Abstract

5โ€fluorouridine (FUR), an antineoplastic agent, was sitespecifically conjugated to the carbohydrate moiety of a anticarcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) monoclonal antibody (MAb) by using aminoโ€dextran as the intermediate carrier. The final immunoconjugate contains approximately 30โ€35 molecules of FUR per molecule of immunoglobulin, has immunoreactivity retained as examined by flow cytometry, and is cytotoxic to the target cells as examined by ^75^selenomethionine incorporation studies. In the GWโ€39/nude mouse model, the conjugate remained efficient in targeting the human colonic tumor and possessed greater inhibitory growth effects on the subcutaneous tumor than free FUR or an irrelevant antibody conjugate. In addition, the reduced host toxicity of the conjugate may permit the use of this agent in a highโ€dose therapy of this tumor system.

Radioimmunotherapy in humans is limited by toxicity to normal tissues, caused by circulating radio-antibody. Second antibody directed against the first (anti-tumor) antibody accelerates clearance of first antibody from normal tissues, and may thus improve the therapeutic ratio. The effect of second

## Abstract Thromboembolic complications are frequently associated with advanced cancer. Interestingly, one of the major initiators of blood coagulation, tissue factor (TF), is reported to be overexpressed in several tumor types and can be found on both tumor cells and tumor vasculature. Although t
