Journal ArticleDOI

The effect of debulking surgery after induction chemotherapy on the prognosis in advanced epithelial ovarian cancer. gynecological cancer cooperative group of the european organization for research and treatment of cancer

TL;DR: Debulking surgery significantly lengthened progression-free and overall survival and the risk of death was reduced by one third, after adjustment for a variety of prognostic factors.
Journal ArticleDOI

Early versus delayed treatment of relapsed ovarian cancer (MRC OV05/EORTC 55955): a randomised trial.

TL;DR: The findings showed no evidence of a survival benefit with early treatment of relapse on the basis of a raised CA125 concentration alone, and therefore the value of routine measurement of CA125 in the follow-up of patients with ovarian cancer who attain a complete response after first-line treatment is not proven.
Journal ArticleDOI

Molecular profiling of platinum resistant ovarian cancer

TL;DR: The findings of this study are the discovery of a gene signature that classifies the tumours, according to their response, and a 9‐gene set that determines resistance in an independent validation set that outperforms patient and tumour characteristics.
Journal ArticleDOI

Surgical Staging and Treatment of Early Ovarian Cancer: Long-term Analysis From a Randomized Trial

TL;DR: Support is found for most of the main conclusions of the original analysis, except that overall survival after optimal surgical staging was improved, even among patients who received adjuvant chemotherapy, and the benefit from adjUvant chemotherapy appeared to be restricted to patients with nonoptimal surgical staging.
