Monoclonal antibody-directed effector cells selectively lyse human melanoma cells in vitro and in vivo

G Schulz et al. Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A. 1983 Sep.

Abstract

Monoclonal antibody 9.2.27 (mAb 9.2.27) directed to a chondroitin sulfate proteoglycan on human melanoma cells was able to suppress tumor growth in athymic (nu/nu) mice more effectively when bound with polyethylene glycol to murine effector cells than when injected alone. These "armed" effector cells also proved more effective than the monoclonal antibody in eliciting antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity against human melanoma target cells in vitro.
