A monoclonal antibody, C-215, against colon cancer, was internally labelled with [75Se]methionine. The biodistribution was studied in tumour-bearing nude mice and compared with the biodistribution of [131I]C-215. The tissue uptake was divided into three parts: antibody bound to the antigen, antibody in the extracellular space and uptake of the released radionuclide. [75Se]C-215 showed a greater amount of antigen-bound antibody in the tumour, but also a greater unspecific uptake both in tumour and normal tissue.
