CA 15.3 Test - Book at Affordable Cost

What is the CA 15.3 Test? CA15.3 is a cancer marker that is utilized to detect cancer, and its overexpression is most commonly related to breast tumors. A protein generated by normal breast cells is known as estrogen receptor-positive (ER+). In response to breast cancers, there is an increase in CA 15.3, which is a growth factor. When breast cancer has spread to other parts of the body, the levels of these hormones are at their greatest. Therefore, the amount of CA 15.3 present in the blood is determined by this test.

The usual range of CA15.3 concentrations is less than 30 U/mL.

Why CA 15.3 done? 

Because the CA15.3 level does not grow considerably until late in cancer development or treatment, it is preferable to utilize this test to monitor the progress of cancer progression or treatment rather than as a screening test. Aside from breast cancer, it is also used to monitor a variety of other tumors, including those of the lungs, ovaries, prostate, pancreas, and colon, among others.
