Introduction CA 19-9 Test Kit

The CA 19-9 Test Kit is designed for the quantitative measurement of cancer antigen 19-9 in human serum or plasma. Supplied in a 100-test format, the kit is specified as compatible with the CLIA PV 1800 analyzer.

The CA 19-9 Test Kit is designed for the quantitative measurement of cancer antigen 19-9 in human serum or plasma. Supplied in a 100-test format, the kit is specified as compatible with the CLIA PV 1800 analyzer. CA 19-9 measurement may support the assessment and monitoring of selected malignancies, particularly pancreatic cancer, when interpreted alongside other clinical and laboratory findings.

Clinical Applications of the CA 19-9 Test Kit

CA 19-9 is a tumor marker used in the assessment and monitoring of certain gastrointestinal and biliary tract malignancies. Results should be interpreted in the context of the patient's medical history, clinical presentation, and other diagnostic findings.

• Pancreatic cancer monitoring: Supports follow-up and treatment-response assessment in selected patients.

• Assessment of certain gastrointestinal and biliary cancers: CA 19-9 measurement may contribute to the clinical management of selected patients with related malignancies.

• Monitoring marker levels over time: Provides quantitative results that can be compared during follow-up assessments.

• Clinical laboratory testing: Intended for laboratories requiring quantitative CA 19-9 measurement in human samples.

Clinical note: An elevated CA 19-9 result does not, by itself, establish a cancer diagnosis. Levels may also increase in non-malignant conditions such as pancreatitis and biliary obstruction. CA 19-9 testing alone is not suitable for general population screening or definitive cancer diagnosis and should be interpreted alongside other clinical information.
