Abstract

A panel of monoclonal antibodies is developed for use in diagnosis and treatment of renal carcinoma. One monoclonal antibody F.sub.31 reacts with 80% of renal carcinoma. The area of overlap of reactivity of monoclonal antibodies F.sub.31, F.sub.23, S.sub.4, S.sub.23 and S.sub.27 is the site of origin of most renal carcinomas. Reactivity with this panel of monoclonal antibodies localizes most renal carcinoma and is a vehicle for early diagnosis and treatment.
