Prognostic Role of Serum Antibody Immunity to p53 Oncogenic Protein in Ovarian Cancer: A Systematic Review and a Meta-Analysis.

ABSTRACT: Serum p53 autoantibodies (p53-AAbs) are the product of an endogenous immune response against p53 overexpression driven by the ovarian tumour. The p53-AAbs are detectable only in a subset of patients. To date, the evidence of an association between the presence of p53-AAbs and ovarian cancer outcomes has been poorly investigated.A systematic literature search was performed to identify eligible studies investigating the association of serum p53-AAbs and overall survival (OS) and disease free survival (DFS). Associations between presence of serum p53-AAbs and baseline tumour characteristics were also evaluated. Pooled hazard ratios (HRs) and corresponding 95% confidence intervals (CI) were computed to estimate the prognostic impact of serum p53-AAbs. Heterogeneity between studies was assessed.A total of 583 patients (7 studies) for OS and 356 patients (4 studies) for DFS were included in the meta-analysis. Presence of p53-AAbs was not associated to OS (pooled uni- multivariate HR = 1.09; 95% CI: 0.55-2.16), and a large heterogeneity was found. When only multivariate HRs were pooled together (4 studies), presence of p53-AAbs was significantly associated to a better OS (pooled HR = 0.57; 95% CI: 0.40-0.81), and no significant heterogeneity was observed. A reduced DFS was associated to p53-AAbs (pooled uni- multivariate HR = 1.37; 95% CI: 0.83-2.25), though not significantly and with a moderate heterogeneity.The prognostic significance of serum p53-AAbs in ovarian cancer was diverging according to uni or multivariate models used. Since the results of this work were based on only few investigations, large prospective studies are needed to better define the role of antibody immunity against p53.

Project description:BackgroundMutant p53 protein overexpression has been reported to induce serum antibodies against p53. Various studies assessing the diagnostic value of serum p53 antibody in patients with esophageal cancer remain controversial. This study aims to comprehensively and quantitatively summarize the potential diagnostic value of serum p53 antibody in esophageal cancer.MethodsWe systematically searched PubMed and Embase until 31st May 2012, without language restriction. Studies were assessed for quality using QUADAS (quality assessment of studies of diagnostic accuracy). Positive likelihood ratio (PLR) and negative likelihood ratio (NLR) were pooled separately and compared with overall accuracy measures diagnostic odds ratio (DOR) and symmetric summary receiver operating characteristic (sROC). The PLR and NLR and their 95% confidence interval (CI) were calculated using a fixed effects model according to the Mantel-Haensed method and random effects model based on the work of Der Simonian and laird, respectively.ResultsFifteen studies (cases?=?1079, controls?=?2260) met the inclusion criteria for the meta-analysis. Approximately 53.33% (8/15) of the included studies were of high quality (QUADAS score?8), which were retrospective case-control studies. The summary estimates for quantitative analysis of serum p53 antibody in the diagnosis of esophageal cancer were PLR 6.95 (95% CI: 4.77-9.51), NLR 0.75 (95%CI: 0.72-0.78) and DOR 9.65 (95%CI: 7.04-13.22). However, we found significant heterogeneity between NLRs.ConclusionsThe current evidence suggests serum p53 antibody has a potential diagnostic value for esophageal cancer. However, its discrimination power is not perfect because of low sensitivity.ImpactThese results suggest that s-p53-antibody may be useful for monitoring residual tumor cells and for aiding in the selection of candidates for less invasive treatment procedures because of the high specificity of s-p53-antibody. Further studies may need to identify patterns of multiple biomarkers to further increase the power of EC detection.

Project description:BackgroundMutant p53 protein over-expression has been reported to induce serum antibodies against p53. We assessed the diagnostic precision of serum p53 (s-p53) antibodies for diagnosis of cancer patients and compared the positive rates of the s-p53 antibody in different types of cancers.MethodsWe systematically searched PubMed and Embase, through May 31, 2012. Studies were assessed for quality using QUADAS (quality assessment of studies of diagnostic accuracy). The positive likelihood ratio (PLR) and negative likelihood ratio (NLR) were pooled separately and compared with overall accuracy measures using diagnostic odds ratios (DORs) and Area under the curve(AUC). Meta regression and subgroup analyses were done, and heterogeneity and publication bias were assessed.ResultsOf 1089 studies initially identified, 100 eligible studies with 23 different types of tumor met the inclusion criteria for the meta-analysis (cases = 15953, controls = 8694). However, we could conduct independent meta analysis on only 13 of 36 types of tumors. Approximately 56% (56/100) of the included studies were of high quality (QUADAS score≥8). The summary estimates for quantitative analysis of serum p53 antibody in the diagnosis of cancers were: PLR 5.75 (95% CI: 4.60-7.19), NLR 0.81 (95%CI: 0.79-0.83) and DOR 7.56 (95% CI: 6.02-9.50). However, for the 13 types of cancers on which meta-analysis was conducted, the ranges for PLR (2.33-11.05), NLR (0.74-0.97), DOR (2.86-13.80), AUC(0.29-0.81), and positive rate (4.47%-28.36%) indicated significant heterogeneity. We found that breast, colorectal, esophageal, gastric, hepatic, lymphoma, lung and ovarian cancer had relatively reasonable diagnostic accuracy. The remaining results of the five types of cancers suggested that s-p53 antibody had limited value.ConclusionsThe current evidence suggests that s-p53 antibody has potential diagnostic value for cancer, especially for breast, colorectal, esophageal, gastric, hepatic, lymphoma, lung and ovarian cancer. The results showed that s-p53 antibody had high correlation with cancers.

