BACKGROUND: Soluble mesothelin-related peptide (SMRP) is a potential marker for malignant pleural mesothelioma (MPM), which may be useful for screening high-risk asbestos-exposed individuals. METHODS: We evaluated SMRP in serum from MPM patients (n = 90), lung cancer patients (n = 170), age and tobacco-matched asbestos-exposed individuals (n = 66), and in MPM pleural effusions (n = 45), benign effusions (n = 30), and non-MPM effusions (n = 20) using the MesoMark enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay kit (Fujirebio Diagnostics, Malvern, PA). Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves were used to define true and false positive rates at various cutoffs. RESULTS: Mean serum SMRP levels were higher in MPM compared with lung cancer (5.67 +/- 0.82 nM [mean +/- standard error of the mean vs 1.99 +/- 0.43 nM, p
