Ovarian Cancer Screening: CA 125 Only elevated in 50% of women with stage 1 ovarian cancer. Can be elevated in many non-malignant conditions. In premenopausal women, varies with menses: CA-125: 51 32 62 Postmenopausal women < 35 U/mL is normal 4/12/2016 12
Ovarian Cancer Screening: Serum Biomarkers OvaSure (6 proteins) and OvaCheck (11 proteins) OVA-1: CA-125, transthyretin, apolipoprotein A1, beta2 microglobulin, transferrin ROMA: CA-125 & HE4 sensitivity specificity NPV CA-125 OVA-1 ROMA H ROMA L 77% 68% 87% 94% 35% 93% 76/92% 75% 93% 100/92% 75% 99% $50 $600 $100 Sensitivity: the chance that if you have the disease, the test will detect it high sensitivity = low false negative rate Specificity: the chance that if you don t have the disease, the test will be negative high specificity = low false positive rate Negative predictive value: the chance that if the test is negative, you don t have the disease high NPV = low false positive rate 4/12/2016 13 Li, A.

In the US, the number of carriers of actionable mutations in BRCA1/2 is between 1 in 300 to 500 women = 250,000 to 400,000 adult women Identification of gene mutations in women after a cancer diagnosis is a failure of cancer prevention Identification of mutation carriers should be independent of family history & physician referral 4/12/2016 22
