Biochemical markers in prostatic cancer
Abstract
The status of the biochemical markers explored for use in patients with carcinoma of the prostate is reviewed. No unique marker has been identified. However, a variety of substances, primarily enzymes and specific proteins, found in the serum, urine, and prostatic fluid, have been evaluated. Their main value remains in the staging of disease and the monitoring of response to therapy.
