Performance evaluation of serum PIVKA-II measurement using HISCL-5000 and a method comparison of HISCL-5000, LUMIPULSE G1200, and ARCHITECT i2000.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Protein induced by vitamin K antagonist-II (PIVKA-II), in addition to alpha-fetoprotein, is a useful tumor marker for diagnosis of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). We evaluated the analytical performance of the HISCL-5000 analyzer (Sysmex Corporation) in the measurement of serum PIVKA-II.

Methods

We evaluated the precision and linearity of PIVKA-II assays using the HISCL-5000 analyzer. Methods using HISCL-5000, LUMIPULSE G1200 (Fujirebio Diagnostics), and ARCHITECT i2000 (Abbott Diagnostics) were compared according to the guidelines of the Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute. A total of 501 subjects (median age 59 years, age range 24-90 years) were enrolled. Among them, 335 were HCC patients, 46 were patients with non-HCC liver disease, and 120 were healthy
