    What Is a CA 72.4, Gastric Cancer Marker Test?

    The CA 72.4 Gastric Marker test is a blood test used to measure levels of Cancer Antigen 72.4 (CA 72.4) an antigen primarily associated with gastric cancer (GC). Gastric cancer is one of the most aggressive and deadly cancers worldwide, often diagnosed at an advanced stage due to the lack of early symptoms and effective screening methods.

    Although upper gastrointestinal endoscopy with biopsy is considered the gold standard for diagnosing gastric cancer, it is an invasive and expensive procedure that may not be practical for regular monitoring. As a result, non-invasive tumour markers like CA 72.4 are employed to detect and track the progression of gastric cancer. Studies have also shown that CA 72.4 offers higher diagnostic accuracy than other common tumour markers, such as CEA (carcinoembryonic antigen) and CA 19-9, in detecting gastric cancer. The test is also crucial in determining whether a patient is suitable for tumour resection surgery.

    For those in Gurgaon, scheduling a CA 72.4 test at home is a convenient and hassle-free option for the early 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 blood.

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

    CA 72.4, Gastric Cancer Marker Test Preparation

    To prepare for the CA 72.4 test at home, please follow these testing guidelines:

    • 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 undergoing evaluation for gastric cancer or other adenocarcinomas, those requiring postoperative monitoring, and patients receiving chemotherapy to assess treatment response. It may also be advised for individuals at high risk of gastric cancer due to family history, unhealthy eating habits, or Helicobacter pylori infection.

    • Cautions Before Taking a CA 72.4 Test No specific precautions are required before taking the test.

    Why Take the CA 72.4, Gastric Cancer Marker Test?

    The CA 72.4 test is vital for individuals at risk of or diagnosed with gastric cancer. It plays an important role for the following reasons:

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

    • Assessing Disease Progression : The test helps determine tumour burden and can predict metastasis (spread of cancer to other parts of the body) before surgery.

    • Postoperative Monitoring : It aids in tracking tumour recurrence after surgery.

    • Evaluating Treatment Response : The test is also used to monitor the effectiveness of chemotherapy, guiding therapeutic decisions.

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