Problems solved by technology

CA125 is a commonly used tumor marker, but the specificity and sensitivity of CA125 are low, and it is prone to false negative or false positive
Compared with CA125, HE4 has higher sensitivity and stronger specificity, but it is still of little significance for the early auxiliary diagnosis of ovarian cancer. The sensitivity of a single HE4 for auxiliary diagnosis of stage I ovarian cancer is only 45.9%.
Simultaneous detection of two biomarkers can improve detection sensitivity, but the false positive rate is high, and early auxiliary diagnosis is still not possible
Neither CA125 nor HE4 accurately predicts early ovarian cancer

Embodiment Construction

[0020] The present invention will be described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0021] The invention provides the use of cutinase protein (YKL-40) in combination with cancer antigen 125 (CA125) and human epididymis protein 4 (HE4) in early ovarian cancer screening.

[0022] CA125 is a glycoprotein derived from columnar epithelial cells. In 1983, Bast et al. first measured the content of serum CA125, and then researchers analyzed the level of CA125 in ovarian cancer patients to determine the role of this molecule in the auxiliary diagnosis of ovarian cancer. CA125 is currently the main serum marker for screening early ovarian cancer. It has been widely used in clinical auxiliary diagnosis, curative effect observation and disease monitoring, but its sensitivity is low when used alone for auxiliary diagnosis of early ovarian cancer. In early ovarian cancer, only some stage I patients have serum CA125 elevation (>35U / ml), and physiol...

Abstract

The present invention discloses a method and kit for screening early-stage ovarian cancer. According to the method, early-stage ovarian cancer is screened through combined detection of keratanase protein (YKL-40), cancer antigen 125 (CA125) and human epididymis protein 4 (HE4). With the method, the early-stage ovarian cancer prediction accuracy can be improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of tumor screening, in particular to an early ovarian cancer screening method and a kit. Background technique [0002] Ovarian cancer is one of the common malignant tumors of female reproductive organs. Its incidence rate ranks third among all kinds of gynecological cancers in women, but its mortality rate ranks first, posing a serious threat to women's life and health. Due to the complexity of embryonic development, tissue anatomy and endocrine function of the ovary, its pathogenesis has not yet been studied clearly. And because there are no obvious symptoms in the early clinical stage of ovarian cancer, most patients are already in the advanced stage when they are discovered, and can only receive conservative treatment. Some research reports suggest that only 30% of ovarian cancer tumors are found to be confined to the ovary during exploratory laparotomy, and most of them have spread to the bilateral appe...
