Q&As (7)
Ask a questionSome benign conditions like pancreatitis, cirrhosis, or inflammatory bowel disease can increase CA242 levels.
CA242 levels are usually measured using immunoassays, such as ELISA, in serum samples.
CA242 levels are often elevated in colorectal cancer, making it a potential diagnostic and prognostic marker.
Apart from colorectal, elevated CA242 can also be seen in pancreatic and stomach cancers.
While CA242 is specific, it is not absolute; hence, it should be used in conjunction with other diagnostic tools and clinical evaluations.
CA242 is used to detect and monitor the progression or recurrence of certain cancers, especially colorectal cancer.
CA242 is more specific for colorectal cancer compared to CA19-9 but might have similar sensitivity.
