Description

AFP is a tumor marker used for the diagnosis and monitoring of hepatocellular carcinoma, testicular and ovarian germ cell tumors, and liver metastases. It is an important component of a comprehensive tumor panel with CEA, β-hCG, and CA 125.

Alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) is a protein normally produced by fetal tissues, and in adults, its elevated levels are associated with oncological pathology.

The clinical role of AFP in oncology includes:

  • diagnosis of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC);
  • detection of germ cell tumors of the gonads (ovaries, testicles);
  • monitoring of metastatic liver disease;
  • assessment of treatment effectiveness and detection of relapses.

In combination with other tumor markers (CEA, CA 125, β-hCG), it is used for:

  • extended screening of patients at risk of cancer;
  • determining the source of neoplasia in questionable cases;
  • determining indications for surgery or chemotherapy.

When and who needs the test?

  • For patients with liver, testicular, or ovarian tumors.
  • For monitoring patients with cirrhosis and hepatitis B/C.
  • During follow-up after treatment for germ cell tumors or HCC.
  • If liver metastases from other sites are suspected.
  • For maximum information, AFP should be combined with CEA, β-hCG, CA 125, HE4, etc., depending on the clinical need.

Biological material

  • Venous blood
