Abstract: A method of treating tumors, such as prostate tumors, breast tumors, non-Hodgkin's lymphoma, and the like, includes the sequential steps of administering to the patient at least one dose of an antiangiogenic cyclo-arginine-glycine-aspartic acid-containing pentapeptide (cRGD pentapeptide); administering to the patient an anti-tumor effective amount of a radioimmunotherapeutic agent (RIT); and then administering to the patient at least one additional dose of cRGD pentapeptide. The cRGD pentapeptide is preferably cyclo-(Arg-Gly-Asp-D-Phe-[N-Me]-Val), and the RIT is preferably a radionuclide-labeled chelating agent-ligand complex in which chelating agent is chemically bonded to a tumor-targeting molecule, such as a monoclonal antibody.

Abstract: The present invention relates to tumor markers that can be used for creening, for diagnosis, prognosis and dentification of subtpyes of renal cell carcinoma. The present invention also relates to the use of the identified antigenic proteins in immunoassays and to the use of the tumor markers as immunogens for stimulation of an immune response. The invention further relates to the use ofhte tumor markers for the manufacture of antibodies and antibody fusion proteins directed to the tumor markers.
