In this study, we established an immunoassay to detect circulating autoantibodies against L1 proteins in human blood. Using this assay in >2,800 individuals with or without cancer, we observed significantly higher IgG titers against L1-encoded ORF1p and ORF2p in patients with lung, pancreatic, ovarian, esophageal, and liver cancers than in healthy  \nindividuals. Remarkably, elevated levels of anti–ORF1p-reactive IgG were observed in patients with cancer with disease stages 1 and 2, indicating that the immune response to L1 antigens can occur in the early phases of carcinogenesis. We concluded that the antibody response against L1 antigens could contribute to the diagnosis and determination of immunoreactivity of tumors among cancer types that frequently escape early detection.  \nSignificance: The discovery of autoantibodies against antigens encoded by L1 retrotransposons in patients with five poorly curable cancer types has potential implications for the detection of an ongoing carcinogenic process and tumor immunoreactivity.  \nIntroduction  \nLong interspersed nuclear element-1 (L1) is a non-long terminal repeat (non-LTR) retrotransposon comprising hundreds of thousands of copies accumulated during mammalian evolution (1) . In humans, approximately halfa million copies of L1 collectively occupy over 17% of the DNA (2) . Most of these sequences are functionally deficient because of truncations, internal rearrangements, and mutations. Only approximately 150 copies of L1 elements  \n1 Genome Protection, Inc., Buffalo, New York. 2 Roswell Park Comprehensive Cancer Center, Buffalo, New York. 3 Sanford Burnham Prebys Medical Discovery Institute, La Jolla, California. 4 I.V.
