Abstract
To evaluate whether In-111 capromab pendetide (an antibody conjugate directed to a glycoprotein found primarily on the cell membrane of prostate tissue) radioimmunoscintigraphy can localize residual or metastatic prostatic carcinoma in 15 patients after prostatectomy and lymphadenectomy for prostatic carcinoma with rising serum prostate-specific antigen. One patient with 0.6 ng/ml serum prostate-specific antigen had normal imaging results and 14 patients had scintigraphic evidence of residual prostatic bed or metastatic prostatic carcinoma. Two patients with borderline abnormal bone scans had abnormal activity in the same regions on In-111 capromab pendetide images. All patients had negative radiographic abdominal and pelvic cross-sectional prestudy images, and there were no adverse effects related to In-111 capromab pendetide infusion and little human antimouse antibody response.
