Abstract

Recent discoveries in the field of biomarkers for screening and early detection of ovarian cancer (OC) identified current needs for biomarkers capable of recognizing preclinical disease. The suggested approaches are (1) development of highly analytically sensitive CA 125 assays capable of detecting CA 125 released from small cancerous and preneoplastic lesions; (2) identification of biomarkers effective in CA 125-negative cases; and (3) performing biomarker discovery in samples obtained from patients with prophylactic bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy with pathologically confirmed preneoplastic lesions, or in appropriate animal models of ovarian cancer.
