions, and MALDI-TOF/MS. The 150 kDa antibody had nearly identical kinetic (Kon = 1.53 x 10(6) M-1 s-1, .koff = 1.14 x 10(-5) s-1) and affinity constants (Kaff = 1.34 x 10(11) M-1) compared to the parent murine (Kaff = 1.25 x 10(11) M-1) and chimeric (Kaff = 1.16 x 10(11) M-1) antibodies when tested on biosensor chips. When delta SSchT84.66 was conjugated to the isothiocynato derivative of DTPA, radiolabeled with 111In, and injected into either normal or nude mice bearing tumor xenografts, it gave nearly identical biodistributions to chT84.66. delta SSchT84.66 and chT84.66 antibodies gave a maximum tumor uptake of 48 and 74% ID/g, and tumor to blood ratios of 5.3 and 6.2 at 48 h, respectively. We conclude that delta SSchT84.66 irreversibly associates into H2L2 dimers after concentration, that the dimers are stable under both the in vitro and in vivo conditions used in this study, and the properties of the antibody are virtually indistinguishable from the parent chT84.66 antibody.

Abstract
The CD20 molecule was evaluated as a B-cell lymphoma target epitope for T cells expressing a CD20-specific single-chain FvFc-zeta (scFvFc:zeta) chimeric receptor. A cDNA construct consisting of a murine kappa leader sequence, CD20-specific scFv, human immunoglobulin (Ig) G1 hinge-C(H)2-C(H)3, the human CD4 transmembrane, and the intracellular signaling domain of the human CD3 complex's zeta chain was synthesized by polymerase chain reaction splice-overlap extension. The human CD4+ Jurkat cell line was electroporated with the CD20-specific scFvFc:zeta construct cloned into the mammalian expression vector pcDNAneo. Western blot analysis of transfectant whole cell lysate with an anti-zeta antibody demonstrated the expression of both endogenous zeta and the chimeric receptor protein, with a mobility consistent with the expected molecular weight of 66 kD under reducing conditions; nonreduced lysate revealed a chimeric receptor complex of approximately 132 kD. The scFvFc:zeta receptor was present on the cell surface as detected by flow cytometry of T-cell transfectants stained with an anti-mouse Fab-specific antibody and anti-human Fc gamma-specific monoclonal antibody. Coculture of Jurkat transfectants with CD20+ lymphoma cells resulted in the accumulation of interleukin (IL)-2 in culture supernatants as detected by ELISA. IL-2 production was triggered by the specific interaction between the CD20 molecule and the scFvFc:zeta as IL-2 was not detected in cultures with mock transfected Jurkat cells or CD20- stimulator cells. Furthermore, IL-2 production was inhibited by the addition of a soluble anti-CD20 monoclonal antibody to cocultured Jurkat transfectants and CD20+ stimulator cells. The capacity of CD20 to trigger the lytic machinery of scFvFc:zeta-expressing cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTLs) was assessed using the murine allo-specific CD8+ CTL clone 2c. CD20-specific redirected cytolytic activity against human lymphoma targets was observed with 2c transfectants in a 4-hour chromium release assay. These results demonstrate that CD20 can serve as a target epitope for scFvFc:zeta receptor-expressing T cells.

