Abstract
This invention provides a monoclonal antibody which specifically forms a complex with amino acids 1-87 of PTHLP which does not form a complex with amino acids 1-34 of PTHLP, and which forms a complex with the epitope to which any of the monoclonal antibodies produced by the hybridomas 212-10.7, (ATCC Accession No. HB9930), 199-999 (ATCC Accession No. HB9929), 199-278 (ATCC Accession No. HB9931), is directed. This invention further provides methods of detecting PTHLP and of diagnosing and treating humoral hypercalcemia of malignancy.
