FAQ
Who is at risk of getting breast cancer?
As women age, the likelihood of ovarian cancer increases; but rarely seen in those under 40. Other factors are obesity, pregnancy at an older age (over 35) and familial history of cancer.
What other tests are done to confirm breast cancer?
Once the CA 15-3 test shows a higher than normal value and your doctor suspects the presence of breast cancer, they would recommend you to go for breast ultrasound, MRI, mammogram or biopsy.

Sterling Accuris Diagnostics offers the CA 15-3 Test in Kadi to monitor treatment response and disease recurrence in patients with breast cancer.
Overview of CA 15-3 Test (Cancer Antigen 15-3)
The CA 15-3 test is performed periodically to monitor a patient's response to breast cancer treatment. Cancer antigen 15-3 is a glycoprotein formed by breast tissues, normally secreted in low amounts in breast milk. This antigen acts as a tumour marker as its level is elevated in breast cancer patients, helping doctors to assess the stage of breast cancer and to monitor treatment response.
Book a CA 15-3 test near you to determine the prognosis of breast cancer. Sterling Accuris Diagnostics offers a precise and cost-effective CA 15-3 Test in Kadi.
Why And When is CA 15-3 Test Done?
Breast cancer is one of the most common malignancies of women worldwide and in India. The response to breast cancer treatment is first assessed by checking levels of tumour marker CA 15-3. A decrease in CA 15-3 marker level indicates a positive treatment response. A higher level of CA 15-3 is associated with metastatic breast cancer, helping to predict the stage of breast cancer.
A doctor may recommend CA 15-3 test if a woman exhibits symptoms like:
- Breast swelling/thickening
- Formation of lumps in the breast
- Red and sore nipple area
- Bloody//Lumps in the armpit/watery discharge from the nipple
- Change in shape and size of the breast
- Breast pain
The CA 15-3 test is also recommended for women with:
- Breast cancer
- Some other benign or malignant cancer
- To check metastatic breast cancer
- As a part of breast cancer therapy
- Breast cancer recurrence after successful treatment

Understanding How To Interpret The CA 15-3 Test Report
