Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the sixth most common cancer worldwide and the third leading cause of cancer-related deaths. Early detection is critical for improving survival; however, conventional diagnostic assays for biomarkers such as alpha-fetoprotein (AFP), AFP-L3, and PIVKA-II have limited sensitivity and specificity, hindering effective early diagnosis. To overcome these limitations, we developed a clinically applicable, high-accuracy diagnostic assay using immunoprecipitation combined with multiple reaction monitoring (IP-MRM). The assay quantifies serum AFP level and fucosylated AFP portion, after enriching via the KingFisher™ automated system. This assay was developed and validated according to Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute (CLSI) guidelines to ensure real-world applicability. Analytical evaluation showed excellent linearity (R² ≥ 0.99), imprecision within ±15%, and accuracy within ±20%. Clinical assessment demonstrated improved sensitivity and diagnostic accuracy compared to conventional AFP-L3%. Our IP-MRM assay meets CLSI standards and offers clear clinical advantages, supporting its potential as a robust tool for early HCC detection in clinical settings. By addressing existing assay limitations, this platform may enhance early diagnosis and improve patient outcomes in hepatocellular carcinoma. |
