Abstract
The present invention relates to a biomarker for early stage ovarian cancer. Specifically, expression of the biomarker Annexin A2 is higher in the plasma of subjects with early stage ovarian cancer. Accordingly, methods of detecting early stage ovarian cancer in a subject, of identifying a subject having early stage ovarian cancer, and of determining if a subject is susceptible to developing ovarian cancer, are provided. Also provided are methods of screening candidate therapeutic agents for use in treating early stage ovarian cancer, and compositions and kits for detecting early stage ovarian cancer in a subject, for identifying a subject having early stage ovarian cancer, and for determining if a subject is susceptible to developing ovarian cancer.
