Zong-ting Yan, Ming Huang, Aimei Pang

Abstract

Objective To investigate clinical value of levels of CA125 and LPA as a panel for early diagnosis of ovarian cancer.Methods The levels of two tumor markers(CA125 and LPA)in serum were determined in 76 patients with ovarian cancer,35 patients with benign tumor and 29 healthy control.Results The results showed that the levels of two tumor markera in ovarian cancer patients were significantly higher than those in benign tumor patients and controls(P＜0.05).Butuo siguificant difforences was loud betwcen benigutumor patient and coatrols.Conclusion Combined detection of the two markers represent a potential biomarker for diagnosis of epithelial ovarian cancer because of its diagnostic accuracy in ovarian cancer case. Key words: Ovarian Neoplasms; Antigens
