Individual Specific Leukocyte Antigens in Patients with Malignant Neoplasia¹

( Department of Oncology and Department of Clinical Microbiology, Rothschild Hadassah University Hospital, Hebrew University-Hadassah Medical School, Jerusalem, Israel)

The distribution of WBC antigens in patients with malignant neoplasia was compared to that of normal persons (controls). The incidence of 3 out of the 10 antigens examined showed a statistically significant difference between the 2 groups of people. This work suggests that the distribution of the histocompatibility antigens of patients with cancer may not be identical to those of healthy individuals.
