The objective of this study was to evaluate the diagnostic value of serological markers Krebs von den Lungen-6 (KL-6), surfactant protein-A (SP-A), SP-D, chemokine ligand 2 (CCL2), and chemokine 13 (CXCL13) in idiopathic interstitial pneumonia (IIP).
Since January 2014, CAM has been administered in patients with pretreatment predictable radiation pneumonitis high-risk factors, including idiopathic interstitial pneumonias (IIPs), and elevated Krebs von den Lungen-6 (KL-6) and/or surfactant protein D (SP-D), and in patients developing early onset radiation pneumonitis.
