Abstract
Anti-tumor activity in humans can be augmented by administering to the mammalian host a pharmacologically effective amount of mammalian IL-2 and at least one immunotoxin that binds selectively to human tumor cells. The IL-2 and immunotoxin are preferably administered separately to the host. The composition is useful for prophylactic or therapeutic treatment of such cancers as ovarian and breast cancer.
