目的:探讨卵巢上皮癌患者血清中人附睾蛋白4(HE4)的水平与患者铂类化疗效果的关系。方法:回顾分析52例卵巢上皮癌患者的临床资料和随访信息,采用电化学发光法检测患者治疗前和随访时血清HE4及CA125水平,分析血清HE4及CA125水平与铂类化疗效果的关系。结果:52例患者中,31例铂类化疗敏感,21例铂类化疗抵抗。铂类化疗抵抗组患者治疗前血清HE4及CA125水平明显高于铂类化疗敏感组。治疗前血清HE4水平对卵巢癌铂类化疗疗效的预测效能高于CA125。铂类化疗抵抗组患者随访时血清HE4水平明显高于铂类化疗敏感组(276.5pmo/L vs 56.38pmo/L,P0.001)。随访时血清HE4可预测铂类化疗效果,当界值点为127.40pmo/L时,灵敏度达81%,特异度达93.5%,阳性预测值(PPV)为89.5%,阴性预测值(NPV)为87.9%,曲线下面积(AUC)为0.919。随访时血清CA125取界值点为76.4U/L时预测铂类化疗效果的灵敏度为95.2%,特异度为90.3%,PPV为85%,NPV为87.5%,AUC为0.876。随访时血清HE4预测铂类化疗效果的AUC也大于CA125。Logistic多因素回归分析结果显示,随访时血清HE4水平与发生铂类化疗抵抗密切相关(P=0.027)。结论:随访时血清HE4水平可以预测卵巢癌铂类化疗的反应。 相似文献
To assess the preoperative serum levels of CA 125 with its diagnostic role and to evaluate the p53 expression in patients of primary ovarian neoplasms. We also wished to judge their relationship with other parameters like clinical staging and histopathologic tumor type.
Materials and Methods
The present study was conducted on 86 patients during the study period of 2.5 years. Preoperative CA 125 levels were evaluated by an automated immunoassay analyzer. p53 expression was judged immunohistochemically with pre-diluted monoclonal antibody. An objective scoring was done depending on distinct nuclear immunopositivity.
Results
Median value of preoperative CA 125 levels was 32 U/mL in benign surface epithelial-stromal tumors (BSEST), 53 U/mL in borderline surface epithelial-stromal tumors (BOT), 346 U/mL in malignant surface epithelial-stromal tumors (MSEST) and 560 U/mL in serous adenocarcinomas (SAC). Most of ovarian tumors were in the FIGO stage I (64 cases, 74.4%), but higher stages (II, III, IV) were observed mostly in MSESTs. SACs displayed the maximum p53 expression. Considering the cut-off value of more than 35 U/mL in CA 125 levels, the sensitivity to diagnose MSESTs was 94.7%. Preoperative CA 125 levels strongly and positively correlated with FIGO staging and p53 expression. Similarly p53 expression strongly and positively correlated with FIGO staging and histopathological categories.
Conclusion
Higher values of preoperative CA 125 levels and higher expression p53 are associated with MSESTs and BOTs especially of serous type. They strongly correlate with each other and with tumor stage. But there is no serum CA 125 concentration that can clearly differentiate benign and malignant ovarian masses. 相似文献
AbstractBackground: Ovarian cancer (OC) represents the eighth most common cancer among women and the second most frequently diagnosed gynecological malignancy in the United States and Europe. Correct and fast referral of patients with OC is mandatory to ensure optimal treatment and to improve the prognosis of patients with OC. Approaches to detect OC may be based on a gynecological examination, an elevated serum CA125 level, a Risk of Malignancy Index (RMI) higher than 200, an elevated serum HE4 level, or other modalities such as Risk of Ovarian Malignancy Algorithm (ROMA), Risk of Ovarian Cancer Algorithm (ROCA), or Copenhagen Index (CPH-I).Aim: To describe biomarkers that potentially improve the detection/risk estimation of OC.Results: The ability to differentiate OC from benign and borderline ovarian tumors was analyzed using Receiver Operating Characteristics (ROC) curves resulting in Area Under the Curve (AUC) of 0.920 for CA125, 0.933 for HE4 and 0.946 for ROMA. The ROC curves of OC versus benign ovarian tumors shows that the CPH-I (AUC?=?0.959) is equivalent with RMI (AUC?=?0.958).Conclusion: Both ROMA and CPH-I could potentially shorten the time spent before OC patients reach a tertiary center thereby improve risk estimation/diagnosis. Biomarker research still has to be performed in relevant clinical settings before any overall decisions can be made with respect to screening. 相似文献
Brain imaging is considered one of the most fruitful applications of radioisotope scanning. Rolipram, a selective phospodiesterase‐4 inhibitor, has been labeled using [125I] with chloramine‐T (Ch‐T) as an oxidizing agent. Factors, such as the amount of substrate, pH, the amount of oxidizing agent, temperature, and the reaction time, have been systematically studied to optimize the iodination process. In addition, bio‐distribution studies have indicated that the brain uptake of [125I]iodorolipram is 7.6 ± 0.33 injected dose/g organ at 10 minutes post‐injection, which cleared from the brain with time until it reaches 1.30 ± 0.17% at 1 hour post‐injection. Therefore, iodorolipram could be considered as a potential, new selective radiotracer for brain imaging. 相似文献
