Abstract
The present invention relates to a novel monoclonal antibody reactive with human carcinoma cells. More particularly, the antibody of the invention is a monoclonal antibody reactive with a glycolipid cell membrane antigen on the surface of human carcinomas. The antibody displays a high degree of selectivity for carcinoma cells, showing a low degree of reactivity with certain normal human cells and no detectable reactivity with other types of tumors such as lymphomas, sarcomas or melanomas. In addition, the antibody of the invention is capable of internalizing within the carcinoma cells to which it binds and is therefore particularly useful for therapeutic applications, for example, as the antibody component of antibody-drug or antibody-toxin conjugates.
