Autoantibodies (AAb) directed against the nuclear phosphoprotein p53 can be detected in patients with various forms of cancer. The objective was to determine the prevalence of p53 AAb at the time of diagnosis in ovarian cancer patients and to correlate the presence of p53 AAb with clinicopathological parameters. Sera of 83 patients were analyzed by an ELISA using p53 expressed from a human wild-type cDNA. p53 AAb were detectable at all stages. The overall prevalence was 46%. p53 AAb were more frequent in patients with higher age (p = 0.014), postmenopausal status (p = 0.050), or advanced tumor stage (p = 0.046). p53 AAb positivity was related to the proportion of cells positive in immunohistochemistry but not with the staining intensity. In bivariate analysis, patients with p53 AAb had a 1.96-fold risk for relapse (95% confidence interval 1.02-3.78).
