Research output: Contribution to journalArticlepeer-review

Abstract

A handful of cancer biomarkers are used widely in clinical practice, mainly for aiding in diagnosis and for monitoring therapy. These biomarkers include α-fetoprotein (AFP),4 carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA), prostate-specific antigen, and the carbohydrate antigens CA125, CA19.9, and CA15.3. Other, more specialized cancer biomarkers are used less frequently. Molecular/genomic markers will not be discussed here.
