  • Title: [Monoclonal antibodies ICO-11 in the prognostic evaluation of acute nonlymphoblastic leukemia].

    Abstract:
    The antigen detectable with monoclonal antibodies ICO-11 was studied in cells of 33 patients with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) and 47 patients with acute non-lymphoblastic leukemia (ANLL). The incidence rate of antigen-positive cases in ALL comprised 39.4%, in ANLL 35.4%. The presence of antigen in blasts in ALL did not influence the disease prognosis. The presence of ICO-11+ blasts in ANLL was characteristic of the group of patients with more favourable prognosis: a higher survival rate, due to a higher frequency of remissions, a longer life-time in the absence of remission. Basing on the clinico-hematological data ICO-11+ group could not be identified as more favourable prognostically.
