CA125 Levels

are there any studies detailing a link between CA125 levels and mortality/morbidity once treatment options run out?

  • Hello and thank you for posting. 

    I am sorry that you have these concerns about ovarian cancer that can't be cured. I am unaware of any links between the CA125 level and the likely prognosis (how long left) a patient has.

    Many other factors affect someone's situation when treatment options run out, not just the blood results. Usually, the best people to talk this through are the hospital team as they know the patient and the situation.

    This may be something that you'd like to talk through with one of our nurses on our helpline.  The number to call is Freephone 0808 800 4040 and the lines are open from 9 am till 5 pm, Monday to Friday.

    Take care, and I hope you get the information you need.

    Sarah.
