STUDY OF DES-GAMMA-CARBOXYPROTHROMBIN (DCP) LEVELS IN CHRONIC HEPATITIS C WITH OR WITHOUT HEPATOCELLULAR CARCINOMA (HCC) IN EGYPTIAN PATIENTS [PDF]

Al-Azhar Journal of Pharmaceutical Sciences, 2015
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is usually asymptomatic in the early stage and does not show elevated alpha-feto protein (AFP). Des-Gamma-CarboxyProthrombin (DCP) and Carbohydrate antigen 19-9 (CA19-9) may increase in sera of HCC patients.

Combining des-gamma-carboxyprothrombin and alpha-fetoprotein for hepatocellular carcinoma diagnosing: an update meta-analysis and validation study. [PDF]

Oncotarget, 2017
Controversies about the combination of des-gamma-carboxyprothrombin (DCP) and alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) for hepatocellular carcinoma diagnosing still exist. Hence, we performed this updated meta-analysis to estimate the diagnostic value of DCP , AFP and DCP + AFP in HCC.
