Summary

Blood fibrinogen (FIB) levels are higher in cancer patients and decrease after treatment. Elevated FIB may indicate recurrence or metastasis, aiding cancer diagnosis and prognosis assessment.

Area of Science:

  • Biochemistry
  • Oncology
  • Hematology

Context:

  • Malignant tumors are associated with altered hemostasis.
  • Blood fibrinogen (FIB) is a key coagulation factor.
  • Monitoring FIB levels may provide insights into cancer progression.

Purpose:

  • To investigate blood fibrinogen (FIB) levels in cancer patients.
  • To assess changes in FIB before and after chemotherapy or radiotherapy.
  • To evaluate FIB as a diagnostic and prognostic marker.

Summary:

  • Blood fibrinogen (FIB) levels were significantly higher in 43 malignant tumor patients compared to benign disease patients.
  • A significant reduction in FIB was observed post-chemotherapy or radiotherapy.
  • FIB levels increased again with cancer recurrence or metastasis.