Abstract
A novel engineered antibody fragment (VL-VH-CH3, or "minibody") with bivalent binding to carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) was produced by genetic fusion of a T84.66 (anti-CEA) single-chain antibody (scFv) to the human IgG1 CH3 domain. Two designs for the connecting peptide were evaluated. In the T84.66/212 LD minibody, a two-amino acid linker (generated by fusion of restriction sites) was used to join VH and CH3. In the T84.66/212 Flex minibody, the human IgG1 hinge plus an additional 10 residues were used as the connecting peptide. Size exclusion chromatography of purified minibodies demonstrated that both proteins had assembled into Mr80,000 dimers as expected. Furthermore, analysis by SDS-PAGE under nonreducing conditions was consistent with disulfide bond formation in the hinge of the T84.66 Flex minibody. Purified minibodies retained high affinity for CEA (KA, 2 x 10(9) M(-1)) and demonstrated bivalent binding to antigen. Tumor targeting properties were evaluated in vivo using athymic mice bearing LS174T human colon carcinoma xenografts. 123I-labeled T84.66 minibodies demonstrated rapid, high tumor uptake, reaching 17% injected dose/gram (%ID/g) for the LD minibody and 33%ID/g for the Flex minibody at 6 h following injection. Radioiodinated minibody also cleared rapidly from the circulation, yielding high tumor:blood uptake ratios: 44.5 at 24 h for the LD minibody and 64.9 at 48 h for the Flex minibody. Rapid localization by the T84.66/212 Flex minibody allowed imaging of xenografts at 4 and 19 h after administration.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Genetic engineering can produce novel antibody fragments with improved properties for applications such as tumor targeting in vivo. OBJECTIVES To produce stable monomeric (27 kDa) and dimeric (55 kDa) forms of a single-chain Fv (scFv) from the anti-carcinoembryonic antigen (anti-CEA) antibody T84.66, and assess the targeting and biodistribution properties in an animal model. STUDY DESIGN ScFv were constructed with either a 28 or 14 amino acid connecting peptide and expressed by secretion from E. coli. Following affinity purification, proteins were characterized by gel electrophoresis and mass spectrometry. Binding properties were assessed by size exclusion HPLC after incubation with antigen, and affinities determined by surface plasmon resonance. The shorter linker favored formation of dimers (and higher multimers) which showed unusual stability. ScFv were radiolabeled with 125I for tumor targeting and biodistribution studies of monomeric or dimeric forms were conducted in athymic mice bearing LS174T human colorectal carcinoma xenografts. RESULTS 125I-scFv monomers and dimers targeted exhibited rapid clearance kinetics in tumor-bearing mice. Nevertheless, the anti-CEA scFvs targeted very well to xenografts, leading to high tumor: normal organ ratios (greater than 20:1 at 24 h) for both forms. Tumor localization of the non-covalent dimers was much higher than monomers, reaching 10-15% injected dose per gram at 1 h. CONCLUSION Non-covalent dimers of scFv (also known as diabodies) are stable, easy to produce and show excellent targeting as compared to monomeric scFv, probably due to increased mass and valency.

Abstract
Carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) is expressed in approximately 60% of breast carcinomas. T84.66 is a well characterized anti-CEA murine monoclonal antibody (MAb) that does not cross-react with other CEA-related proteins. It has been humanized and used extensively after radiolabeling in clinical/experimental protocols for localization/therapy of colorectal cancer. MCF-7 human breast cancer cell line expresses CEA and is tumorigenic in athymic mice. In order to determine if anti-CEA MAb could specifically target breast cancer CEA, biodistribution, radiolocalization and therapy studies were performed in the animal model. Five tumor-bearing animals per time point were injected with 15 muCi of In-111-cT84.66. Mice were imaged and sacrificed at 24, 48, 72 and 144 h and biodistribution studies performed. For therapy studies, 19 tumor-bearing mice were injected either with 120 muCi of 90Y-cT84.66 or PBS. The tumors were measured tri-weekly and weighed at autopsy 21 days post therapy. Activity accumulation steadily increased in the tumors reaching 21% of the injected dose per gram of tumor (ID/g) at 144 h. At that time, the %ID/g in the tumor was 3 times higher than that in blood and the liver and 8 times higher than in other major organs. On day 10 post-therapy, 16 of the 19 control mice had tumor volumes between 1 and 3 cm3, while none of the treated tumors ever reached 1 cm3 in size. At autopsy, a 12-fold tumor weight difference (p=0.0001) was observed between control and treated mice (2.4g vs. 0.2g average weight, respectively). In summary, breast cancer CEA was specifically targeted with T84.66 allowing good tumor localization as well as significant tumor growth inhibition. Given the significant expression of CEA in breast cancer, this tumor should be included into the CEA-expressing malignancies for targeting with anti-CEA MAbs.

