    What Is a 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 strongly linked to gastric cancer (GC). Gastric cancer is one of the deadliest and most aggressive cancers worldwide, often diagnosed at a late stage due to the lack of early symptoms and effective screening.

    Although upper gastrointestinal endoscopy with biopsy remains the gold standard for diagnosing gastric cancer, it is an invasive and costly procedure, making it impractical for frequent monitoring. Consequently, non-invasive tumour markers like CA 72.4 are utilised to detect and monitor the progression of gastric cancer. Furthermore, studies indicate that CA 72.4 provides superior diagnostic accuracy compared to other commonly used tumour markers such as CEA (carcinoembryonic antigen) and CA 19-9. The test also plays an important role in evaluating the suitability of patients for tumour resection surgery.

    For individuals in Hyderabad, booking a CA 72.4 test at home offers a convenient, hassle-free way to ensure timely diagnosis and monitoring of gastric cancer.

    CA 72.4, Gastric Cancer Marker Test Parameters

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

    CA 72.4, or Tumour-Associated Antigen 72 (TAG-72), is a glycoprotein that appears in high amounts on the surface of various adenocarcinomas, including those of the gastric, colorectal, ovarian, and breast cancers. In healthy individuals, its levels are typically low, but they increase substantially in the presence of malignant tumours. Elevated CA 72.4 levels are commonly linked with gastric cancer, particularly during its later stages.

    CA 72.4, Gastric Cancer Marker Test Preparation

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

    • Prerequisites No fasting is required before taking the CA 72.4 gastric cancer marker test.

    • Best Time to Get Tested The CA 72.4 test can be arranged at any time of day for those looking to diagnose or monitor gastric cancer.

    • Who Should Get a CA 72.4 Test? The CA 72.4 test is recommended for individuals being assessed for gastric cancer or other adenocarcinomas, those needing postoperative monitoring, and patients receiving chemotherapy to evaluate the effectiveness of treatment. It may also be recommended for individuals at increased risk of gastric cancer due to family history, poor diet, or Helicobacter pylori infection.

    • Cautions Before Taking a CA 72.4 Test There are no special precautions to take before the test.

    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 : Although it is not a standalone screening tool, CA 72.4 can help detect gastric cancer, especially in individuals at high risk.

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

    • Postoperative Monitoring : It is useful for monitoring tumour recurrence following surgery.

    • Evaluating Treatment Response : The test is also used to assess how well chemotherapy is working and helps inform treatment decisions.

    Regular CA 72.4 monitoring, combined with imaging and clinical assessments, helps track disease progression, treatment response, and potential recurrence of gastric cancer and other adenocarcinomas
