ABSTRACT
Objective To explore the change and clinical significance of the serum carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA)and carbohydrate antigen 724(CA724)in patients with rectal cancer before and after neoadjuvant ra-diotherapy and chemotherapy.Methods The serum levels of CEA and CA724 of 30 patients with rectal carci-noma were detected by electrochemiluminescence method and were compared with those in 30 healthy people. Results The serum levels of CEA and CA724 in rectal carcinoma patients before neoadjuvant radiotherapy and chemotherapy were significantly higher than those in the healthy people,the difference was statistically significant(P<0.05).The serum levels in complete remission and partial remission patients after eight-week neoadjuvant radiotherapy and chemotherapy were significantly lower than those before treatment,the differ-ence was statistically significant(P<0.05),and the reduction levels were obviously higher than those in the stable group,the difference was statistically significant(P< 0.05).The CEA and CA724 levels in the stable treatment patients were also lower than those of before neoadjuvant radiotherapy and chemotherapy,the difference was statistically significant(P<0.05).The serum levels in the progression group were higher than those of before treatment(P<0.05).The serum levels of CEA and CA724 before neoadjuvant radiotherapy and chemotherapy existed a positive correlation(r=0.862,P=0.000).Conclusion The serum levels of CEA and CA724 in rectal cancer are highly expressed,suggesting that both of them are closely related to the occur-rence and development of rectal carcinoma,the measurement of the serum level changes of CEA and CA724 in patients with rectal cancer before and after treatment contributes to estimate the efficacy of neoadjuvant radio-therapy and chemotherapy and tumor progression.