Abstract
PURPOSE Hematopoietic toxicity is the dose-limiting factor for radioimmunotherapeutic regimens. Cytokines have been shown to decrease hematopoietic toxicity in animals exposed to whole-body irradiation. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of murine gamma-interferon (gamma-IFN) on survival and hematopoietic toxicity in mice treated with high dose 90yttrium labeled anticarcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) monoclonal antibody. METHODS AND MATERIALS Balb/c nu/nu mice were injected intravenously with 250 Ci 90Y-T84.66 (a murine anti-CEA monoclonal antibody). Thirty thousand units of gamma-IFN was administered i.v. 24 h later. Control mice received either 250 Ci 90Y-T84.66 alone or 30,000 units gamma-IFN alone. Survival, antibody biodistribution, and bone marrow histologic studies were then performed. RESULTS Only 7% of the animals treated with 90Y-T84.66 survived up to 40 days posttreatment, when the study was terminated. In contrast, 52% of the mice treated with both 90Y-T84.66 and gamma-IFN survived 40 days posttherapy. No toxic deaths were seen in the control group administered gamma-interferon alone. Histologic examination of the bone marrow of animals receiving 90Y-T84.66 and gamma-IFN showed cellular depletion of 40-70% of the hematopoietic cells by 48 h. Cell depletion was 50-70% and 20% by 72 h and 8 days posttherapy, respectively. The marrow of the 90Y-T84.66-treated control group was depleted to a level of 50-80% at 48 h, and remained depleted at 90% at 72 h and 8 days posttherapy. No marrow cell reduction was seen in the gamma-IFN-only treated group. Biodistribution studies showed no alterations in antibody biodistribution or kinetics that could account for the changes in bone marrow toxicity after gamma-IFN. CONCLUSION These results demonstrate that gamma-IFN can reduce the hematologic toxicity resulting from high dose radioimmunotherapy. Histologic studies of bone marrow suggest that gamma-IFN acts primarily to accelerate myelorestoration of the bone marrow. Further studies exploring the use of gamma-IFN as an adjunct to radioimmunotherapy are therefore warranted.

Abstract
We have developed a method for attachment of the macrocyclic chelating agent 1,4,7,10-tetraazacyclododecane N,N',N",N"'-tetraacetic acid (DOTA) to proteins by activation of a single carboxyl group with N-hydroxysulfosuccinimide (sulfo-NHS). The sulfo-NHS active ester of DOTA was prepared in a single step using 1-ethyl-3-[3-(dimethylamino)propyl]carbodiimide (EDC), and DOTA conjugates of cytochrome c and the anti-carcinoembryonic antigen chimeric monoclonal antibody cT84.66 were prepared by adding the DOTA active ester reaction mixture to the proteins at pH 8.5-9.0. Mass spectrometry of the cytochrome c conjugates showed that as the molar ratio of DOTA active ester to protein in the reaction mixture was increased from 10:1 to 100:1, the average number of chelators attached to the protein molecule increased from 2.64 to 8.79. When DOTA active ester reacted with the antibody at a molar ratio of 100:1, the conjugate averaged 3.8 chelates per antibody. Immunoreactivity of the antibody conjugate radiolabeled with 111In(III) and 90Y(III) remained quantitative. Variation of the DOTA:sulfo-NHS:EDC activation stoichiometry from 2:2:1 to 10:10:1 revealed that the kinetic stability of the radioconjugates increased as the molar ratio of carbodiimide, relative to DOTA and sulfo-NHS, was decreased. Radiolabeling of the protein conjugates with 111In(III) and 90Y(III) proved to be sensitive to pH, buffer, and temperature effects. The optimum pH for the labeling reaction was different for each protein and may be related to the isoelectric point of the protein. Radiometal incorporation at high specific activity was accomplished in acetate and Tris buffers, but the presence of citrate inhibited the labeling reaction. Increasing the temperature of the radiolabeling reaction from 25 to 43 degrees C greatly increased both the efficiency of radiometal incorporation and the kinetic stability of the radioconjugates. Stability studies of the conjugates in human serum and in the presence of a 5000- to 250,000-fold excess of diethylenetriaminepentaacetic acid (DTPA) demonstrated that the radiolabeled proteins are kinetically inert under physiological conditions. In serum, the 111In(III)-labeled antibody showed a rate of radiometal loss of approximately 0.08% per day. In the presence of excess DTPA, both conjugates lost 111In(III) at a rate of about 0.3% per day. No loss of 90Y(III) from the conjugates was observed in serum, but in excess DTPA, both 90Y(III) labeled proteins showed a rate of radiometal loss of approximately 0.2% per day. Therefore, kinetic analysis of metal loss from a radiolabeled immunoconjugate in the presence of a vast excess of DTPA may provide a better indication of the in vivo stability of that immunoconjugate than serum stability studies.

