Women with borderline tumors (), ovarian carcinoma (), or other pelvic malignancies () were matched to four healthy controls each.Results: Overall, there were no associations of antibodies with EOC. However, chlamydial HSP60-1 IgG antibodies were associated with type II ovarian cancer () in women with plasma samples obtained >1 year prior to diagnosis (). M. genitalium IgG antibodies were associated with borderline ovarian tumors ().Conclusion: Chlamydial HSP60-1 IgG and M. genitalium IgG antibodies are in this study associated with epithelial ovarian tumors in some subsets, which support the hypothesis linking upper-genital tract infections and ovarian tumor development.
