A sandwich radioimmunometric assay using monoclonal antibodies 6G10 and SV2-61 gamma directed to the extracellular domain of the c-erbB-2 oncogene product was developed and the antigen levels in sera from normal donors and patients with breast carcinoma were determined. The antigen levels in normal donors were uniformly low (9.52 +/- 0.91 ng/ml) and 3.0% (2/66 cases) slightly exceeded the cutoff value (11.4 ng/ml). In patients with breast carcinoma, serum c-erbB-2 protein levels increased and the positivity was as high as 45.7% (16/35 cases) in recurrent cases. Determination of c-erbB-2 protein may be a useful marker for serological diagnosis of breast carcinoma.
