- No reliable routine screening exists; symptoms lasting two to three weeks or longer, or worsening, should be evaluated.
- Up to 25 percent of ovarian cancers are linked to inherited mutations; a GSK-commissioned survey found 34 percent had never undergone genetic testing.
- Diagnosis typically combines imaging, blood tests, a pelvic examination and biopsy; tumor biology shapes individualized treatment.
- Maintenance therapy has become standard and uses targeted medicines intended to prolong remission or slow disease progression.
The vast majority of cases are caught in the more advanced stages.— Dr. Leslie Randall, MD, Gynecologic Oncology Service Line and Clinical Research Director at the Inova Schar Cancer Institute, Fairfax, Virginia