Abstract
Radioimmunotherapy using monoclonal antibodies is a promising investigational treatment modality for solid tumors. Use of radiation-enhancing agents could significantly impact on the therapeutic response of this treatment. We evaluated the potential interaction of a known radiation-enhancing agent, 5-fluorouracil (5-FU), with the radioimmunotherapeutic effect of a yttrium-90 (90Y)-labeled monoclonal antibody in a human adeno-carcinoma xenograft. Athymic mice were inoculated subcutaneously with the human colon carcinoma cell line LS-174T. All mice had intraperitoneal 3-day osmotic infusion pumps placed by laparotomy. Half of the pumps were filled with 0.9% saline solution and half were filled with a solution containing 5-FU. Three activity levels of 90Y-radiolabeled CC49 antibody were injected into tail veins of the mice. Each activity level was injected into a group of animals with saline-filled pumps and a group with 5-FU-filled pumps. A significant interaction between treatment group and time was found suggesting that the rate of tumor growth for the group of animals receiving 90Y at 100 microCi plus 5-FU compared to the group of animals receiving 90Y alone was significantly delayed (P = 0.0055), showing a radiation enhancing effect by 5-FU. These results suggest that the addition of the radiation-enhancing agent 5-FU to radiolabeled antibody may increase the ability to treat solid tumors. Further investigations with other antibodies, radionuclides, and tumor models are indicated.

Abstract
Increasing numbers of patients are surviving Hodgkin's disease in their youth, creating an ever larger cohort who need careful attention to long-term preventive medicine in their older years. Vigilance is especially needed for those who received laparotomy, splenectomy, and irradiation for early stage I through stage III disease, the majority of whom are destined to be long-term survivors. With the frequent migration of the young, these patients often fall under the care of a physician other than their original oncologist. The diligent internist, oncologist, emergency room physician, and general practitioner can avoid several simple pitfalls in the long-term care of these young patients now entering middle age.

Abstract
The study population included 136 patients with stage IA, IB, IIA, IIB, or IIIA1 Hodgkin's disease. The median follow-up is 7.5 years. Among the 30 patients with peripheral IA disease, all patients achieved a complete response (CR) with radiation therapy, and no patient has relapsed. Patients of other stages were randomized to receive radiation therapy or mechlorethamine, vincristine, procarbazine, and prednisone (MOPP). Among the 51 patients randomized to receive radiation therapy, 49 (96%) achieved complete remission, 17 (35%) have relapsed, and 10 (20%) have died. Fifty-two of the 54 (96%) assessable patients randomized to receive MOPP obtained CRs, seven (13%) have relapsed, and four (7%) have died. The projected 10-year disease-free survival of patients randomized to receive radiation therapy is 60%; for those randomized to receive MOPP, it is 86% (P2 = .009 in favor of MOPP). The projected 10-year overall survival for patients randomized to radiation therapy is 76%, and for MOPP-treated patients it is 92% (P2 = .051 in favor of MOPP). When the randomized patients with massive mediastinal disease or stage IIIA1 disease were excluded from the analysis, the disease-free (67% for radiation v 82% for MOPP) and overall survival (85% for radiation v 90% for MOPP) were not significantly different between the two arms. Subset analysis showed significant superiority of MOPP in the treatment of the following patient groups: stage IIIA1 or massive mediastinal disease, no B symptoms, initial erythrocyte sedimentation rate greater than 20 mm, four or more sites of disease, and younger than age 40 years. Preliminary analysis of this ongoing study shows that MOPP chemotherapy is at least as effective as radiation therapy in the treatment of the specific groups of early-stage Hodgkin's disease patients randomized. The final assessment of these two diverse treatment options will depend largely on the long-term survival and the incidence of early- and late-treatment complications for which patients are continuing to be observed.

