Serum IAP and ferritin values were measured preoperatively in 83 resectable gastric cancer patients. IAP was significantly higher in them than in normal subjects, and increased gradually with progression of cancer, and the values at stages III and IV were significantly higher than that at stage I. It was significantly higher in the cases of n(+) than in those of n(-), and in the cases of noncurative resection than in those of curative resection. Ferritin was significantly higher in them than in normal subjects and mammary cancer patients, and in males than in females, and the values at stages I and IV were significantly higher than that at stage III. OK-432 was serially administered pre- and postoperatively in 83 cases and only postoperatively in 33 cases. IAP increased markedly at 1 week postoperatively and was reduced gradually at 2 and 4 weeks. Ferritin increased markedly at 1 week after operation and reached the maximum value at 2 weeks and was reduced toward the value of 1 week at 4 weeks. However, these changes showed no significant difference between the both groups.

The cytotoxicity of human peripheral blood lymphocytes against malignant tumor cell lines was significantly inhibited by human plasma or sera. In addition to so-called blocking factors such as antigens, antibodies, antigen-antibody complexes, IAP and ferritin, some substances which could be removed by heat or centrifugation were considered to play a significant role.

Serum CA125 levels were measured by radioimmunoassay patients with various gynecological tumors. Elevated levels of CA125 were detected in the serum of patients with malignant ovarian tumors. Among patients with uterine tumors, CA125 levels were elevated in those with malignant uterine tumors, but not with uterine myomas. The correlations between tumor markers (CA125, IAP, ferritin, PTA) and malignant ovarian tumors were measured, and only CA125 levels were found to correlate with progression or regression of the disease in patients with malignant ovarian tumors. These results suggest that CA125 may be a useful marker for monitoring the response to treatment in patients with malignant ovarian tumors.
