In another study, choriocarcinoma cells were grown in the presence of 5-bromo-2-deoxyuridine ( BrdUrd ) and results conveyed a 30-to 40-fold increase in alkaline phosphatase activity.

There are efforts in this direction in the developing countries too, and there have been improvements in these countries in the early detection of choriocarcinoma, thereby significantly reducing the mortality rate also in developing countries.

Richard Gardner, an expert on early mammalian embryo development who chaired Britain's Royal Society's working group on cloning, says that the mother could be at risk from choriocarcinoma, an unusual form of cancer unique to humans.

Through the sequential use of two drugs, methotrexate and actinomycin-D, cures were achieved in up to 90 percent of women with choriocarcinoma who were treated by 1972; 90 percent of those who were not treated died within a year.

Gestational trophoblastic disease like hydatidiform moles ( " molar pregnancy " ) or choriocarcinoma may produce high levels of ?hCG ( due to the presence of syncytialtrophoblasts-part of the villi that make up the placenta ) despite the absence of an embryo.

Detection of this hormone in urine or conception . hCG is also an important tumor marker because it is produced by some kinds of tumor, such as : seminoma, choriocarcinoma, germ cell tumors, hydatidiform mole formation, teratoma with elements of choriocarcinoma, and islet cell tumor

Results from this study further indicate that activities of this enzyme vary among the different choriocarcinoma cell lines and that the activity of the alkaline phosphatase protein in these cells is lower than in the non-malignant placenta cells . but levels are significantly higher in children and pregnant women.

Clayton-Felt finished the final mixing and production of " Spirit Touches Ground " in early December 1999, just one week before being admitted to hospital with what turned out to be choriocarcinoma ); he died at the age of 32 less than a month later.

Several years later at the National Cancer Institute, Roy Hertz and Min Chiu Li then demonstrated complete remission in women with choriocarcinoma and chorioadenoma in 1956, discovering that methotrexate alone could cure choriocarcinoma ( 1958 ), a germ-cell malignancy that originates in trophoblastic cells of the placenta.
