The prognostic value of both neuron-specific enolase (NSE) and Cyfra21-1 in small cell lung cancer.
PURPOSE The aim of this study was to verify the prognostic significance of multiple tumour markers in small cell lung cancer (SCLC). PATIENTS AND METHODS We examined seven tumour markers [carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA), cancer antigen 19-9 (CA 19-9), squamous cell carcinoma antigen (SCC), neuron-specific enolase (NSE), cancer antigen 125 (CA125), cytokeratin 19 fragment (Cyfra21-1) and ProGas...
متن کاملDiagnostic utility of neuron specific enolase (NSE) in serum and pleural fluids from patients with lung cancer and tuberculosis
Several past and recent investigations have focused on the determination of tumor markers in pleural fluids to assess their usefulness as less invasive replacement method of diagnosis. In this regard, few studies have dealt with the determination of the tumor marker, neuron specific enolase (NSE), in pleural fluids of patients suffering from both benign and malignant diseases such as non small ...
متن کاملPotential utility of serum neuron-specific enolase levels in small cell carcinoma of the lung.
To assess the value of neuron-specific enolase (NSE) as a possible biomarker of small cell lung cancer, serum levels were determined by radioimmunoassay in 93 newly diagnosed untreated patients and were compared to the NSE levels of 20 healthy adult controls [9.6 +/- 0.7 (S.E.) ng/ml]. Serum NSE was elevated (greater than 20 ng/ml) in 73% of all patients including 23 of 39 (59%) with limited-st...
متن کاملSignificance of neuron-specific enolase levels before and during therapy for small cell lung cancer.
The level of serum neuron-specific enolase (NSE) has been implicated as a prognostic factor for patients with small cell lung cancer (SCLC). A prospective evaluation was undertaken to assess the prognostic significance of pretreatment NSE and treatment-induced minimum NSE values in patients with SCLC. Patients from two Phase III North Central Cancer Treatment Group trials [one for patients with...
متن کاملSystematic review and meta-analysis of the efficacy of serum neuron-specific enolase for early small cell lung cancer screening
We performed a pooled analysis of the efficacy of serum neuron-specific enolase (NSE) levels for early detection of small cell lung cancer (SCLC) in patients with benign lung diseases and healthy individuals. Comprehensive searches of several databases through September 2016 were conducted. The quality of the included studies was assessed using the Quality Assessment of Diagnostic Accuracy Stud...
