PURPOSE: The aim of the present work was to evaluate the usefulness of CA-125 normalized in time area under the curve (CA-125 AUC) to signalise epithelial ovarian cancer relapse. PATIENTS AND METHODS: Data from a hundred and eleven patients were submitted to two different approaches based on CA-125 AUC increase values to predict patient relapse. In Criterion A total CA-125 AUC normalized in time value (AUC(i)) ...
OBJECTIVE: The aim of the present study was to investigate the usefulness of the CA-125 area under the curve (AUC) as a new kinetic parameter for predicting overall survival in patients with ovarian cancer. In addition, the relationship of CA-125 AUC with other prognostic factors of ovarian cancer was evaluated. METHODS: Ninety-two patients that underwent primary line chemotherapy within 4 months after submissi...
