A STUDY ON THE SCREENING OF LARGE INTESTINAL CARCINOMA BY T-ANTIGEN MONOCLONAL AN-TIBODY METHOD / 中国癌症杂志

ABSTRACT

PURPOSE To investigate the clinical value of the T-antigen monoclonal antibody method on screening of large intestinal carcinoma. METHODS The T-antigen monoclonal antibody method and the galactose oxidase method were simultaneously used to detect T-antigen in large intestinal mucus of 207 cases. RESULTS There was not obvious difference in screening value between the T-antigen monoclonal antibody method and the galactose oxidase method, for that they had similar sensitivity (69. 2%, 67. 3%) and specificity (64. 2%, 65. 6%) in diagnosis of large intestinal carcinoma. CONCLUSION The T-antigen monoclonal antibody method was convenient, eligible and valuable on screening of large intestinal carcinoma.
