These proteins were tested as single or composite biomarker for predicting Good-responders from Limited-responders with or without inclusion of CA 19-9. PZ is a vitamin K-dependent glycoprotein, which regulates blood coagulation. SHBG is a glycoprotein that binds hormones, which is an index of testosterone level and an inflammatory marker. VWF is a blood glycoprotein maintaining hemostasis, which also acts in inflammation and antitumor
