I've read a couple of articles describing how the CEA protein can protect cancer cells from being killed. My husband's cancer releases a LOT of CEA-- his CEA has never been in the single digits, and it's usually in the triple digits. His oncologist says his CEA numbers are about 3 times what he would expect for the amount of cancer he has in his body. I know that a few other people on here have had abnormally high CEAs as well.
I'm wondering whether anyone know about any treatments or other ways to target CEA? From my own googling, it looks like there are a few trials in China using T-cell therapy to target CEA, but I didn't find much besides that.
