The acute phase response involves changes in serum concentrations of a number of liver-synthesized proteins. Among these are C-reactive protein (CRP), ferritin (FER), transferrin (Trf) and ceruloplasmin (Cp). Determination of serum CRP, FER, Trf, and Cp was performed in 52 patients with inoperable head and neck cancer (n=11), inoperable esophageal cancer (n=10), rectal cancer (n=9; operation was performed=5, inoperable=4), and lung cancer (n=22), all of whom were treated with radical radiotherapy (RT). Post-radiotherapy CRP levels were significantly higher compared to the preradiotherapy levels (p
