Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
In the past decade, there has been significant progress in the evaluation and treatment of advanced ovarian cancer in addition to a combination of debulking surgery and systemic chemotherapy, such as homologous recombination deficiency evaluation, hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy, anti-vascular endothelial growth factor therapy, poly ADP-ribose polymerase inhibitor, and even immune checkpoint inhibitor. However, the prognosis of a significant portion of patients with advanced ovarian cancer remains poor. Thus, intensive study is needed to determine the optimal evaluation and treatment strategies.
We welcome submissions in advanced or recurrent ovarian cancer that cover any relevant topic in the areas of risk assessment and stratification, and medical and surgical management strategies.
Prof. Sheng-Mou Hsiao
