Abstract excerpt
The hprt (hypoxanthine guanine phosphoribosyltransferase) T cell cloning assay was used to detect in vivo mutations in T lymphocytes of individuals receiving radioimmunoglobulin therapy (RIT). A total of 28 patients receiving 131I and/or 90Y-labeled antiferritin antibodies was studied. Mutant frequencies for patients were clearly much higher than for historic non-treated controls (median 68.0 X 10(-6) for...
