The serum level of carcinoembryonic antigen in drainage venous blood is not a sensitive predictor of metachronous hepatic metastasis for patients with colorectal cancer

Abstract: There was virtually no change between preoperative p-CEA and d-CEA levels. These findings suggest that the d-CEA level is not a predictor for metachronous hepatic metastasis and that measuring p-CEA levels is sufficient in the surveillance of colorectal cancer.

“…According to the results of this study, which developed a machine learning-based prognosis prediction model for breast cancer patients, the sensitivity of tumor markers was higher than that of previous studies using tumor marker information collected during follow-up period before breast cancer surgery, and the specificity was slightly lower [37]. In addition, the AUC values in our study were higher than in previous studies that analyzed the correlation between tumor markers and prognostic factors in colorectal cancer patients [43].…”

“…According to the results of previous studies using student t-test and Kruskal-Wallis test to confirm the correlation between CEA and CA15-3, TPA tumor markers and prognostic factors and metastasis, the serum levels of CA15-3 and TPA appears to have a significant relation to the distant metastasis in breast cancer patients [37]. In addition, there was a statistically significant difference between the positive number of lymph node metastasis and tumor markers such as CEA and CA15-3 [38] The sensitivity and specificity of CEA were higher than those in the study of metastasis prediction in liver patients (73.4% and 30%, respectively) [43]. However, the specificity of CEA was only 40% in the prediction of metastasis or local recurrence, and thus its clinical application is limited [10].…”

“…Usually, increased CEA levels could be used for individual risk assessments and predicting metachronous metastases or poor overall survival. 24 – 26 We found that patients with high preoperative CEA levels were more likely to develop MAN (OR, 2.58). These findings suggest that high blood CEA levels may be a useful indicator of MAN.…”
