Zusammenfassung:PURPOSE:To obtain a carcinostatic agent event having excellent activity in vivo and in vitro by using a complex of an anti-CEA human-type monoclonal antibody and a cytotoxic substance as an active component. CONSTITUTION:This carcinostatic contains, as an active component, a complex (immunotoxin) of (A) an anti-CEA human-type monoclonal antibody S-97 produced by a hybridoma strain BSRF-S-97 and (B) a cytotoxic substance consisting of at least one kind of substances selected from cytotoxin (e.g pseudomonas exotoxin), a chemotherapeutic agent and a radioactive substance. The monoclonal antibody to CEA (carcinoembryonic antigen) is useful for the synthesis of an in vivo diagnostic or therapeutic agent for CEA-producing cancer such as digestive tract cancer and pulmonary cancer. Especially, an immunotoxin having CEA-producing cancer as the target has cytotoxic activity specific to CEA-producing gastric cancer cell strain and exhibits strong anticancer effect against the CEA-producing gastric cancer strain obtained by transplanting the immunotoxin to a nude mouse. The anti-CEA human-type monoclonal antibody is produced by establishing and culturing anti-CEA antibody-producing human.
