Parathyroid hormone related peptide (PTHrP) measurements are helpful in the evaluation and management of individuals suspected of humoral hypercalcemia of malignancy (HHM).
To develop a chemiluminescent assay for PTHrP quantitation, establish reference intervals, and evaluate its clinical performance.
PTHrP 1-86 was measured using a polyclonal rabbit antibody (capture) and an acridinium ester labeled goat polyclonal antibody for chemiluminescent detection.
Assay imprecision was < 9% (intra-assay) and < 15% (inter-assay). The analytical measuring range was 0.16-50.5 pmol/L. No significant cross-reactivity was observed for PTH (1-84), PTHrP (107-139), and PTHrP (1-36); whereas PTHrP (38-94) showed 8.3% cross-reactivity. Comparison with the pre-existing Mayo assay showed a positive bias: new assay = 2.24 (pre-existing assay)-0.30 and r = 0.96. The reference interval was ≤ 0.7 pmol/L, however, a cut-off of ≤ 4.2 pmol/L yielded increased specificity (98%). Comparison of patients with HHM versus those without HHM resulted in an area under the ROC curve of 0.99. A significant inverse relationship between eGFR and PTHrP was observed (r = 0.738). PTHrP concentrations in patients with Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) were ≤ 4.2 pmol/L.
This assay is specific for PTHrP 1-86. A clinical decision limit of 4.2 pmol/L was sensitive and specific for patients with HHM.
甲状旁腺激素相关肽(PTHrP)的测量有助于评估和管理疑似恶性肿瘤体液性高钙血症(HHM)的个体。
开发一种用于 PTHrP 定量的化学发光测定法,建立参考区间,并评估其临床性能。
使用多克隆兔抗体(捕获)和吖啶酯标记的山羊多克隆抗体进行 PTHrP 1-86 的化学发光检测。
测定的不精密度<9%(批内)和<15%(批间)。分析测量范围为 0.16-50.5 pmol/L。PTH(1-84)、PTHrP(107-139)和 PTHrP(1-36)无明显交叉反应;而 PTHrP(38-94)表现出 8.3%的交叉反应性。与现有的 Mayo 测定法比较显示出正偏倚:新测定法=2.24(现有的测定法)-0.30,r=0.96。参考区间为≤0.7 pmol/L,但截值为≤4.2 pmol/L 可提高特异性(98%)。将 HHM 患者与无 HHM 患者进行比较,ROC 曲线下面积为 0.99。观察到 eGFR 与 PTHrP 呈显著负相关(r=0.738)。慢性肾脏病(CKD)患者的 PTHrP 浓度≤4.2 pmol/L。
该测定法特异性针对 PTHrP 1-86。4.2 pmol/L 的临床决策限值对 HHM 患者具有敏感性和特异性。
