Know more about this test

Available at an affordable price with Tata 1mg in Kochi, the CA 72.4 test is a blood test that helps measure the level of cancer antigen 72.4 (CA 72.4) in the body. This test is often used as a gastric cancer marker and helps monitor and track treatment of certain cancers, especially gastrointestinal (stomach) cancers. Also, CA 72.4 (or CA 72-4) is a tumor marker used in the evaluation of both colon and ovarian cancer.

The CA 72.4 test is primarily used to support the diagnosis, monitor response to treatment, and detect cancer recurrence in patients with known gastrointestinal malignancies. While the CA 72.4 test is not intended to be used as a standalone diagnostic test for cancer, it is helpful when combined with other blood tests, imaging studies, and clinical investigations.

Doctors may recommend the CA 72.4 test for individuals being assessed for gastric cancer or other cancers, such as colorectal or ovarian cancers. Also, this test can be done when there is a history of gastric cancer or when the symptoms strongly suggest gastric cancer. No special preparation is required for the CA 72.4 test. However, provide the relevant clinical history and the doctor’s prescription at the time of sample collection.

What does CA 72.4 measure?

The CA 72.4 test measures the amount of cancer antigen 72.4 (CA 72.4) in the blood. CA 72.4 (or CA 72-4) is a tumor-associated glycoprotein that may be elevated in various cancers, particularly gastrointestinal cancers.

High levels of CA 72.4 may suggest active cancer or recurrence, while low levels may suggest effective treatment. However, the CA 72.4 is not a cancer-specific test and must be interpreted along with other clinical findings and diagnostic investigations.
