Chemoproteomics-based discovery of novel biomarkers for high-grade serous ovarian cancer recurrence through a patient-derived xenograft strategy
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: High grade serous ovarian carcinoma (HGSC) is the most common and lethal subtype of gynecologic malignancy in women. The current standard of treatment combines cytoreductive surgery and chemotherapy. Despite the efficacy of initial treatment, most patients develop cancer recurrence, and 70% of patients die within 5-years of initial diagnosis. CA125 is the current FDA-approved biomarker used in the clinic to monitor response to treatment and recurrence. Although increasing levels of CA125 precede clinical symptoms of recurrence, often second-look surgeries often reveal microscopic and macroscopic tumors present during remission. Here, we describe a novel strategy for the discovery of serum biomarkers aimed at earlier detection of cancer recurrence. We combined HGSC patient-derived xenograft models, chemoproteomic enrichment of N-glycosylated peptides and systematic development of targeted proteomics assays for rapid biomarker identification and orthogonal verification. The verification of candidates in two independent, longitudinal serum cohorts from HGSC patients (n=96 serum samples) identified four novel biomarker candidates for earlier detection of HGSC recurrence.