Abstract
The administration of [131I]B72.3 MAb for both diagnostic and therapeutic purposes is followed by the development of human anti-mouse antibodies (HAMA) in approx. 70% of patients receiving i.v. doses of MAb above 1 mg. The presence of HAMA in circulation interferes in the detection of the tumor-associated glycoprotein TAG-72 using the CA 72-4 RIA. We have reported elsewhere (Ferroni et al., 1990) that heat treatment at 90 degrees C, pH 6.5, for 15 min is capable of precipitating and/or inactivating HAMA without causing any significant loss in antigen recovery. Furthermore, the removal of the interfering activity leads to a more correct evaluation of TAG-72 serum levels in HAMA-positive serum samples and to a continued use of TAG-72 in the follow-up of patients undergoing MAb-based clinical protocols.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To describe the incidence of non-Hodgkin lymphoma in a group of patients with symptomatic human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection receiving long-term dideoxynucleoside antiretroviral therapy. DESIGN We examined the records of all patients with the acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) or severe AIDS-related complex who were entered into three long-term phase I trials of zidovudine (azidothymidine, AZT) or zidovudine-containing regimens at the National Cancer Institute between 1985 and 1987. SETTING The Warren G. Magnuson Clinical Center, National Institutes of Health, Bethesda, Maryland. PARTICIPANTS Fifty-five HIV-infected patients with AIDS or severe AIDS-related complex. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS Eight of fifty-five patients (14.5%; 95% CI, 6.5% to 26.7%) developed a high-grade non-Hodgkin lymphoma of B-cell type, a median of 23.8 months (range, 13 to 35 months) after starting antiretroviral treatment. Using the method of Kaplan and Meier, the estimated probability of developing lymphoma by 30 months of therapy was 28.6% (CI, 13.7% to 50.3%) and by 36 months, 46.4% (CI, 19.6% to 75.5%). The patients who developed lymphoma had less than 100 T4 cells/mm3 for a median of 17.8 months (range, 7 to 35 months) and less than 50 T4 cells/mm3 for a median of 15.3 months (range, 5.5 to 35 months) before the diagnosis. All patients presented with non-Hodgkin lymphoma in extranodal sites, and two developed primary brain involvement in the setting of Toxoplasma infection. CONCLUSION Patients with symptomatic HIV infection who survive for up to 3 years on antiretroviral therapy may have a relatively high probability of developing non-Hodgkin lymphoma. Prolonged survival in the setting of profound immunosuppression with substantial T4-cell depletion is probably an important factor in the development of these lymphomas. However, a direct role of therapy itself cannot be totally discounted. As improved therapies for the treatment of HIV infection and its complications result in prolonged survival, non-Hodgkin lymphoma may become an increasingly significant problem.

Abstract
Tumor targeting by monoclonal antibodies (MAbs) can be enhanced by (a) increasing the percentage of injected dose taken up by the tumor and/or (b) increasing the tumor:nontumor ratios. Several groups have demonstrated that one can increase tumor to nontumor ratios by the use of antibody fragments or the administration of second antibodies. Several other modalities are also possible: (a) the use of recombinant interferons to up-regulate the expression of specific tumor associated antigens such as carcinoembryonic antigen or TAG-72 on the surface of carcinoma cells and thus increase MAb tumor binding has proved successful in both in vitro and in vivo studies; (b) the intracavitary administration of MAbs. Recent studies have demonstrated that when radiolabeled B72.3 is administered i.p. to patients with carcinoma of the peritoneal cavity, it localizes tumor masses with greater efficiency than does concurrent i.v. administered antibody. Studies involving the comparative pharmacology of intracavitary administration of radiolabeled MAb in patients and several animal models will be discussed; (c) it has been reported that prior exposure of hepatoma to external beam radiation will increase radiolabeled MAb tumor targeting. We and others have not been able to duplicate this phenomenon with a human colon cancer xenograft model and radiolabeled MAbs to two different colon carcinoma associated antigens. The possible reasons for these differences will be discussed; (d) the cloning and expression of recombinant MAbs with human constant regions and subsequent size modification constructs will also undoubtedly alter the pharmacology of MAb tumor binding in both diagnostic and therapeutic applications.

