OBJECTIVES: To describe current results with Western blot assay for prostate specific membrane antigen (PSMA) using 7E11.C5 antibody and the development of an additional antibody measurement for PSMA by a new sandwich immunoassay. METHODS: A population of patients from a screening group, from a difficult diagnostic group, from a pre- and postoperative radical prostatectomy group, and from a group with metastatic disease followed for a serial period, provided the serum values for a prospective assessment of PSMA by Western blot assay. A new monoclonal antibody was sought, reacting to the C-terminal region of PSMA in order to develop a sandwich radioimmunoassay. RESULTS: PSMA values in screened patients correlate with the more advanced stage of the cancers determined. In postprostatectomy patients, the PSMA value corresponds more with preoperative values and with the values of those with a poor clinical course. In difficult diagnostic cases, the PSMA value is increased, specifically in hormone-refractory cases and particularly in those cases judged by other criteria, such as the National Prostatic Cancer Project, to be in clinical progression compared with those judged to be in clinical remission. The level of PSMA value appears to be independent of homogeneous tumor volume and to be more related to that of prior hormone treatment, or to where prostate cancer cells can be documented to be outside the prostate. A new monoclonal antibody, 3F5.4G6, reacts with the extracellular domain of PSMA near the C-terminal region. This is in contrast to the previously measured antibody 7E11.C5, which reacts with an N-terminal epitope. 3F5.4G6 recognizes the same PSMA protein as does 7E11.C5. The epitopes are essentially at opposite ends of the molecule. The 3F5.4G6 antibody reacts with the LNCaP line but not with DU145, or PC3. These two antibodies to PSMA are well suited for use in a new sandwich immunoassay. CONCLUSIONS: PSMA provides a prostatic cancer serum test by using Western blot, which suggests a clinical prognostic value not seen with other markers. New antibodies, such as 3F5.4G6, reacting with the extracellular domain of PSMA combined with 7E11.C5, appear to offer an opportunity for a new sandwich immunoassay.
