Abstract

The present invention relates to the immunotoxines which are obtained by the covalent coupling of, on the one hand, trichosanthin or trichokirin, as such or appropriately modified with, on the other hand, an antibody or antibody fragment, used in its natural form or correctly modified, which is capable of selectively recognizing an antigen carried by the target cells to be destroyed.
