Multi-Biomarkers Panel in Identifying Benign and Malignant Lung Diseases and Pathological Types of Lung Cancer.

ABSTRACT: With the discovery of many tumor markers, there are new strategies for the early diagnosis and treatment of lung cancer and the prediction of prognosis. We examined the multi-protein markers panel (4MP, consisting of Pro-SFTPB, CA125, Cyfra21-1, and CEA) diagnosis performance in differentiating benign and malignant lung diseases and identifying pathological types of lung cancer. Meantime, the complementary performance of three conventional tumor markers (NSE, SCC, and Pro-GRP) for 4MP was assessed. A total of 294 patients with lung cancer or benign lung disease are contained in this study. The AUCs of 4MP and 7MP (NSE, SCC, Pro-GRP, and 4MP) in distinguishing benign lung disease and lung cancer were 0.808 and 0.832, respectively. In distinguishing SQCLC and SCLC, the AUCs were 0.716 and 0.
