TPS | Tumor Polypeptide Specific Antigen

TPS | Cancer Marker | Tumor Polypeptide Specific Antigen - this is a cancer marker that reflects not so much the localization as the growth rate of the tumor. An increase in TPA concentration can be found during various non-malignant pathologies (especially in cases of inflammation in the urogenital system, respiratory organ pathologies). TPA is recommended for use when another cancer marker has already been identified. It can also be used when the diagnosis is clear. TPS is elevated in cases of breast, bronchial, colorectal, bladder, cervical, and ovarian cancer. Bladder cancer most often among all cancers causes an increase in TPS concentration.
