Table 4.

Sensitivity, specificity, AUC, and cut-off values for tumor markers as diagnostic indicators.

Factor Sensitivity (%) Specificity (%) AUC Cut-off value P
CYFRA21-1 77.6 87 0.875 7.54 ng/ml <0.001
AFP 98.3 55.3 0.816 0.54 ng/ml <0.001
CA-153 60.3 86.1 0.773 22.33 U/ml <0.001
CEA 56.9 89.3 0.738 33 ng/ml <0.001
CA-199 46.6 87.3 0.661 26 U/ml <0.001

Sensitivity and specificity were obtained at the cut-off value. P < 0.05 was considered statistically significant.

AUC, area under the curve; CYFRA, cytokeratin fraction; AFP, alpha fetoprotein; CA, cancer antigen; CEA, carcinoembryonic antigen.
