More recently, the same authors described an increased accuracy of 97% for a proteomic panel consisting of MUC-5AC and MUC-2 to discriminate between premalignant/malignant pancreatic cystic lesions and benign disease, and accuracy values of 96% and 95% for the combination of MUC-5AC with prostate stem-cell antigen (PSCA) to identify high-grade dysplasia/cancer and malignant/severely dysplastic lesions, respectively [115], the results for both panels were superior to those obtained with existing diagnostic tools. Here, MUC5AC is linked to cancer.
