Introduction

When a mass of tissue is found next to the uterus (adnexal mass) it usually isn’t cancer. The

OVA1, ROMA, and Overa tests are a combination of several lab tests that some doctors order to

try to see how likely it is that a mass is cancer. Other reasons doctors may order these tests are

to try to decide if a patient should be referred to a gynecological oncologist (a doctor who

specializes in women’s cancers), to try to screen for ovarian cancer, to try to determine if

previous surgery was successful in removing ovarian cancer, or to try to find out if ovarian

cancer has come back.

The OVA1, ROMA, and Overa tests are still being studied. There is little evidence in published

medical studies to show how these tests will lead to improved diagnoses or patient care. There

are no studies that show how information from these tests will impact health outcomes. These

tests are investigational (unproven) for all uses.

Note: The Introduction section is for your general knowledge and is not to be taken as policy coverage criteria. The

rest of the policy uses specific words and concepts familiar to medical professionals. It is intended for

providers. A provider can be a person, such as a doctor, nurse, psychologist, or dentist. A provider also can

be a place where medical care is given, like a hospital, clinic, or lab. This policy informs them about when a

service may be covered.

Related Information

OVA1, Overa, and ROMA tests are combinations of several separate lab tests and involve

proprietary algorithms for determining risk (ie, what CPT codes call multianalyte assays with

algorithmic analyses [MAAAs]).

Evidence Review

Description

A variety of serum biomarkers have been studied for their association with ovarian cancer. Of

particular interest have been tests that integrate results from multiple analytes into a risk score

to predict the presence of disease. Three tests based on this principle, OVA1, Overa (the second-

generation OVA1 test), and ROMA have been cleared by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration.

The intended use of OVA1 and Overa is to use them as an aid to further assess whether

malignancy is present, even when the physician’s independent clinical and radiologic evaluation

does not indicate malignancy. The intended use of ROMA is to use it as an aid, in conjunction

with clinical assessment, to assess whether a premenopausal or a postmenopausal woman who

presents with an ovarian adnexal mass is at high likelihood or low likelihood of finding

malignancy on surgery.

Background

Epithelial Ovarian Cancer

The term epithelial ovarian cancer collectively includes high-grade serous epithelial ovarian,

fallopian tubal, and peritoneal carcinomas due to their shared pathogenesis, clinical

Page | 4 of 13 ∞

presentation, and treatment. We use epithelial ovarian cancer to refer to this group of

malignancies in the discussion that follows. There is currently no serum biomarker that can

distinguish between these types of carcinoma. An estimated 22,440 women in the United States

were diagnosed in 2017 with ovarian cancer, and approximately 14,080 will die of the disease.1

The mortality rate depends on 3 variables:

1. Patient characteristics

2. Tumor biology (grade, stage, type)

3. Treatment quality (nature of staging, surgery, and chemotherapy used)2

In particular, comprehensive staging and completeness of tumor resection appear to have a

positive impact on patient outcome.

In 1997, the Society of Surgical Oncology recommended ovarian cancer surgery and follow-up

treatment be performed by physicians with ovarian cancer expertise.3 Numerous articles have

been published on the application of this recommendation examining long-term and short-term

outcomes, as well as process measures (eg, types of treatment such as complete staging or

tumor debulking). At least 2 meta-analyses have concluded that outcomes are improved when

patients with ovarian cancer are treated by gynecologic oncologists.4,5 The available data are

most convincing for patients with advanced-stage disease.

Adult women presenting with an adnexal mass have an estimated 68% likelihood of having a

benign lesion.6 About 6% of women with masses have borderline tumors, 22% possess invasive

malignant lesions, and 3% have metastatic disease. Surgery is the only way to diagnose ovarian

cancer; this is because biopsy of an ovary with suspected ovarian cancer is usually not

performed due to the risk of spreading cancer cells. Most clinicians agree that women with

masses that have a high likelihood of malignancy should undergo surgical staging by a

gynecologic oncologist. However, women with clearly benign masses do not require a referral to

see a specialist. Therefore, criteria and tests that help differentiate benign from malignant pelvic

masses are desirable.

