Article Synopsis
- The study investigated the effectiveness of Human epididymal protein 4 (HE4) as a diagnostic marker for breast cancer, comparing it to existing markers CA15-3 and CEA in distinguishing between benign and malignant cases.
- A total of 90 female subjects were analyzed, including 30 with malignant breast cancer, 30 with benign lumps, and 30 healthy controls, using serum samples tested through a specific immunoassay method.
- Results showed that HE4 levels were significantly higher in malignant cases compared to benign and control groups, suggesting HE4 could serve as a valuable biomarker with decent sensitivity and specificity for breast cancer diagnosis.
