Prognostic Impact of Presurgical CA19-9 Level in Pancreatic Adenocarcinoma: A Pooled Analysis
BACKGROUND: Presurgical carbohydrate antigen 19-9 (CA19-9) level predicts overall survival (OS) in resected pancreatic adenocarcinoma (PaC). The aim of this pooled analysis was to evaluate if presurgical CA19-9 level can also predict local control (LC ...

Oral capecitabine in gemcitabine-pretreated patients with advanced pancreatic cancer [PDF]
Objective: To date, no standard regimen for salvage chemotherapy after gemcitabine (Gem) failure has been defined for patients with advanced pancreatic cancer (PC). Oral capecitabine (Cap) has shown promising activity in first-line chemotherapy trials in

CA19-9 for detecting recurrence of pancreatic cancer [PDF]
AbstractCA19-9 values are regularly measured in patients with pancreatic cancer. Certainly, its potential as a biomarker has been compromised by false negative results in CA19-9 negative patients and false positive results in benign pancreatico-biliary diseases. For detection of PDAC recurrence, however, CA19-9 might play an important role.

Background Carbohydrate antigen 19–9 (CA19-9) is the most widely used biomarker for pancreatic cancer. Since CA19-9 closely correlates with patient outcome and tumor stage in pancreatic cancer, the deciphering of CA19-9 biosynthesis provides a potential ...

Combined use of AFP, CEA, CA125 and CAl9-9 improves the sensitivity for the diagnosis of gastric cancer [PDF]
BACKGROUND: The detection of serum tumor marker becomes a common method for screening tumors. However, this method has not been widely used for routine gastric cancer screening.

Urinary CE-MS peptide marker pattern for detection of solid tumors [PDF]
Urinary profiling datasets, previously acquired by capillary electrophoresis coupled to mass-spectrometry were investigated to identify a general urinary marker pattern for detection of solid tumors by targeting common systemic events associated with ...

Gemcitabine: Progress in the treatment of pancreatic cancer [PDF]
Unresectable pancreatic cancer has a dismal prognosis with a median survival of 3-5 months in untreated disease. Since the introduction of gemcitabine, pancreatic cancer may no longer be regarded a chemotherapy-resistant tumor.
