The diagnostic accuracy of two human epididymis protein 4 (HE4) testing systems in combination with CA125 in the differential diagnosis of ovarian masses
Clinical chemistry and laboratory medicine ·doi:10.1515/cclm.2011.709

BACKGROUND: Cancer antigen 125 (CA125) is the best known single tumor marker for ovarian cancer (OC). We investigated whether the additional information of the human epididymis protein 4 (HE4) improves diagnostic accuracy. METHODS: We retro…

Afamin and apolipoprotein A-IV: novel protein markers for ovarian cancer
Cancer epidemiology, biomarkers & prevention : a publication of the American Association for Cancer Research, cosponsored by the American Society of Preventive Oncology ·doi:10.1158/1055-9965.EPI-08-0653

Comparative proteomics identified the vitamin E-binding plasma protein afamin as a potential novel tumor marker for ovarian cancer. In addition, we observed in a previous small study decreased plasma concentrations of apolipoprotein A-IV (a…

Predictive value of CA 125 and CA 72-4 in ovarian borderline tumors
Clinical chemistry and laboratory medicine ·doi:10.1515/CCLM.2009.134

BACKGROUND: The aim of this study was to assess the prognostic value of cancer antigen (CA) 125 and CA 72-4 in patients with ovarian borderline tumor (BOT). METHODS: All women diagnosed and treated for BOT at our institution between 1981 a…
