Controversy Remains on Addition of VEGF Inhibition Before Interval Debulking in Ovarian Cancer
The addition of bevacizumab to neoadjuvant platinum-based chemotherapy led to a significantly increased rate of complete resection at interval debulking in advanced ovarian cancer.
Dr. Jasgit Sachdev on Antibody-Drug Conjugate PF-06647020 in Ovarian Cancer
October 18th 2016Jasgit Sachdev, MD, clinical associate professor at Translational Genomics Research Institute, discusses a phase I study of PF-06647020, an antibody-drug conjugate targeting protein tyrosine kinase 7 (PTK7) in patients with platinum-resistant ovarian cancer.
Low Response Rates Halt First Trial of Abiraterone in Ovarian Cancer
The first trial evaluating the efficacy of abiraterone in patients with ovarian cancer has been halted early due to low response, according to results from the CORAL phase II trial, which were presented at the European Society for Medical Oncology Congress.
Counting to 125: The Painstaking Journey to a Landmark Ovarian Cancer Biomarker
Robert C. Bast Jr, MD, who led the development of the first clinically relevant blood-based biomarker for ovarian cancer, was honored in the Gynecologic Malignancies category with a 2015 Giants of Cancer Care® award, a program that OncLive launched to recognize leaders in the field.
Dr. Markman on Important Factors of BSO in Ovarian Cancer

Tesaro Initiates Rolling Submission for Niraparib in Ovarian Cancer
The FDA has granted a fast track designation to niraparib, allowing the initiation of a rolling submission of data for potential approval for the PARP inhibitor as a treatment for women with recurrent platinum-sensitive ovarian, fallopian tube, or primary peritoneal cancer.
Benefit of Maintenance Olaparib in Patients With Ovarian Cancer
August 25th 2016Charlie Gourley, PhD, MBChB, chair and honorary consultant in Medical Oncology at Edinburgh Cancer Research Centre in the United Kingdom, discusses a study comparing the use of olaparib (Lynparza) after chemotherapy with placebo after chemotherapy in patients with platinum-sensitive ovarian cancer.
Genome Sequencing Is Mapping a Path to Personalized Treatment for Ovarian Cancer
August 17th 2016Genome sequencing studies have uncovered an array of distinct genomic drivers underlying various ovarian cancer subtypes. If researchers can capitalize on these discoveries, it may offer a path to more individualized and effective treatment options.
What Is a Patient Who Refuses Chemotherapy Really Saying?
August 15th 2016Although chemotherapy has changed dramatically since it was introduced, platinum-containing combinations remain standard in ovarian cancer. Often, the established regimen can be modified for patients who quite justifiably may fear the toxicities of platinum agents.
"Stemness" Inhibitor Demonstrates Activity in Patients With Advanced Ovarian Cancer
August 12th 2016Results of an early phase trial show that, for heavily pretreated patients with platinum-resistant ovarian cancer, a first-in-class cancer "stemness" inhibitor that targets the STAT3 pathway was found to demonstrate antitumor activity—and was also found to be well tolerated when combined with paclitaxel.
