Amiodarone is used to treat life-threatening cardiac arrhythmias. Amiodarone-induced pulmonary toxicity (APT) can be difficult to diagnose. APT may result in increased mucus production and mucin expression. Thus, serum mucin-1 was evaluated as a marker for amiodarone-induced pulmonary toxicity. Concentrations of mucin-1 in peripheral blood were determined using cancer-associated serum antigen (CASA) assay in patients taking amiodarone. Eight of ten patients who developed major amiodarone toxicity had high serum CASA levels. Patients with toxicity had a significantly higher mean rank CASA concentration compared with those without major toxicity. CASA shows potential as a marker for amiodarone-induced toxicity, particularly pulmonary toxicity.
