Abstract
Results: The results showed that increased serum protein concentration of HE-4 (pMol/L) and CA-125 (U/ml) in the ovarian cancer group mean (SD)/median (range) 329.61±336.55/199 (28.72-1064) and 521.36±572.60/287 (10.50-2377), than non-cancer control group 64.80±38.51/54.53 (21 -160) and 28.35±10.80/28 (10-50) respectively (p<0.05). The receiver operating characteristic curve, the area under the curve (ROC-AUC) (95%CI) values of serum HE-4 was 0.85 (0.74-0.95). The sensitivity and specificity of HE-4 in diagnosing malignant ovarian tumors was 84.84% and 75.00%, respectively at ideal cutoff point that provided the best and highest accuracy in our own study and its level was related to clinical staging.
