Tumor marker utility grading system: a framework to evaluate clinical utility of tumor markers.
Introduction of tumor markers into routine clinical practice has been poorly controlled, with few criteria or guidelines as to how such markers should be used. We propose a Tumor Marker Utility Grading System (TMUGS) to evaluate the clinical utility of tumor markers and to establish an investigational agenda for evaluation of new tumor markers. A Tumor Marker Utility Grading Worksheet has been ...

متن کاملUtility of tumor markers in determining resectability of pancreatic cancer.
HYPOTHESIS Despite advances in preoperative radiologic imaging, a significant fraction of potentially resectable pancreatic cancers are found to be unresectable at laparotomy. We tested the hypothesis that preoperative serum levels of CA19-9 (cancer antigen) and carcinoembryonic antigen will identify patients with unresectable pancreatic cancer despite radiologic staging demonstrating resectabl...

Although a myriad of markers have been proposed for malignancy, only a minority have been adequately validated for routine clinical use. Apart from PSA in prostate cancer, markers are of little value in the detection of early malignancy. Several markers however, are currently used in the post-operative management of patients with diagnosed malignancy. Markers generally recommended for the manag...
متن کاملNCCN Task Force report: Evaluating the clinical utility of tumor markers in oncology.
The molecular analysis of biomarkers in oncology is rapidly advancing, but the incorporation of new molecular tests into clinical practice will require a greater understanding of the genetic changes that drive malignancy, the assays used to measure the resulting phenotypes and genotypes, and the regulatory processes that new molecular biomarkers must face to be accepted for clinical use. To add...
