ABSTRACT

Timely detection of cancer rescues lives and greatly lowers cancer mortality. As aresult, a lot of time and energy has gone into investigating novel technologies forthe early detection of the illness. A wide variety of biochemical entities, includingcomplete tumor cells detected in bodily fluid, proteins, carbohydrates, nucleic acids,and tiny metabolites, as well as cytogenetic and cytokinetic characteristics, areincluded in the category of cancer biomarkers. Risk evaluation, diagnosis,prognosis, treatment toxicity and effectiveness prediction, and recurrence may allbe done using them. In this review, we provide an overview of complete detail ofchallenges associated with detecting early-stage tumors, discovery of biomarkers,biomarkers in cancer detection, diagnosis, and prognosis, types of cancerbiomarker, role of biomarkers in cancer research & medicine as well as futureperspectives of biomarkers.
