CA 72.4 (GASTRIC CANCER) – CANCER MARKERS

CA 72.4 is a protein (a mucin-like glycoprotein) that is often found in high concentrations on the surface of certain cancer cells.

  • Specificity: It is considered one of the most specific markers for gastric cancer, meaning it is less likely than other markers to be elevated by non-cancerous conditions.
  • The “Combo” Marker: Doctors rarely look at CA 72.4 alone. It is frequently paired with CEA (Carcinoembryonic Antigen) and CA 19-9 to provide a more complete picture of what is happening in the digestive tract.
