The invention provides methods and compositions for distinguishing ovarian cancer from a benign pelvic mass using two or more of the following biomarkers: IL-6, MMP9, tPA, IGFBP2, MMP7, Tenascin, NAP2, glycodelin, MCSF, MMP2, Inhibin A, uPAR, and EGFR. The methods are useful in distinguishing a benign pelvic mass from ovarian cancer in subjects, particularly in subjects identified as having increased CA125 levels. |
