Abstract
Antibody to anti human chorionic gonadotropin and/or antibody to anti human chorionic gonadotropin-beta subunit labeled with technetium-99m, iodine-123, iodine-125 or iodine-131 are/is administered to a human after the human has been administered anti-hCG and/or anti-hCG beta. The biodistribution of the labeled composition accumulates at cancer sites, e.g. tumors that produce human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG), human chorionic gonadotripin-like material, and a compound similar to and/or identical to the beta-chain of chorionic gonadotropin, or mixtures thereof which would bind specifically to anti-hCG and/or anti-hCG-beta.
