Résumé

The aim of the study was to determine the proportion of gastric cancer patients with decreased levels of pepsinogen and gastrin-17 in plasma, with the goal of providing indirect evidence of the sensitivity of these biomarkers when applied in a cancer screening setting. The levels of pepsinogens I and II, gastrin-17, and Helicobacter pylori immunoglobulin antibodies in plasma samples of gastric cancer patients were evaluated using the GastroPanel test system (Biohit Oyj, Helsinki, Finland). A decreased level of the pepsinogen I/II ratio was defined as less than three, while a decrease in gastrin-17 was defined as less than 1 pmol/L. Univariate analysis using non-parametric tests was used to investigate differences between normal and low concentrations of biomarkers. In total, 481 plasma samples from patients (59.9% male) with a median age of 64 years (ranging from 27 to 88 years) were analyzed. Out of the 400 cases of gastric cancer (83.2% of the total), 182 were categorized as the intestinal type, 141 as the diffuse type, 60 as the mixed type, and 17 as indeterminate according to the Lauren classification system. The H. pylori immunoglobulin test was positive in 74.0% of the patients. Pepsinogen I/II ratio was decreased in 32.4% (36.8% of the intestinal type); gastrin-17 in 12.3% (10.1% of the antral region) of all cases. The majority of gastric cancer patients had normal levels of pepsinogen and gastrin-17, suggesting that these biomarkers have limited application as screening tools in the Caucasian population.
