Journal of medical genetics ·doi:10.1136/jmedgenet-2021-107904

BackgroundEpithelial tubo-ovarian cancer (EOC) has high mortality partly due to late diagnosis. Prevention is available but may be associated with adverse effects. A multifactorial risk model based on known genetic and epidemiological risk …

British journal of cancer ·doi:10.1038/s41416-019-0718-9

BackgroundOvarian cancer has a poor survival rate due to late diagnosis and improved methods are needed for its early detection. Our primary objective was to identify and incorporate additional biomarkers into longitudinal models to improve…

American journal of obstetrics and gynecology ·doi:10.1016/j.ajog.2019.07.031

BackgroundTransvaginal ultrasound and serum CA125 are routinely used for differential diagnosis of pelvic adnexal mass. Use of human epididymis 4 was approved in the United States in 2011. However, there is scarcity of studies evaluating th…

British journal of cancer ·doi:10.1038/s41416-019-0544-0

BackgroundAn early detection tool for EOC was constructed from analysis of biomarker expression data from serum collected during the UKCTOCS.MethodsThis study included 49 EOC cases (19 Type I and 30 Type II) and 31 controls, representing 48…

BackgroundGenome-wide association studies have identified >30 common SNPs associated with epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC). We evaluated the combined effects of EOC susceptibility SNPs on predicting EOC risk in an independent prospective coh…

British journal of cancer ·doi:10.1038/bjc.2017.199

BackgroundThere is an urgent need for biomarkers for the early detection of ovarian cancer (OC). The purpose of this study was to assess whether changes in serum levels of lecithin-cholesterol acyltransferase (LCAT), sex hormone-binding glo…

Oncotarget ·doi:10.18632/oncotarget.13648

PurposeOvarian cancer (OC) is the most lethal gynaecological cancer. Early detection is required to improve patient survival. Risk estimation models were constructed for Type I (Model I) and Type II (Model II) OC from analysis of Protein Z,…

BACKGROUND: Despite a myriad of attempts in the last three decades to diagnose ovarian cancer (OC) earlier, this clinical aim still remains a significant challenge. Aberrant methylation patterns of linked CpGs analyzed in DNA fragments shed…

International journal of cancer ·doi:10.1002/ijc.30020

Ovarian cancer (OC) has the highest mortality of all gynaecological cancers. Early diagnosis offers an approach to achieving better outcomes. We conducted a blinded-evaluation of prospectively collected preclinical serum from participants i…

Journal of clinical oncology : official journal of the American Society of Clinical Oncology ·doi:10.1200/jco.2014.59.4945

PurposeCancer screening strategies have commonly adopted single-biomarker thresholds to identify abnormality. We investigated the impact of serial biomarker change interpreted through a risk algorithm on cancer detection rates.Patients and …

Journal of assisted reproduction and genetics ·doi:10.1007/s10815-014-0253-9

PurposeTo determine if etiology of infertility modifies the relationship between the duration of ovarian stimulation and success during assisted reproductive technology (ART) cycles.MethodsA prospectively collected database was analyzed in …
