Abstract

See full text

Methods for detecting and measuring metabolic changes useful in the detection of cancer, and in differentiating between ovarian cancer and benign ovarian tumor are described, as well as the unexpected and valuable combination of detecting both lipidomic and aqueous metabolites. Two independent LC-MS-based metabolomics platforms, including a global lipidomics approach, were used to screen for differentially abundant plasma metabolites between cases with serous ovarian carcinoma and controls with benign serous ovarian tumor. The identified biomarkers can be used to distinguish between ovarian cancer and benign tumors. Standards and kits for use with the methods for detecting cancer are also provided.
