Cancer antigen 125 in ovarian cancer surveillance: a decision analysis model
We used decision analysis techniques with Markov cohort modeling to examine the role of cancer antigen 125 (CA-125) in follow-up surveillance strategies among patients with advanced ovarian cancer. Utilities were derived from a societal perspective.Using quality-adjusted life years (QALYS) as the outcome variable, the value of CA-125 monitoring for asymptomatic women with ovarian cancer was fou...
متن کاملValidity of Cancer Antigen-125 (CA-125) and Risk of Malignancy Index (RMI) in the Diagnosis of Ovarian Cancer.
OBJECTIVE We sought to determine the validity of cancer antigen 125 (CA-125) and the risk of malignancy index (RMI) in the diagnosis of ovarian cancer in women presenting with adnexal lesions of various histopathology types. METHODS This retrospective cross- sectional study included all women with adnexal lesions who were evaluated at the Royal Hospital, Oman, between January 2012 and Decembe...
متن کاملSerum CA 125 and ovarian cancer
of death from gynaecological cancer among women in Western countries. Epithelial ovarian cancer is responsible for 85-90% of all primary ovarian tumours. Because of the asymptomatic nature of the disease, ovarian cancer is usually not detected in the early stages and therefore many women present with advanced disease and systemic metastases. Approximately 70-80% of patients present with late st...
متن کاملBayesian Decision Analysis for Recurrent Ovarian Cancer
All cancers are usually classified further according to the extent or stage of disease so that therapies may be tailored to the particular disease stage. Moreover, detection of asymptomatic recurrences is associated with prolonged overall survival and survival from the time of initial detection of recurrence. This study applied Bayesian decision theorem to an inferential problem of recurrent ov...
متن کاملSerum human epididymis protein 4 vs carbohydrate antigen 125 for ovarian cancer diagnosis: a systematic review.
BACKGROUND Human epididymis protein 4 (HE4) measurements in serum have been proposed for improving the specificity of laboratory identification of ovarian cancer (OC). OBJECTIVE To critically revise the available literature on the comparison between the diagnostic accuracy of HE4 and carbohydrate antigen 125 (CA-125) to confirm the additional clinical value of HE4. METHODS A literature sear...
