Correlates of circulating ovarian cancer early detection markers and their contribution to discrimination of early detection models: results from the EPIC cohort
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2017-03-20)
Background:
Ovarian cancer early detection markers CA125, CA15.3, HE4, and CA72.4 vary between healthy women,
limiting their utility for screening.
<br>Methods:
We evaluated cross-sectional relationships between lifestyle and reproductive factors and these markers
among controls (
n
= 1910) from a nested case-control study in the European Prospective Investigation into

Development and validation of circulating CA125 prediction models in postmenopausal women
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2019-11-26)
<i>Background</i>
- Cancer Antigen 125 (CA125) is currently the best available ovarian cancer screening biomarker. However, CA125 has been limited by low sensitivity and specificity in part due to normal variation between individuals. Personal characteristics that influence CA125 could be used to improve its performance as screening biomarker.<p><p>
<i>Methods</i>
- We developed and validated ...
