title: Monoclonal antibodies in the diagnosis and treatment of carcinoma of the breast.
abstract: In relative terms, biologic research with Mab has reached early middle age. Information on the behavior of Mab in disease of the breast is interesting--indeed, tantalizing--in many areas, but practical applications for diagnosis and treatment are not yet available. The evidence implies that it will be forthcoming.
