A New CA19-9 Cut-Off Value Identifies Lewis Antigen Status and Refines Prognostic Stratification in PDAC

This study investigates the clinical utility of serum CA19-9 levels in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC), with a focus on identifying patients with Lewis antigen–negative status due to germline FUT3 variants. Using data from multicenter prospective cohorts in Taiwan, we analyzed CA19-9 classification, FUT2/FUT3 genotypes, and clinicopathological annotations. The goal of this study is to refine prognostic stratification and reduce false-negative interpretation of CA19-9 in PDAC patients. All participants provided informed consent, and the study was approved by the relevant institutional review boards.
