Clinical meaning of age-related expression of fecal cytokeratin 19 in colorectal malignancy [PDF]
Background Colorectal cancer (CRC) is one of the leading causes of malignant death worldwide. Because young age of onset is often considered a poor prognostic factor for CRC, it is important to identify the poor outcomes of CRC in a younger population ...

ABSTRACT Early detection of oesophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) is critical for improving survival, yet current screening is hampered by the lack of effective, non‐invasive methods. Here, we developed and prospectively validated an extracellular vesicle (EV) protein‐based blood test for the preclinical detection of ESCC.

Clinical Significance of Serum Assay of CYFRA21-1 in Primary Lung Cancer.
原発性肺癌における新しい腫瘍マーカーであるサイトケラチン19フラグメント (CYFRA21-1) の臨床的意義を検討するため原発性肺癌患者52例と他の肺疾患患者38例, 健常者22例について血清CYFRA21-1を測定し, 他の腫瘍マ-カー (CEA, SCC, NSE) と比較検討した.cut-off値を3.5ng/mlとすると原発性肺癌における陽性率は65%, 他の肺疾患における偽陽性率は8%であった.組織型別では, 扁平上皮癌で88.9%と最も高い陽性率を示し, 腺癌でも61.5%の陽性率を示した.免疫組織学的検討では扁平上皮癌において細胞質内で均一に強陽性に染色された.臨床病期別検討では, 1期50%, II期50%, IIIA期40%, IIIB期71%, IV期72 ...

Early Cancer Detection: What's Going on and What's Next
Multicancer early detection (MCED) platforms have emerged as a promising strategy for the safe and effective early detection of multiple cancer types, with the potential to reduce metastatic burden and improve clinical outcomes, particularly for aggressive malignancies that lack effective population‐level screening.
