In the screening examinations of 150 ore miners the positive humoral immune response against lung tumor antigen was measured in 30 serum samples. Repeated testing of positive sera (after 1-3 years) was possible only in 15 cases. Among them, the reaction of 12 serum samples was again positive, and 2 persons died of lung cancer. The results obtained in these follow-up investigations are discussed.
