Utility of assay of alpha subunit of human chorionic gonadotropin in management of gestational trophoblastic malignancies
MM Quigley, L Tyrey, CB Hammond - American Journal of Obstetrics and …, 1980 - Elsevier
All patients who were treated with chemotherapy for malignant gestational trophoblastic
neoplasms at the Southeastern Regional Trophoblastic Disease Center and who
experienced remission during the period January 1, 1978, through December 31, 1979,
were studied in an attempt to determine if the application of an assay for the alpha subunit of
human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG-α) could predict those patients who would have
recurrences. For each patient, the first three weekly serum samples with undetectable hCG …
