Identification of candidate circulating cisplatin-resistant biomarkers from epithelial ovarian carcinoma cell secretomes

Abstract

Secretome proteomics of EOC cells resulted in the identification of a novel candidate biomarker, COL11A1. The expression level of COL11A1 correlates to worse PFS and OS, and is predicted to reside in peripheral circulation making this an attractive candidate for validation in sera as a biomarker of cisplatin resistance and poor outcome.
