The present application includes biomarkers, methods, devices, reagents, systems, and kits for the detection and diagnosis of ovarian cancer. In one aspect, the application provides biomarkers that can be used alone or in various combinations to diagnose ovarian cancer or permit the differential diagnosis of a pelvic mass as benign or malignant. In another aspect, methods are provided for diagnosing ovarian cancer in an individual, where the methods include detecting, in a biological sample from an individual, at least one biomarker value corresponding to at least one biomarker selected from the group of biomarkers provided in Table 1, wherein the individual is classified as having ovarian cancer, or the likelihood of the individual having ovarian cancer is determined, based on the at least one biomarker value. |
