MARKERS FOR PREDICTING OVARIAN CANCER RECURRENCE (Review of literature)

Аннотация

The research literature sources for the last ten years can be found in the PubMed and E-library databases. Combinations of text terms "ovarian neoplasm", "ovarian cancer", "ovarian malignancy", "recurrence" and "ovarian biomarkers" were used to search for studies. Publication reviews on the role of biomarkers in ovarian cancer recurrence were one of the selection criteria for this narrative review. Although several biomarkers of response to various agents in ovarian cancer have been identified in the literature, most lack high-level evidence. This report highlights the unmet need for predictive identification and validation of biomarkers to guide treatment and future trial design in ovarian cancer.
