The Centocor CA 15-3 RIA is an in vitro test for the quantitative determination of DF3 antibody-defined antigen, encoded by the MUC 1 gene, in serum and plasma.

Serial test results obtained with the Centocor CA 15-3 RIA, are useful in the early detection of recurrence in patients previously treated for stage II or stage ITI breast cancer, who are clinically free of discase. Early detection of recurrence cannot be readily accomplished by routine clinical or diagnostic studies alone. The use of a circulating serum tumor marker assay, such as Centocor CA 15-3 RIA, can be useful in the identification of these patients. The Centocor CA 15-3 RIA should be used in conjunction with all relevant information derived from diagnostic tests, physical examination and full medical history, in accordance with appropriate patient management procedures
