Journal Article

A complex between prostate-specific antigen and alpha 1-antichymotrypsin is the major form of prostate-specific antigen in serum of patients with prostatic cancer: assay of the complex improves clinical sensitivity for cancer.

TL;DR: The proportion of the PSA-alpha 1-antichymotrypsin complex was higher in patients with prostatic cancer than in those with benign hyperplasia, and assay of the complex had a higher sensitivity for cancer than assay of total PSA immunoreactivity.

National Academy of Clinical Biochemistry Laboratory Medicine Practice Guidelines for Use of Tumor Markers in Testicular, Prostate, Colorectal, Breast, and Ovarian Cancers

TL;DR: Recommendations to encourage optimal use of tumor markers for 5 cancer sites were critically reviewed and alpha-fetoprotein, human chorionic gonadotropin, and lactate dehydrogenase are recommended for diagnosis/case finding, staging, prognosis determination, recurrence detection, and therapy monitoring.

Plasma Insulin-Like Growth Factor-I, Insulin-Like Growth Factor-Binding Proteins, and Prostate Cancer Risk: a Prospective Study

TL;DR: Prostate cancer risk is increased in men with elevated plasma IGF-I, and this association was particularly strong in younger men in this study, suggesting that circulating IGF-i may be specifically involved in the early pathogenesis of prostate cancer.
