What is it indicated for?

The Bayer Immuno 1™ CA 15-3™ Assay is an in vitro, diagnostic, solid phase immunoassay intended to quantitatively measure CA 15-3 Assay values in human serum on the Bayer Immuno 1 system. When used in conjunction with other clinical and diagnostic procedures, serial testing with the CA 15-3 Assay is useful for monitoring the course of disease and therapy in metastatic breast cancer patients, and for detection of recurrence in previously treated Stage II, with greater than 2 positive lymph nodes, or Stage III breast cancer patients.

Indications for use read by OCR from a scanned FDA summary, so letters may be misread. Check the PDF before quoting it.