Project description:BackgroundCA-125 is a clinical biomarker with predictive effect on the prognosis of different cancers. Numerous clinical trials have been conducted to investigate the possibility of using the pretreatment level of CA-125 to predict the prognosis of epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC). However, its value in predicting prognosis remains controversial. The purpose of this meta-analysis was to assess the predictive value of pretreatment CA-125 levels for prognosis in EOC patients.MethodsWe searched the EMBASE, Cochrane library, PubMed and Web of Science databases for studies published up to 3 December 2021, according to specific inclusion and exclusion criteria. The clinical studies that were included investigated the relationship between pretreatment CA-125 levels and ovarian cancer prognosis. Combined hazard ratios (HR) of overall survival (OS) and progression-free survival (PFS) reported in the studies were compared and analyzed using fixed-effects/random-effects models. Sensitivity analysis was used to assess study stability, while Egger's and Begg's tests were used to assess publication bias.ResultsThis meta-analysis included 23 studies published in 2004 - 2021 with a total of 10,594 EOC patients. Comprehensive analysis demonstrated that the serum level of CA-125 before treatment was significantly correlated with overall survival (OS: HR=1.62, 95%CI=1.270-2.060, p<0.001) and progression-free survival (PFS: HR=1.59, PFS: HR=1.59, 95%CI=1.44~1.76, p<0.001). After comparing data from different FIGO stages and treatments, we discovered that a high pre-treatment serum CA-125 level was associated with a low survival rate.ConclusionAccording to the results of this study, a higher pre-treatment serum CA-125 level is associated with poor survival outcomes, which can be utilized to predict the prognosis of EOC patients. Pre-treatment serum CA-125 level might provide reliable basis for predicting the risk of EOC disease progression.

Project description:BackgroundThere remain controversies over the conclusion of different serum phosphate levels as prognostic predictors of sepsis patients. As such, this study investigated the association between different serum phosphate and the prognosis of sepsis.MethodsData from PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library, and Web of Science were systematically retrieved from the inception of databases to June 1, 2023 and independently screened and extracted by two authors. Binary variables in the study were estimated as relative risk ratio (RR) and 95% confidence interval (CI), and continuous variables were estimated as mean and standard deviation. The Newcastle-Ottawa Scale (NOS) was employed to evaluate the quality of the included studies, and subgroup analysis and sensitivity analysis were performed for all outcomes to explore the sources of heterogeneity.ResultsTen studies were included in this study including 38,320 patients with sepsis or septic shock. Against normal serum phosphate levels, a high serum phosphate level was associated with an elevated all-cause mortality risk (RR = 1.46; 95% CI [1.22-1.74]; P = 0.000) and prolonged Intensive Care Unit (ICU) length of stay (LOS) (WMD = 0.63; 95% CI [0.27-0.98]; P = 0.001). However, there was no significant difference in the in-hospital LOS (WMD = 0.22; 95% CI [-0.61-1.05]; P = 0.609). A low serum phosphate level was not significantly associated with the all-cause mortality risk (RR = 0.97; 95% CI [0.86-1.09]; P = 0.588), ICU LOS (WMD = -0.23; 95% CI [-0.75-0.29]; P = 0.394) and in-hospital LOS (WMD = -0.62; 95% CI [-1.72-0.49]; P = 0.274).ConclusionSepsis patients with high serum phosphate levels before therapeutic interventions were associated with a significant increase in the all-cause mortality risk, prolonged ICU LOS, and no significant difference in in-hospital LOS. Sepsis patients with low serum phosphate levels before interventions may have a reduced risk of all-cause mortality, shorter ICU LOS, and in-hospital LOS, but the results were not statistically significant.
