  • Dual Biomarker Assay for Pancreatic Cancer to be Studied in CLIA Lab

    Diagnostics World | Two glycans are better than one when it comes to detecting pancreatic cancer that currently lacks a biomarker capable of accurately and reliably spotting the disease. The gold standard biomarker CA19-9, approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for monitoring response to treatment, correctly identifies only 44% of cases but the addition of CA199.STRA ramped that up to 71% while maintaining a low false positive rate in a recent case control study.
