Abstract
The invention concerns murine antiidiotypic monoclonal antibodies which are the internal image of determinants recognized by a monoclonal antibody on high molecular weight-melanoma associated antigen (HMW-MAA), antibody derivatives, hybridoma cell lines secreting such antiidiotypic monoclonal antibodies, and processes for the preparation of such antiidiotypic monoclonal antibodies, of their derivatives and of the hybridoma cell lines. The murine antiidiotypic monoclonal antibodies are useful for the determination of antibodies directed against high molecular weight-melanoma associated antigen, for the modulation of the immune response to HMW-MAA and for the treatment of melanoma.
