Abstract:

Objective

To evaluate the combined diagnostic value of Chemokine ligand 16 (CXCL16) , serum PSA, fPSA% and PSAD in patients with prostate cancer in the gray area of PSA.

Method

A retrospective analysis was perfomed with 81 cases of patients who were treated from January 2017 to January 2018 in Guangdong Provincial People's Hospital, and their PSA were between 4-10 μg/L (diagnostic gray zone). Among these patients, 24 patients with prostate cancer (Tumor group) and 57 patients with benign prostatic lesions (Benign group) were enrolled. Urine specimens were deposited in all patients prior to surgery. The levels of CXCL16 in the urine samples of each group were determined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Meanwhile, serum PSA levels in each group were determined by chemiluminescence method and analyzed statistically. The diagnostic efficacies of CXCL16 in urine samples were evaluated by the ROC curve and the area under the cure (AUC).

Results

The non-parametric rank sum test of PSA, fPSA%, PSAD and CXCL16 in the Tumor group and the Benign group showed that there were statistically significant differences in fPSA%, PSAD and CXCL16 (P<0.01), while there was no statistically significant difference in PSA level between two groups (P=0.709).The area under curve (AUC) of PSAD, fPSA%, CXCL16 and the combined test for the diagnosis of prostate cancer, which was 0.684, 0.6447, 0.7105 and 0.8157, respectively. The diagnostic sensitivity and specificity of CXCL16 were 62.5% and 78.9% respectively at a cutoff of 2.4 ng/L.

Conclusion

As a novel tumor biomarker, quantitative detection of CXCL16 in urine can be used in the screening and diagnosis of prostate cancer. The combination of PSAD, fPSA% and CXCL16 is beneficial for the early diagnosis of prostate cancer in patients whose PSA in diagnostic gray zone.

Key words: Prostate cancer, PSA gray zone, CXCL16, Tumor biomarker
