Abstract

Objective To investigate the clinical value of serum Haptoglobin (Hp)levels in cervical cancer patients.Methods Serum Hp (with immunoturbidimetry method),SCC,CA125 (with electrochemiluminescence immunoassay method)level were detected in 45 patients with cervical cancer,37patients with cervical benign disease and 41 female healthy controls.Re-sults Serum Hp level of cervical cancer patients (mean:1.69 g/L)was strongly higher than the level of cervical benign dis-ease patients (mean:0.90g/L)and healthy subjects (mean:0.69 g/L)(t=3.26,4.42,P=0.001,0.000,respectively).Hp level rises highly in the early stage of cervical cancer.The area under receiver operating characteristic curve (AUCROC)of Hp was 0.853 which was higher than SCC (AUC=0.751)and CA125 (AUC=0.494).The sensitivity of Hp,SCC,and CA125 were 87%,49% and 29% respectively.The specificity of Hp,SCC and CA125 were 68%,88% and 83% respective-ly.Three tumor markers combined together could produce a positive detection rate of 93%.Conclusion The detection of Hp has clinic significance on diagnosis of cervical cancer,and it’s possible to become a serum tumor marker.
