## Abstract We have examined the application of ^90^Y‐DOTA‐cPAM4, anti‐MUC1 IgG, in combination with the front‐line drug gemcitabine as a potential therapeutic for pancreatic cancer. Athymic nude mice bearing CaPan1 human pancreatic cancer xenografts were administered 2 mg of gemcitabine on days 0,

✦ Synopsis
We examined the therapeutic efficacy of 131 I-labeled murine monoclonal antibody (MAb) PAM4 against human pancreatic cancers carried as xenografts in athymic nude mice. Animals bearing the CaPan1 tumor (0.2 cm 3 ) were either untreated or were given, 131 I-labeled nonspecific Ag8 antibody. By week 7 mean tumor size had grown 16.5 6 8.4-fold and 4.2 6 2.5-fold for the untreated and 131 I-Ag8-treated animals, respectively. In contrast, animals administered 131 I-PAM4 exhibited marked regression of tumors to an average of 15% of initial tumor volume. Since most pancreatic cancer patients present with large tumor burdens, the limitation of 131 I-PAM4 treatment with respect to initial tumor size was investigated in animals bearing tumors of approximately 0.5 cm 3 , 1.0 cm 3 and 2.0 cm 3 . Significant extension of survival time (G3-fold increase) was noted for both the 0.5 cm 3 and 1.0 cm 3 131 I-PAM4-treated groups, compared to their respective untreated controls. Even in the group bearing large 2.0-cm 3 tumors, survival was increased 2-fold over the control group. To further improve anti-tumor effects in large tumors, 2 injections of 131 I-PAM4 were administered at a 4-week interval to animals bearing tumors of approximately 1.0 cm 3 . Significant extended survival was noted for the group receiving 2 doses when compared to the group receiving only 1 dose. Int.
