The Significance of Carbohydrate Antigen 19-9, Carcinoembryonic Antigen, Calcium and Zinc as Biomarkers in Sera of Colorectal Cancer Patients [PDF]
Colorectal cancer (CRC) is a disease that begins exclusively in the colon or rectum and is caused by an abnormal proliferation of glandular epithelial cells in the colon. Carbohydrate antigen 19-9 (CA19-9), carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA), calcium (Ca),

CA 19-9 and CA 125 as potential predictors of disease recurrence in resectable lung adenocarcinoma. [PDF]
OBJECTIVES:Among patients who underwent primary surgery for non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), recurrent disease is frequent and cannot be accurately predicted solely from TNM stage and histopathological features.

Identification of blood-protein carriers of the CA 19-9 antigen and characterization of prevalence in pancreatic diseases. [PDF]
The current best serum marker for pancreatic cancer, CA 19‐9, detects a carbohydrate antigen on multiple protein carriers. Better knowledge of the protein carriers of the CA 19‐9 antigen in various disease states may lead to improved diagnostic tests. To

Assessing prognosis in metastatic pancreatic cancer by the serum tumor marker CA 19-9: Pretreatment levels or kinetics during chemotherapy? [PDF]
Background: The carbohydrate antigen 19-9 (CA 19-9) is currently the most widely used serum tumor marker in pancreatic cancer (PC). CA 19-9 pretreatment levels as well as CA 19-9 kinetics during systemic chemotherapy can provide prognostic information ...
