What is a CYFRA 21 (Lung Cancer Marker) Test in Bangalore ?

The CYFRA 21 test measures CYFRA 21-1, a fragment of cytokeratin 19 released into the blood when certain cells break down. Cytokeratins are structural proteins found in epithelial cells, including those lining the lungs. Elevated levels can indicate damage from cancer or other lung diseases. The test is most useful in lung cancers, especially non-small cell and squamous cell types. Doctors use it to help diagnose suspected cancer, establish a baseline before treatment, monitor how well therapy is working, and check for recurrence. Results are interpreted with imaging, symptoms, and other tests because some non-cancer conditions can also raise levels.

Why Take a CYFRA 21 (Lung Cancer Marker) Test in Bangalore ?

CYFRA 21 (Lung Cancer Marker) is included in lung tumor marker panels alongside CEA and SCC antigen. Doctors may order it for persistent cough, breathlessness, coughing blood, or unexplained weight loss. It aids diagnosis and monitoring of non-small cell lung cancer, especially squamous type, and checks treatment response or recurrence. Elevated levels can result from cancer, smoking, inflammation, or organ dysfunction, and family history may prompt testing.

Is CYFRA 21-1 a cancer marker in Bangalore?plus

CYFRA 21-1 is a tumor marker — a fragment of cytokeratin 19 — often elevated in non–small cell lung cancer, particularly squamous cell carcinoma. It helps assess prognosis and monitor treatment response but is not definitive for diagnosis or screening. Levels can also rise with benign lung diseases, liver or kidney dysfunction, and other cancers, so results require clinical and imaging correlation.

What is the marker CA125 for lung cancer in Bangalore?plus

CA125 (cancer antigen 125) is a blood tumor marker primarily associated with ovarian cancer but can be elevated in some lung cancers, especially adenocarcinomas and those with pleural involvement. It is non‑specific—levels can rise in benign conditions—and is not used for screening or definitive diagnosis. In lung cancer, CA125 may reflect advanced disease or pleural spread and can help monitor treatment response.

How accurate is CYFRA 21-1 in Bangalore?plus

CYFRA 21-1 has moderate diagnostic accuracy: sensitivity roughly 40–70% (higher in squamous‑cell lung cancer) and specificity often 80–90%. It’s more useful for prognosis and monitoring treatment or recurrence than as a screening or standalone diagnostic test. Levels can also rise in benign lung disease and smokers, so results require correlation with clinical assessment and imaging.

What is the marker for lung cancer in Bangalore?plus

There is no single definitive marker for lung cancer. Blood tumor markers commonly used are CEA, CYFRA 21‑1, NSE and SCC antigen for detection and monitoring. Molecular markers (EGFR mutations, ALK/ROS1 rearrangements and PD‑L1 expression) guide prognosis and targeted therapy. Imaging and tissue biopsy remain necessary for diagnosis and confirmation.

What is a normal range for CYFRA 21-1 in Bangalore?plus

A commonly used normal range for CYFRA 21-1 is up to about 3.3 ng/mL, though some laboratories use lower cutoffs (around 1.8–3.3 ng/mL). Values above the lab-specific reference may suggest epithelial malignancy—particularly non‑small cell lung cancer—but results must be interpreted alongside clinical findings and other investigations. Always use the reference range printed on your test report.

What is the best marker for lung cancer in Bangalore?plus

There's no single best blood marker for lung cancer. Diagnosis relies on imaging and tissue biopsy with histology. Serum markers like CYFRA 21‑1, CEA (non‑small cell) and NSE or ProGRP (small‑cell) can aid monitoring but lack diagnostic accuracy alone. Molecular markers (EGFR, ALK, ROS1, PD‑L1) from tumor tissue are crucial for targeted therapy selection and prognosis.
