Clinical use of PSA• Sensitive marker for prostate cancer
– Expressed by more than 99% of all prostate cancers
– Serum PSA increased by 1 gram tumor
– Prostate-specific rather than cancer specific
• Used for– Monitoring of response to therapy
– Detection of relapse
– Evaluation of prognosis
– Early diagnosis and screening (case finding)

Are we doing something wrong?• Are we over-diagnosing?• Yes, in 75% of those over 70 years of age• Are we finding the patients that need to be
cured?• Not all, 35% of patients with clinically localized
tumors experience a relapse• We need to improve our diagnostic methods
and procedures– Even earlier diagnosis– More cancer-specific methods– Avoid detection of clinically indolent tumors– Prognostic methods

Characteristics of measurand (PSA)• 30 kDa chymotrypsin-like serine proteinase
• Produced by epithelial cells of the prostate
• Prostate specific, not cancer specific
• Dissolves seminal clot by degrading semenogelin• PSA in plasma is heterogeneous
– Complexes with protease inhibitors– Partially degraded forms and proforms of free
PSA– Crossreacting substances
• hK2

Equimolarity of assays for PSA
• Ability to detect free and complexed PSA equally
• Assays based on polyclonal antibodies tend to overestimate free PSA

Equimolarity of assays for PSA
• Beckman Access uses the same antibodies as Hybritech Tandem E
• What is the difference?
• Assay kinetics– Small molecules react faster

Conclusions from assay comparisons
• Assay manufacturers compete with speed, capacity and price
• Quality suffers• Who is responsible?• Customer?
– Capable of judging quality?• Manufacturer?• Regulatory bodies?

Reference measurement proceduresAre they necessary?
PSA assays from major manufacturers are unusually well standardized
Room for improvement
Quality of assays from minor companies varies

Is it possible?• Identification of reference antibodies
– Known epitope specificity– Generally available
• Definition of assay format– Sandwich assay– Microtitration well format, sample volume 25 ul– Two-step incubation, 1 + 1 h incubation time– Applicable to any detection method
• ELISA, Delfia, IRMA, luminescence
• Reference laboratories• Calibrated samples• Mass spectrometry?

Who is capable?• I know some• Endagered species• Are they willing?• Who will pay for it?
– Not ”sexy science” that you get grants for

Who is responsible?• WHO?• IFCC?• JCTLM?• We are all responsible• We need to justify the expenses• Calculation of additional health care costs
caused by poor assay quality• Poor quality is expensive• Someone has to take the lead
