Urinary RHAMM levels were also measured by ELISA in 10 OC patients (Fig. 5a) and two patients with LMP ovarian tumors (Fig. 5b) immediately prior to initial cytoreductive surgery, within 2 weeks of cytoreductive surgery and, where possible, at a t3 month post-operative follow-up. This evidence concerns the gene HMMR and ovarian neoplasm.
