    What is CA 72.4, Gastric Cancer Marker Test?

    The CA 72.4 Gastric Marker test is a blood test used to detect levels of Cancer Antigen 72.4 (CA 72,4); an antigen primarily linked to gastric cancer (GC). Gastric cancer is one of the most aggressive and fatal cancers worldwide, often diagnosed at an advanced stage due to the absence of early symptoms and effective screening methods.

    While upper gastrointestinal endoscopy with biopsy remains the gold standard for diagnosing gastric cancer, it is an invasive and costly procedure that may not be feasible for regular monitoring. As a result, non-invasive tumour markers like CA 72.4 are used to detect and monitor the progression of gastric cancer. Moreover, studies have shown that CA 72.4 has a higher diagnostic accuracy than other commonly used tumour markers such as CEA (carcinoembryonic antigen) and CA 19-9 in gastric cancer detection. The test also holds significance in determining the suitability of patients for tumour resection surgery.

    For individuals residing in Bangalore, scheduling a CA 72.4 test at home can be hassle-free and convenient for the timely diagnosis and monitoring of gastric cancer.

    CA 72.4, Gastric Cancer Marker Test Parameters

    The CA 72.4 test measures the levels of the gastric cancer marker CA 72.4 in the bloodstream.

    CA 72.4, also known as Tumour-Associated Antigen 72 (TAG-72), is a glycoprotein found in high concentrations on the surface of various adenocarcinomas, particularly gastric, colorectal, ovarian, and breast cancers. Its levels are usually low in healthy individuals but tend to rise significantly in patients with malignant tumours. Elevated CA 72.4 levels are commonly associated with gastric cancer, particularly in advanced stages.

    CA 72.4, Gastric Cancer Marker Test Preparation

    To prepare for the CA 72.4 test at home, check these testing pre-requisites:

    • Prerequisites

    Fasting is not required before the CA 72.4 gastric cancer marker test.

    • Best Time to Get Tested

    The CA 72.4 test can be scheduled at any time during the day for those seeking diagnosis and monitoring of gastric cancer.

    • Who Should Get a CA 72.4 Test?

    The CA 72.4 test is recommended for individuals being evaluated for gastric cancer or other adenocarcinomas, those requiring postoperative monitoring, and patients undergoing chemotherapy to assess treatment response. It may also be advised for individuals at high risk of gastric cancer due to family history, poor eating habits, or Helicobacter pylori infection.

    • Cautions Before Taking a CA 72.4 Test

    The test does not require any specific precautions.

    Why Take the CA 72.4, Gastric Cancer Marker Test?

    The CA 72.4 test is important for individuals at risk of or diagnosed with gastric cancer. Testing is essential for the following reasons:

    • Early Detection of Gastric Cancer : While not a standalone screening tool, CA 72.4 can aid in detecting gastric cancer, especially in high-risk individuals.

    • Assessing Disease Progression : Helps determine tumour burden and predict metastasis (spread of cancer to other body parts) before surgery.

    • Postoperative Monitoring : The test helps track tumour recurrence following surgery.

    • Evaluating Treatment Response : The test is also conducted to monitor the response to chemotherapy and helps guide therapeutic decisions.

    Regular monitoring of CA 72.4 levels, along with imaging, and clinical evaluation helps monitor the progression of disease, treatment response, and potential recurrence of gastric cancer and other adenocarcinomas.

    • Good experience everytime except one where phlebotomist didn't prick correctly. My wife had much pain even after few days and it looked like some clot had happened. But it was one in almost 20 visits. I would still recommend. One suggestion to Orange would be to keep Lithium tests within a day so we could get test results faster
      5.0
    • My experience with Orange labs have been excellent so far. Have relied on their home visit for regular blood tests given that it is a case of dengue, and close monitoring of the blood count is essential. They are prompt as promised and the results too are available within committed time lines. As to accuracy of results, I rely on the lab certifications to give me confidence. Would have wanted a voice interface ( a number to call ) for a first time experience, and an ability to order for quicker reports (2 hours) for a differential charge. For the service delivered as published, it is a 5-star