Abstract
One factor that is critical to the potential effectiveness of radioimmunotherapy is the design of radiometal-chelated antibodies that will be stable in vivo. Stability in vivo depends on the condition that both the chelate linkage and radiolabeling procedures not alter antibody specificity and biodistribution. In addition, synthesis and selection of the chelating agent is critical for each radiometal in order to prevent inappropriate release of the radiometal in vivo. In the present study, we compare the in vivo stability of seven radioimmunoconjugates that use different polyaminocarboxylate chelating agents to complex yttrium-88 to the mouse anti-human interleukin-2 receptor monoclonal antibody, anti-Tac. Chelate linkage and radiolabeling procedures did not alter the immunospecificity of anti-Tac. In order to assess whether yttrium was inappropriately released from the chelate-coupled antibody in vivo, iodine-131-labeled and yttrium-88 chelate-coupled antibodies were simultaneously administered to the same animals to correlate the decline in yttrium and radioiodinated antibody activity. The four stable yttrium-88 chelate-coupled antibodies studied displayed similar iodine-131 and yttrium-88 activity, indicating minimal elution of yttrium-88 from the complex. In contrast, the unstable yttrium-88 chelate-coupled antibodies had serum yttrium-88 activities that declined much more rapidly than their iodine-131 activities, suggesting loss of the radiolabel yttrium-88 from the chelate. Furthermore, high rates of yttrium-88 elution correlated with deposition in bone. Four chelating agents emerged as promising immunotherapeutic reagents: isothiocyanate benzyl DTPA and its derivatives 1B3M, MX, and 1M3B. All four isothiocyanate agents showed prolonged yttrium-88 vascular survival which was essentially identical to that of their iodine-131 activity with only minimum accumulation (1.4-1.8%/g) of the yttrium-88 injected dose into bone. Thus, these four chelating agents were very stable in vivo and suitable for yttrium-monoclonal antibody radioimmunotherapy.

Abstract
The biodistribution of yttrium- and indium-labeled monoclonal antibody (MAb) B72.3 IgG using three different chelate conjugates (SCN-Bz-EDTA, CA-DTPA, and SCN-Bz-DTPA) was compared in athymic mice bearing LS-174T tumors. The 88Y-SCN-Bz-DTPA-B72.3 yielded 40% ID/g at 5-7 days in the tumors, while the 88Y-SCN-Bz-EDTA-B72.3 and 88Y-CA-DTPA-B72.3 showed only 6-8% ID/g. The yttrium uptake in the bone with the SCN-Bz-EDTA and CA-DTPA conjugated IgG was over 14 and 11% ID/g, respectively, while 88Y-SCN-Bz-DTPA-B72.3 showed only 3% ID/g. In contrast, the 111In-labeled B72.3 uptake in the bone with all three chelate conjugates was 2-3% ID/g. The differences in yttrium- versus indium-labeled MAb biodistributions demonstrate the difficulty in using 111In-labeled MAbs to predict the biodistribution and dosimetry of 90Y-labeled MAbs unless chelate conjugates such as SCN-Bz-DTPA are used.

