Performance of the IOTA ADNEX model combined with HE4 for identifying early-stage ovarian cancer

ObjectiveThis work was designed to investigate the performance of the International Ovarian Tumor Analysis (IOTA) ADNEX (Assessment of Different NEoplasias in the adneXa) model combined with human epithelial protein 4 (HE4) for early ovarian cancer (OC) detection.MethodsA total of 376 women who were...

description ObjectiveThis work was designed to investigate the performance of the International Ovarian Tumor Analysis (IOTA) ADNEX (Assessment of Different NEoplasias in the adneXa) model combined with human epithelial protein 4 (HE4) for early ovarian cancer (OC) detection.MethodsA total of 376 women who were hospitalized and operated on in Women and Children’s Hospital of Chongqing Medical University were selected. Ultrasonographic images, cancer antigen-125 (CA 125) levels, and HE4 levels were obtained. All cases were analyzed and the histopathological diagnosis serves as the reference standard. Based on the IOTA ADNEX model post-processing software, the risk prediction value was calculated. We analyzed receiver operating characteristic curves to determine whether the IOTA ADNEX model alone or combined with HE4 provided better diagnostic accuracy.ResultsThe area under the curve (AUC) of the ADNEX model alone or combined with HE4 in predicting benign and malignant ovarian tumors was 0.914 (95% CI, 0.881–0.941) and 0.916 (95% CI, 0.883–0.942), respectively. With the cutoff risk of 10%, the ADNEX model had a sensitivity of 0.93 (95% CI, 0.87–0.97) and a specificity of 0.73 (95% CI, 0.67–0.78), while combined with HE4, it had a sensitivity of 0.90 (95% CI, 0.84–0.95) and a specificity of 0.81 (95% CI, 0.76–0.86). The IOTA ADNEX model combined with HE4 was better at improving the accuracy of the differential diagnosis between different OCs than the IOTA ADNEX model alone. A significant difference was found in separating borderline masses from Stage II–IV OC (p = 0.0257).ConclusionsA combination of the IOTA ADNEX model and HE4 can improve the specificity of diagnosis of ovarian benign and malignant tumors and increase the sensitivity and effectiveness of the differential diagnosis of Stage II–IV OC and borderline tumors.
