Serial CA125 measurements in 169 patients with epithelial ovarian carcinoma were obtained. Changes in serum CA125 measurements are shown to reflect changes in clinical status. For patients with macroscopic disease receiving chemotherapy, the sensitivity and specificity for predicting response are shown to be 95% and 86% respectively. For patients with no known disease, the sensitivity and specificity for detecting relapse are shown to be 86% and 91% respectively. The clinical correlates with the level of serum CA125 were examined and the most important is shown to be amount of residual disease.
对169例上皮性卵巢癌患者进行了连续的CA125检测。血清CA125检测结果的变化被证明可反映临床状态的变化。对于接受化疗的有肉眼可见病灶的患者,预测反应的敏感性和特异性分别为95%和86%。对于无已知病灶的患者,检测复发的敏感性和特异性分别为86%和91%。研究了血清CA125水平与临床指标的相关性,结果显示最重要的指标是残留病灶量。
