Abstract

In high-grade serous or endometrioid ovarian cancers (HGOC), PARPi demonstrated benefit as maintenance therapy in relapsing BRCA-mutated and non-mutated tumors. Ovarian cancer is the leading cause of death among all gynaecological cancers in developed countries, with most patients presenting with advanced stage tumours, as defined by the spread of the disease outside the pelvis (FIGO stage III and IV). For advanced disease, complete resection of all macroscopic disease has been shown to be the single most important independent prognostic factor in advanced EOC and careful evaluation of patients prior to surgery is essential to defining the management plan.
