Abstract

Mucinous cystic neoplasms (MCNs) of the pancreas have malignant potential. Carbohydrate antigen 125 (CA125) is a common widely used biomarker for cancers. However, the role of CA125 in predicting the malignant change of MCNs is currently unidentified. Patients with resected and pathologically confirmed MCN were identified from a prospectively maintained database. The predictive role of serum CA125 in assessing malignant change of MCNs was analyzed and compared with serum carbohydrate antigen 19‑9 (CA19‑9) and carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA). This study included 164 patients with MCN (low/moderate grade, 153 cases; high grade and invasive, 11 cases). The serum levels of CA125 in the high grade and invasive group (45.1±42.1 U/ml) was significantly higher than those in the low/moderate grade group (21.0±46.2 U/ml, P=0.006). The area under the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve of CA125 (0.75) for predicting malignancy of MCNs was higher than that of CA19‑9 (0.68) or CEA (0.72). The prediction value of CA125 was improved when combined with CEA (CA125 alone, sensitivity 36.4%, specificity 90.6%, accuracy 86.6%; combined with CEA, sensitivity 45.5%, specificity 88.2%, accuracy 85.0%). It was concluded that serum CA125 shows value in predicting the malignant change of MCNs, especially when combined with serum CEA.
