Objective: Finding biomarkers related to non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is helpful for the diagnosis and precise treatment of lung cancer. The relationship between serum tumor M2-pyruvate kinase (TuM2-PK), carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA), and cytokeratin 19 fragment (CYFRA21-1) and NSCLC was analyzed. Methods: The serum levels of TuM2-PK, CEA, and CYFRA21-1 in 184 patients with the NSCLC group, 60 patients with the benign lung disease (BLD) group, and 90 healthy controls (HC) group were detected. The levels of TuM2-PK were measured by using an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. The detection methods of CEA and CYFRA21-1 were electrochemiluminescence. The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was drawn to evaluate the diagnostic value of TuM2-PK, CEA, and CYFRA21-1 on NSCLC. The Kaplan–Meier survival curve was drawn to evaluate the survival status in NSCLC patients with different serum levels of TuM2-PK, CEA, and CYFRA21-1. Results: Serum levels of TuM2-PK, CEA, and CYFRA21-1 in the NSCLC group were significantly higher than those in the BLD group and the HC group (P <.01). Serum levels of TuM2-PK, CEA, and CYFRA21-1 in NSCLC patients were associated with the tumor lymph node metastasis stage (P <.05), lymph node metastasis (P <.05), and distant metastasis (P <.05). The ROC curve showed that the area under the curve of serum levels of TuM2-PK, CEA, and CYFRA21-1 was 0.814, 0.638, and 0.719, respectively, and that the combination of the above 3 was 0.918. The Kaplan–Meier survival curve showed that the 1-, 3- and 5-year survival rate in NSCLC patients with positive TuM2-PK, CEA, and CYFRA21-1 was significantly lower than that in NSCLC patients with negative TuM2-PK, CEA, and CYFRA21-1, respectively (P <.05). Conclusions: Serum TuM2-PK, CEA, and CYFRA21-1 levels have high clinical values in the diagnosis of NSCLC, and can effectively judge the prognosis of patients. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
