Core Tip Early detection of gastric cancer (GC) is most important issue. Although endoscopic examination is an ideal, highly reliable technique for early detection of GC, it has limitation because of its high cost and invasiveness. Therefore, inexpensive, comfortable, reliable and less-invasive biomarkers need to be identified. Here, we reported that serum levels of soluble HB-EGF (sHB-EGF) closely correlated with advanced TNM stage and was higher in EGC than high-risk group. We also identified a remarkable diagnostic accuracy of serum sHB-EGF for GC. To our knowledge, this is the first study to validate sHB-EGF as a desirable serum biomarker for GC.
