Рання діагностика дуже важлива для зниження рівня захворюваності і смертності у пацієнтів, інфікованих COVID-19. Метою даного дослідження було виявити пухлинні антигени CEA, CA19.9, CA15.3 та AFP та порівняти рівні цих антигенів у сироватці крові пацієнтів хворих на COVID-19 та здорових людей, які не хворіли на COVID-19. У дослідження було залучено 69 пацієнтів з COVID-19 і 69 здорових людей. Рівень СЕА, СА19.9, СА15.3 та AFP у сироватці крові визначали за допомогою ELISA. Встановлено, що рівень пухлинних біомаркерів у сироватці крові пацієнтів із Covid-19 складав 7,74 ± 4,65 нг/мл для CEA; 29,33 ± 16,35 од/мл для CA19.9; 23,24 ± 13,48 од/мл для CA15,3 та 7,46 ± 5,57 нг/мл для AFP, у той час, як рівень біомаркерів у сироватці крові осіб, які не хворіли на COVID-19 був 9,73 ± 43,58 нг/мл для CEA; 20,66 ± 11,10 од/мл для CA19.9; 19,64 ± 10,99 од/мл для CA15.3 та 3,83 ± 9,20 нг/мл для AFP. Таким чином, показано відсутність відмінностей у рівнях пухлинних біомаркерів двох досліджуваних груп. Зроблено висновок, що пухлинні біомаркери CEA, CA19.9, CA15.3 та AFP не можуть бути використані як ефективні інструменти скринінгу пацієнтів на COVID-19.