In 2005, the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists and the Society of

Gynecologic Oncologists jointly released referral guidelines that addressed criteria for referring

women with pelvic masses that are suspicious for ovarian cancer to gynecologic oncologists.7

Separate criteria were developed for premenopausal and postmenopausal women. In

premenopausal women, referral criteria included at least one of the following: elevated cancer

antigen 125 (CA 125; >200 U/mL), ascites, evidence of abdominal or distant metastasis, or a

positive family history. The referral criteria for postmenopausal women were similar, except that

Page | 5 of 13 ∞

a lower threshold for an elevated CA 125 test was used (35 U/mL); moreover, a nodular or fixed

pelvic mass was an added criterion.

Three multimarker serum-based tests specific to ovarian cancer have been cleared by the Food

and Drug Administration (FDA) with the intended use of triaging patients with adnexal masses

(see Regulatory Status). They are summarized in Table 1. The proposed use of the tests is to

identify women with a substantial likelihood of malignant disease who may benefit from referral

to a gynecologic oncology specialist. Patients with positive results may be considered

candidates for referral to a gynecologic oncologist for treatment. The tests have been developed

and evaluated only in patients with adnexal masses and planned surgeries. Other potential uses,

such as selecting patients to have surgery, screening asymptomatic patients, and monitoring

treatment, have not been investigated. Furthermore, the tests are not intended to be used as

stand-alone tests, but in conjunction with clinical assessment.

Other multimarker panels and longitudinal screening algorithms are under development;

however, these are not yet commercially available.8,9

Clinical Input Received from Physician Specialty Societies and Academic

Medical Centers

While the various physician specialty societies and academic medical centers may collaborate

with and make recommendations during this process, through the provision of appropriate

reviewers, input received does not represent an endorsement or position statement by the

physician specialty societies or academic medical centers, unless otherwise noted.

In response to requests, input was received while this policy was under review in 2012. Input was

mixed in support of these tests as a tool for triaging patients with an adnexal mass. Reviewers

agreed that the evidence was insufficient to determine the impact of these tests on referral

patterns. For indications other than triaging patients with an adnexal mass, there was a lack of

support for use of these tests.

Practice Guidelines and Position Statements

American Congress of Obstetricians and Gynecologists

The American Congress of Obstetricians and Gynecologists (ACOG) addressed the use of the

OVA1 test in its 2011 guidelines on the role of the obstetrician-gynecologist in the early

detection of epithelial ovarian cancer29, and these guidelines were confirmed in 2017.30 The

Society for Gynecologic Oncology (2013) endorsed these ACOG guidelines.31 This ACOG

document included the following comments, which were not specific guidelines about the use of

the test:

• The OVA1 test “appears to improve the predictability of ovarian cancer in women with pelvic

masses.”

• “This is not a screening test, but it may be useful for evaluating women with a pelvic mass.”

• “Clinical utility is not yet established.”

Further, in 2016, an ACOG Practice Bulletin addressed the evaluation and management of

adnexal masses makes a level B recommendation (based on limited or inconsistent scientific

evidence) that consultation with or referral to a gynecologic oncologist is recommended for

premenopausal or postmenopausal with an elevated score on a formal risk assessment test such

as the multivariate index assay, risk of malignancy index, or the Risk of Ovarian Malignancy

Algorithm, or one of the ultrasound-based scoring systems from the International Ovarian

Tumor Analysis group.31

National Institute for Health and Care Excellence

The National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (2011) issued guidance on the

identification and management of ovarian cancer.32 This guidance is currently being updated

and is under review.

