Abstract :The antigen secretion by ovarian cancer insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(CA-125); has been assessed using Radio Immune Assay insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(RIA); technique among a hundred ovarian cancer patients who received radiotherapy course as radical treatment. The study revealed that, the ovarian cancer commonly associated with the age groups of 30-40 years old taking a percent of 68 relative to other age groups and the antigen CA-125 does not has relation with aging. While the radiotherapy shows it is efficiency in management of ovarian cancer by reducing the antigen CA-125 level from 134 ± 13.3 U/ml to 5.5 ± 2.1 U/ml relative to normal level of CA-125 insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(35 U/ml);. Also there is significant relationship between the cancer stage and the level of antigen CA-125 insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(R2=0.98);.Keywords : Ovarian cancer, Radiation therapy and tumor maker, Radioimmuneassay
