16058 Background: Ovarian serous carcinoma (OSC) is the most common ovarian cancer sub-type and fourth leading cause of cancer-related deaths for women in the US. Unfortunately, more than two-thirds of women with ovarian cancer present at an advanced stage, when prognosis is poor. Developing methods to detect ovarian cancer at stage I, when it is 90% curable by surgery, or at stage II where survival is 70%, offers the best prospect for changing the clinical course of this dread malignancy. Methods: Serum specimens were collected both before and 3–6 weeks after tumor resection for patients with Stage I/ II high-grade serous carcinoma. None suffered recurrence within 6 months. We collected 98 ‘paired’ (pre- and post operative) serum specimens; including 41 benign paired specimens for comparison. A SELDI-TOF mass spectrometer was used to generate the serum proteomic profiles, optimized for the 2,000–40,000 m/z range. All data analyses were performed in a blinded manner using Bioconductor, an extension of the R-project statistical platform (v2.2.0). Raw spectra were processed as follows: baseline subtraction, spectra normalization, and differential peak detection. Aligned peaks were sorted into groups, based on tumor pathology and pre- vs. post-operative specimen type, and compared using a two tailed homoscedastic t-test. Results: The proteomes of pre- and post-operative serum from 10 patients with OSC were evaluated for significant changes in composition and compared with a set of 8 ‘normal’ specimens (i.e. patients undergoing major surgery for benign disease). We identified 18 serum components common to all OSC pre-op specimens that were extensively reduced or absent (p < 0.05) after tumor resection and 26 components capable of discerning pre-op OSC from pre-op normal specimens (p < 0.05). Most notable of these are components with m/z ratios of 2029.1, 2203.6, 6442.3, and 6851.9, based on level of significance (p < 0.001). Conclusions: These results validate the power of our ‘pre- vs. post- operative’ analysis strategy for the identification of novel serum biomarker candidates. Efforts are currently focused on expanding the scope of our specimen bank and identifying the putative biomarker candidates via mass spectrometry. No significant financial relationships to disclose.
