Byongeye kandi, kumenya AFP birashobora kandi gukoreshwa mugusuzuma imikorere ya kanseri y'umwijima. Mu kwita mbere yo kubyara, kwipimisha AFP nabwo bikoreshwa mugupima ibishoboka kuvuka kwavutse bidasanzwe, nk'udusimba twa neural tube nudukuta two munda. Muncamake, alpha-fetoprotein gutahura bifite akamaro gakomeye ko kwisuzumisha no gusuzuma agaciro.