Abstract
B72.3 is a murine monoclonal antibody (IgG1) that recognizes a tumor-associated glycoprotein, termed TAG-72. B72.3 has been shown, using a variety of methodologies, to have a high degree of selective reactivity for colorectal, ovarian, lung, and breast carcinomas. Radiolabeled B72.3 has been administered both i.v. and i.p. in patients with colorectal and ovarian cancer as well as other carcinomas and has been shown to selectively bind to approximately 70-80% of metastatic lesions. Greater than 50% of the patients that have been treated with B72.3 have developed an immunological response to murine IgG after a single injection. In an attempt to minimize the immune response of these patients to the administered murine monoclonal antibody, we developed a recombinant form of the murine B72.3 as well as a recombinant/chimeric antibody, using the variable regions of the murine B72.3 and human heavy chain (gamma 4) and light chain (kappa) constant regions. We report here that both the recombinant B72.3 [rB72.3] and the recombinant/chimeric B72.3 [cB72.3(gamma 4)] IgGs maintain the tissue binding and idiotypic specificity of the native murine IgG. The native B72.3, rB72.3, and cB72.3(gamma 4) IgGs were radiolabeled and the biodistribution of these IgGs was studied in athymic mice bearing human colon carcinoma xenografts (LS-174T). Differences were observed between the cB72.3(gamma 4) and the native B72.3 in the percentage of injected dose/g that localized in the tumor. The somewhat lower absolute amounts of the cB72.3(gamma 4) in the tumor are mostly likely due to the observed more rapid clearance from the blood and body of the mouse as compared to the native B72.3 and rB72.3. All three forms [native B72.3, rB72.3, and cB72.3(gamma 4)] of the IgG, however, were able to localize the colon tumor with similar radiolocalization indices [percentage of injected dose/g in tumor divided by the percentage of injected dose/g in normal tissue].

Abstract
Recent studies in animal models involving antibody tumor targeting of hepatoma and melanoma and clinical trials involving hepatoma patients have suggested that preirradiation of tumors may enhance antibody tumor targeting. These reports led us to study the effect of external irradiation on monoclonal antibody (MAb) targeting of human carcinomas; as a model system, we used MAb B72.3 and the LS-174T human colon carcinoma xenograft in athymic mice. LS-174T tumors exposed to 300 cGy grew to approximately 93% the size of non-irradiated tumors, while those exposed to 600, 900, or 2,000 cGy were approximately 41% the size of control tumors. Splitting the 900 cGy into three 300-cGy fractions yielded a two-fold lower tumor volume compared with a single 900-cGy fraction. Histochemical evaluation of the carcinomas revealed a decrease in the number of mitoses per high power field consistent with early effects of radiation exposure. Using the avidin-biotin complex immunoperoxidase technique, carcinomas were assayed for expression of the tumor associated glycoprotein (TAG)-72, the high-molecular-weight mucin detected by MAb B72.3. No discernable variation was observed in the staining intensity among tumors in both the control and radiation treated group; that is, differences among tumors within each group were compatible with the known heterogeneous expression of TAG-72. Exposure of carcinomas to 300 or 900 cGy in a single fraction or 900 cGy split in three 300-cGy fractions did not yield a consistent or substantial enhanced localization of radiolabeled MAb B72.3 IgG or F(ab')2 to tumors. A 1.5-fold augmentation of MAb binding to tumors was observed in preirradiated mice; however, these results were not statistically significant. Inherent differences in tumors such as cell type of origin, size, spatial configuration, extent of vascularization and volume of interstitial space may contribute to variability of the effect of preirradiation of tumors on antibody binding. Our results suggest that consistent augmentation of radiolabeled antibody localization to tumors is not a universal phenomenon.

Abstract
131I-labeled monoclonal antibodies were used in therapeutic trials in two potentially useful clinical situations: disseminated melanoma (intravenously administered Fab fragments; 21 patients) and disseminated peritoneal adenocarcinomatosis (intraperitoneal injection of IgG; 5 patients). Acute toxicity observed is consistent with mild bone marrow suppression of acute radiation syndrome and the observed toxicity is dose related in a manner that conforms to the expected human response to total body irradiation. For single doses of both i.p. administered and intravenously administered 131I-labeled anti-tumor antibodies, 100 rad to red marrow, calculated by the absorbed dose fraction method (MIRD), appeared to be a threshold below which significant acute toxicity was unlikely.

