A blood protein that rises in most ovarian cancers; useful for tracking treatment, useless for screening on its own.
MUC16 glycoprotein elevated in ~80% of advanced high-grade serous ovarian cancers but also in endometriosis, pregnancy, and other cancers. Used to monitor response (GCIG criteria) and relapse; UKCTOCS showed a CA-125 algorithm plus ultrasound detects cancer earlier without reducing deaths. HE4 and the ROMA index refine triage of pelvic masses.
