Circulating carbohydrate antigen 19-9 (CA19-9) levels reflect FUT3 and FUT2 fucosyltransferase activity. Measuring the related glycan, DUPAN-2, can be useful in individuals unable to synthesize CA19-9. We hypothesized that similar CA19-9, FUT functional groups determined by variants
Abstract Purpose: CA19–9 synthesis is influenced by common variants in the fucosyltransferase (FUT) enzymes FUT3 and FUT2. We developed a clinical test to detect FUT variants, evaluated its diagnostic performance for pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC). Experimental Design: A representative set of controls from Cancer Pancreas Screening study was identified each functional group. Diagnostic sensitivity determined first testing 234 PDAC cases, followed 134-case validation set, all whom...
PURPOSE Inherited cancer susceptibility is often not suspected in the absence of a significant family history. Pathogenic germline variants pancreatic are well-studied, and routine genetic testing recommended guidelines. However, data on rare periampullary cancers other than insufficient. We compared prevalence patients with nonpancreatic cancers. MATERIALS AND METHODS Six hundred eight who had undergone pancreaticoduodenal resection at tertiary referral hospital were studied, including 213...
