ABSTRACT: Despite advances in cancer treatments, epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) remains the leading cause of death among gynecologic cancers. EOC is stratified into five main histopathological subtypes: high-grade serous carcinoma (HGSC), clear cell carcinoma (CCC), mucinous carcinoma (MC), endometrioid carcinoma (EC), and low-grade serous carcinoma (LGSC). However, personalized treatment strategies and reliable biomarkers for all histotypes remain elusive. Building on our previous work with early-stage EOC, we aim to explore diagnostic and prognostic biomarkers in advanced-stage EOC, updated to the latest World Health Organization classification guidelines from 2020, using comprehensive transcriptomic profiling from total RNA sequencing of 146 EOC patients. Differential expression analysis identified top 9 histotype-specific gene panels for HGSC, CCC, MC, and EC, including S100A1 (HGSC), ARID3A (CCC), LGALS4 (MC), and SCUBE2 (EC). We also identified gene candidates associated with overall survival and disease-specific survival, reflecting both favorable (e.g., OTOF, EEF1E1-BLOC1S5, and STAC3) and unfavorable (e.g., SMOC1, GDPGP1, EPRS1) clinical outcome. Additionally, enrichment analysis revealed tumor progression-related pathways unique to each histotype, offering insights into molecular mechanisms underlying disease progression and potential therapeutic targets. These findings provide valuable insights into the molecular landscape of advanced-stage EOC, paving the way for more effective diagnostic and prognostic tools across diverse histotypes.
