A monoclonal antibody directed against a protein (CD20) expressed on the surface of B-lymphocytes and radiolabeled with the radioisotope I 131 with potential antineoplastic activity. Iodine I 131 tositumomab delivers radiation selectively to neoplastic CD20-expressing B-lymphocytes cells, thereby decreasing the risk of systemic radiotoxicity.
