    Neoplastic diseases, including lung cancer, show elevated serum complement components and immune complexes, correlating with advanced disease stages. These immune markers may indicate disease progression in cancer patients.

    Area of Science:

    • Immunology
    • Oncology

    Context:

    • Investigating immune system alterations in patients with neoplastic diseases.
    • Understanding the role of complement system and immune complexes in cancer pathology.

    Purpose:

    • To measure serum levels of complement components (cc), whole complement activity (CH 50), and circulating immune complexes (IC) in patients with neoplastic diseases.
    • To explore correlations between these immune markers and clinical parameters, specifically in lung cancer patients.

    Summary:

    • Patients with neoplastic diseases exhibited higher serum levels of complement components (cc) compared to healthy controls, with specific elevations in C1q, C1INA, C4, C3c, C3ACT, C5, and C9.
    • In lung cancer patients, elevated cc levels correlated with clinical stage and performance status. Higher immune complex (IC) serum levels and incidence were observed in Stages III and IV compared to Stages I and II.

  • Serum CH 50 levels were higher in patients than controls but did not correlate with clinical stage.

    • Impact:

    • Provides insights into immune dysregulation in neoplastic diseases.
    • Suggests potential utility of complement components and immune complexes as biomarkers for cancer progression and staging, particularly in lung cancer.
    • Highlights differences in immune complex profiles based on cancer stage.
