Prevalence of elevated serum CA 15-3 at time of metastatic relapse of breast cancer and correlation with hormone receptor status
Bulletin du Cancer, 10/19/09
Bensouda Y et al. – CA15–3, a peptide derived from MUC–1, an hormonally–regulated protein, is the most widely used serum marker of breast cancer. CA15–3 level increases at the metastatic phase in 50–80% breast cancer patients. The data confirm that CA 15–3 is very variably elevated at time of metastatic relapse of breast cancer, and this is dependant on HR status.
