Diabetic type 2 and breast cancer marker CA 15 . 3 value
نویسنده
چکیده
In this study we intended to assess the serum tumor marker CA 15.3 among diabetic females in comparison to non diabetic females without neoplasia and any other diabetic complication. Results indicate that there is statically significance between diabetic and non-diabetic females, although the levels are within the normal range of method used. It reveals that serum tumor marker CA 15.3 is useful in the monitoring purpose only.

Sensitivity and Specificity of CA 15-3 in Detection of Breast Cancer Recurrence
Background: The value of CA15-3(cancer antigen 15-3) marker in early detection of breast cancer recurrence has been studied in several prospective trials. But the results of these studies are different. This may be due to variable cutoff points used for analysis, different intervals between CA15-3 measurements and the differences between patients population. This study was done to examine the p...

Background: CA 15-3 is the most widely used serum marker in breast cancer. Currently, its main uses are in the surveillance of patients with diagnosed disease and monitoring the treatment of patients with advanced disease. Methods: Preoperative CA 15-3 concentrations were measured prospectively in 600 patients with histologically confirmed breast cancer. Marker concentrations were related to pa...
متن کاملSerum tumor markers in breast cancer: are they of clinical value?
BACKGROUND Although multiple serum-based tumor markers have been described for breast cancer, such as CA 15-3, BR 27.29 (CA27.29), carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA), tissue polypeptide antigen, tissue polypeptide specific antigen, and HER-2 (the extracellular domain), the most widely used are CA 15-3 and CEA. METHODS The literature relevant to serum tumor markers in breast cancer was reviewed. P...

UNLABELLED The aim of this study analysis was to determine the correlation between elevation of CEA and/or CA 15-3 and disease progression of metastatic breast cancer. MATERIALS AND METHODS We investigated 119 breast cancer patients who had metachronous metastases. We evaluated levels of CEA and CA 15-3 at the time of first recurrence and at every further disease progression (PD). RESULTS I...
