Carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) levels were determined in 742 postoperative patients with breast cancer. Within this group the percentage of elevated (24.0 ng/ml) assays increased with UICC clinical stage and was 14.8% (12/81), 23.7% (27/114), 73.1% (190/260) and 20.0% (49/245) for stages I, 11, 111,
Serial CEA radioimmunoassays have been performed on patients receiving radiation therapy preoperatively or as treatment of recurrent or metastatic colorectal cancer. Pretreatment circulating CEA titers which were elevated showed a significant decrease with accumulating doses of irradiation, indicati
