The development of stable chelating agents for metal isotopes (e.g., 90Y) such as CITC-DTPA, a benzyl-analog of DTPA, allowed us to evaluate the efficacy of 90Y-labeled HMFG1 MAb administered intraperitoneally in patients with ovarian cancer. Our previous studies of 90Y-HMFG1 antibody, however, showed that all patients developed anti-chelate antibody responses (to the macrocycle benzyl-DOTA), resulting in clinical side effects in a significant percentage of this group. METHODS We evaluated the immunogenicity of CITC-DTPA (administered to 12 patients as 90Y-HMFG1-CITC-DTPA after coupling it to HSA using solid-phase ELISA. RESULTS Eleven of 12 evaluable patients developed anti-CITC-DTPA antibodies. Five patients (approximately 40%) developed hypersensitivity syndrome, most likely due to a type III immune reaction (serum sickness). Most patients had a low titer of pre-existing anti-chelate response which correlated positively with post-therapy response levels (p = 0.001). IgM anti-CITC-DTPA antibodies developed 2 wk while IgG antibodies developed 3 wk after treatment. Western blot analysis of post-therapy sera revealed a reaction with HSA-CITC-DTPA (60 kDa band) and no reaction with HSA or HSA-DTPA, whereas pre-therapy sera of the same patients were negative to all antigens. CONCLUSIONS CITC-DTPA is immunogenic in patients after intraperitoneal administration of 90Y-CITC-DTPA labeled MAbs. Self-limiting clinical side effects consistent with a serum sickness-like immune reaction were observed in 5 of 12 patients.

D007075	Immunoglobulin M	A class of immunoglobulin bearing mu chains (IMMUNOGLOBULIN MU-CHAINS). IgM can fix COMPLEMENT. The name comes from its high molecular weight and originally was called a macroglobulin.	Gamma Globulin, 19S,IgM,IgM Antibody,IgM1,IgM2,19S Gamma Globulin,Antibody, IgM
D010051	Ovarian Neoplasms	Tumors or cancer of the OVARY. These neoplasms can be benign or malignant. They are classified according to the tissue of origin, such as the surface EPITHELIUM, the stromal endocrine cells, and the totipotent GERM CELLS.

D004369	Pentetic Acid	An iron chelating agent with properties like EDETIC ACID. DTPA has also been used as a chelator for other metals, such as plutonium.

D004797	Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay	An immunoassay utilizing an antibody labeled with an enzyme marker such as horseradish peroxidase. While either the enzyme or the antibody is bound to an immunosorbent substrate, they both retain their biologic activity; the change in enzyme activity as a result of the enzyme-antibody-antigen reaction is proportional to the concentration of the antigen and can be measured spectrophotometrically or with the naked eye. Many variations of the method have been developed.

D000906	Antibodies	Immunoglobulin molecules having a specific amino acid sequence by virtue of which they interact only with the ANTIGEN (or a very similar shape) that induced their synthesis in cells of the lymphoid series (especially PLASMA CELLS).
