Abstract

Red cell distribution width (RDW) measures red cells’ size variability. Metastatic ovarian cancer displays poor chemotherapy response without an effective prognostic predictor address. we investigated whether RDW correlates independently with survival outcomes in metastatic ovarian cancer treated by chemotherapy. Subsequently, it has been specified that RDW can be likewise utilized as a prognostic marker of metastatic ovarian cancer patients. Venous blood was collected from each patient in the morning. RDW was obtained directly by the hematology analyzer from 55 patients with metastatic ovarian cancer and were retrospectively analyzed between 2018 and 2022. Survival time was calculated from the date of chemotherapy initiation until the date of death.
