The present invention relates to the field of immunology and hyperproliferative diseases. More specifically, the present invention relates to a method of detecting and monitoring therapeutic antibody:antigen complex, soluble antigen and soluble therapeutic antibody, wherein a patient has undergone at least one course of immunotherapy. Yet further, levels of therapeutic antibody:antigen complexes, soluble antigens or soluble therapeutic antibodies may be measured and used to stage or monitor a hyperproliferative disease.

What is claimed is: 1. A method for monitoring hematopoietic hyperproliferative disease in a patient with said disease comprising measuring by immunoassay the level of circulating cell free CD52 in a patient sample that comprises circulating cell-free antigens, wherein a higher level of circulating
What is claimed is: 1. A method for monitoring hematopoietic hyperproliferative disease in a patient with said disease comprising measuring by immunoassay the level of circulating cell free CD52 in a patient sample that comprises circulating cell-free antigens, wherein a higher level of circulating cell-free CD52 relative to a normal control level is indicative of aggressiveness or more advanced stage of disease. 2. The method of claim 1, wherein the hematopoietic hyperproliferative disease is selected from the group consisting of chronic lymphocytic leukemia, acute myelogenous leukemia, acute lymphoblastic leukemia, myelodysplastic syndrome, chronic myelomonocytic leukemia, juvenile myelomonocyte leukemia, multiple myeloma, T-cell chronic lymphocytic leukemia, prolymphocytic leukemia and other T-cell diseases. 3. The method of claim 1 further comprising measuring the amount of circulating cell-free CD20 in the patient sample. 4. The method of claim 3 further comprising measuring the amount of circulating cell-free CD33 in the patient sample. 5. A method of staging T cell hyperproliferative disease comprising measuring the level of circulating cell-free CD52 in a patient sample as defined by claim 1. 6. The method of claim 5, wherein the T cell hyperproliferative disease is chronic lymphocytic leukemia, acute myelogenous leukemia, acute lymphoblastic leukemia, myelodysplastic syndrome, chronic myelomonocytic leukemia, juvenile myelomonocyte leukemia, multiple myeloma, T-cell chronic lymphocytic leukemia, prolymphocytic leukemia and other T-cell diseases. 7. The method of claim 6, wherein the T cell hyperproliferative disease is chronic lymphocytic leukemia. 8. The method of claim 1 further comprising measuring the levels of circulating cell-free anti-CD52, CD52/anti-CD52 complexes or a combination thereof by a sandwich ELISA. 9. The method of claim 3 further comprising measuring the levels of circulating cell-free anti-CD20, CD20/anti-CD20 complexes or a combination thereof by a sandwich ELISA. 10. The method of claim 4 further comprising measuring the levels of circulating cell-free anti-CD33, CD33/anti-CD33 complexes or a combination thereof by a sandwich ELISA. 11. The method of claim 1, wherein the sample is serum or plasma. 12. The method of claim 1, wherein the patient is a human patient. 13. The method of claim 1, wherein the immunoassay is sandwich ELISA. 14. The method of claim 3, wherein CD20 is measured by sandwich ELISA. 15. The method of claim 4, wherein CD33 is measured by sandwich ELISA. 16. A method of monitoring hematopoietic hyperproliferative disease comprising: (a) measuring the level of circulating cell-free CD52 in a patient sample through the use of an immunoassay, wherein the sample comprises circulating cell-free antigens; and wherein the patient is undergoing treatment for a hematopoietic hyperproliferative disease; and (b) comparing the level of circulating cell-free CD52 to a normal control level of circulating cell-free CD52 to monitor the hyperproliferative disease, wherein a higher level of circulating cell-free CD52 relative to a normal control level is indicative of aggressiveness or more advanced stage of disease. 17. The method of claim 16, wherein the level of circulating cell-free CD52 in the sample is at least 3-fold over that of a normal control sample. 18. The method of claim 11 wherein said hematopoietic hyperproliferative disease is selected from the group consisting of chronic lymphocytic leukemia, acute myelogenous leukemia, acute lymphoblastic leukemia, myelodysplastic syndrome, chronic myelomonocytic leukemia, juvenile myelomonocyte leukemia, multiple myeloma, T-cell chronic lymphocytic leukemia, prolymphocytic leukemia and other T-cell diseases.
