Abstract Objectives: To assess the clinical value of early clearance of HE4 and CA125 for platinum sensitive and prognosis in patients with ovarian cancerMethod: HE4 and CA125 value including clinical data of 89 patients with ovarian cancer were collected. The clearance of HE4 and CA125 were assessed base on the platinum sensitivity, two-year PFS, PFS and OS.Results: 16 patients were classified as platinum resistant and 73 as platinum sensitive according to the response to platinum-base chemotherapy. when HE4 clearance after 3rd cycle chemotherapy or CA125 clearance after 1st cycle chemotherapy, it gave the highest AUC of 0.788, with 100% of sensitivity and 57.5% of specificity respectively between platinum resistant and platinum sensitive group. In addition, 59 patients were classified as two-year PFS group and 30 as not achieved two-year PFS group according to obtaining two-year PFS or not. It gave the highest AUC of 0.730, with 83.3% of sensitivity and 62.7% of specificity respectively when HE4 clearance after 3rd cycle chemotherapy or CA125 clearance after 1st cycle. The prolonged PFS and OS were significantly associated by the clearance of HE4 after 3rd cycle chemotherapy (p < 0.0001, p < 0.0001) as well as CA125 after 1st cycle chemotherapy (p < 0.0001, p < 0.0001).Conclusions: Our data suggest that the early clearance of HE4 and CA125 could predict platinum response and prognosis in patients with ovarian cancer. Monitoring the HE4 and CA125 during first-line chemotherapy might be helpful in predicting platinum sensitive and risk to progress and relapse.

This study aims to identify differentially expressed proteins related with platinum sensitivity and to find biomarkers for predicting platinum response and survival outcomes in patients with high-grade serous ovarian cancer (HGSOC). Eligible HGSOC patients were divided into platinum-sensitive and platinum-resistant groups according to platinum-free interval (PFI). Tissue protein lysates from tumor tissues were subjected to an in-solution tryptic digest followed by tandem mass tag (TMT) labeling of the resulting peptides and mass spectrometric analysis. Candidate proteins were identified using differentially expressed protein and gene set enrichment analysis (GSEA) and confirmed by immunohistochemistry (IHC), and their survival relevance was evaluated in The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) ovarian cancer cohort. The results showed that there was a significant difference in the protein expression profiling between the two patient groups. In the GSEA model, a gene set of 239 extracellular matrix (ECM)-related proteins was significantly enriched in the platinum-sensitive group [normalized enrichment score (NES) = 3.82, q &lt; 10−5], and this finding was confirmed in TCGA ovarian cancer cohort. Interestingly, an ECM-related gene expression, serpin family A member 10 (SERPINA10), was identified to be significantly positively correlated with overall survival (OS) and progression-free survival (PFS) in TCGA ovarian cancer cohort (all p &lt; 0.05). IHC results demonstrated that HGSOC patients with high SERPINA10 expression had longer PFI than the patients with low SERPINA10 expression (9 vs. 5 months, p = 0.038), and the SERPINA10 expression had an area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) value of 0.758 (95% CI = 0.612–0.905; p = 0.005) to discriminate the platinum-sensitive group from the platinum-resistant group. In conclusion, the results suggested that SERPINA10 could be a promising biomarker for predicting the response and survival in platinum-based chemotherapy of HGSOC.

Abstract Neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) and systemic inflammatory index (SII) are prognostic factors in epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC). Their predictive value for platinum-sensitivity and their role in recurrent EOC are unknown. A total of 375 EOC patients were retrospectively analyzed. The correlation between baseline NLR and SII, and platinum-free interval (PFI) according to first line bevacizumab treatment were analyzed using logistic regression analyses adjusted for baseline patient characteristics. Subsequently NLR and SII calculated before second line treatment initiation were evaluated to identify a potential correlation with progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) in platinum-sensitive and in platinum-resistant population. In multivariate analysis, NLR ≥ 3 is an independent predictive factor for PFI at 6 months in the chemotherapy group (OR = 2.77, 95% CI 1.38–5.56, p = 0.004), not in bevacizumab treated patients. After having adjusted for ECOG performance status, histology, ascites, bevacizumab treatment at second line and BRCA status, NLR ≥ 3 and SII ≥ 730 are significantly associated with worse OS in platinum-sensitive (HR = 2.69, 95% CI 1.60–4.53, p = 0.002; HR = 2.11, 95% CI 1.29–3.43, p = 0.003, respectively), not in platinum-resistant EOC patients. Low NLR is an independent predictive factor for platinum-sensitivity in patients treated without bevacizumab. NLR and SII are prognostic factors in recurrent platinum-sensitive EOC patients.