Abstract
B72.3 is a mouse hybridoma cell-line secreting an IgG1 antibody which recognises an epitope on a tumour-associated antigen, TAG-72. This high molecular weight mucin-like molecule is found on a variety of human neoplasms, including colon, breast and ovarian carcinomas. Chimaeric immunoglobulin genes with the B72.3 specificity have been constructed by joining the mouse variable regions from cDNA clones to human genomic constant regions using recombinant DNA techniques. The chimaeric heavy and light chain immunoglobulin genes were placed under the control of a strong viral promoter, and co-transfected into COS-1 cells. SDS-PAGE analysis of the 35S-labelled products demonstrated that the transiently expressed antibodies were correctly synthesised and assembled. The specific binding characteristics of the parent B72.3 antibody were retained by the chimaeric antibody in an antigen-based ELISA. This system gave sufficiently high transient expression of the chimaeric antibody molecules to allow rapid physical and immunological characterisation of the engineered gene products.

Abstract
We have studied the process of transferrin endocytosis in human erythromyeloid cell line K562 using fluorescein (FL) and rhodamine (RD) labeled iron-saturated transferrin (FeTF), and a fluorescein labeled monoclonal antibody to the transferrin receptor (FL-mAB). Because the antireceptor antibody and FeTF bind to different sites on the TF receptor molecule, it is possible to simultaneously and independently follow receptor and ligand. We have measured the relative amounts of transferrin or antireceptor antibody bound in the presence or absence of proteolytic enzymes using a cell sorter. At 4 degrees C almost all of the FL-TF and the FL-mAB is surface bound in a diffuse pattern. Within minutes of elevating the temperature to 37 degrees C surface aggregates form and the FL-TF is internalized. At this time about one sixth of the transferrin is still surface bound and accessible to papain digestion. The remainder localizes in a perinuclear cluster of vesicles. Monoclonal antibody binds to the cell surface transferrin receptor but is not internalized at 4 degrees C or 37 degrees C. When unlabeled diferric transferrin is added, it promotes the uptake of the Fl-mAB. The addition of goat anti-mouse immunoglobulin also promotes FL-mAB uptake. These studies support the concept that a specific trigger is required for transferrin receptor endocytosis.

Abstract
A human monoclonal antibody with anti-A specificity was generated by Epstein-Barr virus transformation of lymphocytes isolated from splenic tissue after in vitro stimulation with group A red blood cells. This antibody is of the IgM class and directly agglutinates group A red blood cells. Type A1, A2, Aint, A3, AX, Aend and A5 cells were agglutinated by the reagent indicating a single determinant is shared by these A subgroups.

Abstract
B lymphocytes specifically reactive to the hapten fluorescein (FLU) were prepared from normal adult murine spleen by the hapten-gelatin affinity procedure. They were placed in 10 microliter of microcultures singly or in small numbers in the absence of any feeder, filler, or accessory cell. The "T cell-independent" antigen FLU-conjugated polymerized flagellin (FLU-POL) or a selected batch of FLU-conjugated Ficoll were used, and these stimulated division and differentiation only in the concomitant presence of lymphokines acting as B-cell growth and differentiation factors (BGDF). It was found that human interleukin 2 (IL-2), prepared by recombinant DNA technology (r-IL-2), was an effective, albeit rather weak, BGDF in this system. When an IL-2-free source of BGDF was used with the antigenic stimulus, addition of r-IL-2 did not augment the response, nor did removal of IL-2 from the crude lymphokine mixture diminish the BGDF activity.

Abstract
A human-mouse cell line that is hypoxanthine-aminopterin-thymidine sensitive and ouabain resistant was derived from a fusion between human B lymphocytes and a mouse myeloma line. This new mutant, when fused to a relatively unstable EBV-transformed B cell secreting a human monoclonal anti-A (red blood cell antigen) antibody, resulted in stable hybridomas capable of long term production of the specific human monoclonal antibody. Furthermore, some of the hybrid clones secreted antibody in far greater titer than the original EBV cell line. We conclude that fusion to this human-mouse line is an efficient approach to the production of human monoclonal alloantibodies and an effective method of 'rescuing' secretion of desired antibody from EBV cell lines.