National Comprehensive Cancer Network

The National Comprehensive Cancer Network (NCCN) guidelines on ovarian cancer (v.2.2019)

include the following statement:33

It has been suggested that specific biomarkers (serum HE4 [human epididymis

secretory protein 4] and CA-125 [cancer antigen 125]) along with an algorithm (Risk

of Ovarian Malignancy Algorithm [ROMA]) may be useful for determining whether a

pelvic mass is malignant or benign. The FDA [Food and Drug Administration] has

approved the use of HE4 and CA-125 for estimating the risk of ovarian cancer in

women with a pelvic mass. Currently, the NCCN Panel does not recommend the use

of these biomarkers for determining the status of an undiagnosed pelvic mass.

Regarding the OVA1 test, NCCN guidelines state:

The OVA1 test uses 5 markers (including transthyretin, apolipoprotein A1, transferrin,

beta-2 microglobulin, and CA-125) to assess who should undergo surgery by an

experienced gynecologic oncologist and who can have surgery in the community….

Based on data documenting an increased survival, NCCN Guidelines Panel Members

recommend that all patients should undergo surgery by an experienced gynecologic

oncologist (category 1).

U.S. Preventive Services Task Force Recommendations

The U.S. Preventive Services Task Force (2012) recommended against screening women for

ovarian cancer (D recommendation). This recommendation was confirmed in their 2018

update.34 The Task Force has not addressed multimarker serum testing related to ovarian cancer.

Medicare National Coverage

There is no national coverage determination.

Regulatory Status

In July 2009, the OVA1® test (Aspira Labs [Austin, TX]) was cleared for marketing by the FDA

through the 510(k) process. OVA1® was designed as a tool to further assess the likelihood that

malignancy is present when the physician’s independent clinical and radiological evaluation

does not indicate malignancy.

In September 2011, the Risk of Ovarian Malignancy Algorithm (ROMA™ test; Fujirebio

Diagnostics [Sequin, TX]) was cleared for marketing by the FDA through the 510(k) process. The

intended use of ROMA™ is as an aid, in conjunction with clinical assessment, in assessing

whether a premenopausal or postmenopausal woman who presents with an ovarian adnexal

mass is at high or low risk of having malignancy at surgery.

In March 2016, a second-generation test called Overa™ (also referred to as next-generation

OVA1®), in which 2 of the 5 biomarkers in OVA1® are replaced with human epididymis

secretory protein 4and follicle-stimulating hormone, was cleared for marketing by the FDA

through the 510(k) process. Similar to OVA1®, Overa™ generates a low or high risk of

malignancy on a scale from 0 to 10.

Black Box Warning

In December 2011, the FDA amended its regulation for classifying ovarian adnexal mass

assessment score test systems. The change required that off-label risks be highlighted using a

black box warning. The warning is intended to mitigate the risk to health associated with off-

label use as a screening test, stand-alone diagnostic test, or as a test to determine whether or

not to proceed with surgery. Considering the history and currently unmet medical needs for

ovarian cancer testing, the FDA concluded that there is a risk of off-label use of this device.10 To

address this risk, the FDA requires that manufacturers provide notice concerning the risks of off-

label uses in the labeling, advertising, and promotional material of ovarian adnexal mass

assessment score test systems. Manufacturers must address the following risks:

• Women without adnexal pelvic masses (ie, for cancer “screening”) are not part of the

intended use population for the ovarian adnexal mass assessment score test systems. Public

Page | 10 of 13 ∞

health risks associated with false-positive results for ovarian cancer screening tests are well

described in the medical literature and include morbidity or mortality associated with

unneeded testing and surgery. The risk from false-negative screening results also includes

morbidity and mortality due to failure to detect and treat ovarian malignancy.

• Analogous risks, adjusted for prevalence and types of disease, arise if test results are used to

determine the need for surgery in patients who are known to have ovarian adnexal masses.

• If used outside the “OR” rule that is described in this special control guidance, results from

ovarian adnexal mass assessment score test systems pose a risk for morbidity and mortality

due to nonreferral for oncologic evaluation and treatment.
