Stage 1AdjuvantChemotherapy.Purpose of Investigation: The role of adjuvant chemotherapy in Stage 1 ovarian cancer is conflicting with no clear evidence to support adjuvant chemotherapy versus observation alone. The authors sought to establish the survival benefit of adjuvant chemotherapy in all Stage 1 ...
aOvarian cancer has one of the highest mortality rates of all gynecologic malignant tumors. More than 70% of patients are late-stage at diagnosis [1], and the 5-year survival rate is approximately 19~40% [2-3]. Locoregional recurrence and distant metastases are ominous events in patients wi...
In this case, the patient was diagnosed at a later age and her brain functionality is still intact, leading to the increased likelihood that she will have a positive prognosis despite this newly developed brain metastasis. 4. Conclusion The risk of metastatic brain lesions from ovarian cancer is...
However, there were no significant differences in age, BMI, FIGO stage, histology or postoperative adjuvant therapy among the four groups (P > 0.05). Table 1 The baseline characteristics of patients with early-stage cervical cancer Full size table Comparison of perioperative indices among the...
BackgroundIn cancer, phase 1 clinical trials on new drugs mostly involve patients with advanced disease that is unresponsive to standard therapy. The purpose of this study was to explore the difficult ethical problems related to patient information and motives for participation in such trials.MethodA...
This study was to determine age-specific impact of fertility preserving surgery on disease-specific survival in women with stage I borderline ovarian tumors (BOTs). Patients diagnosed during 1988–2000 were selected from The Surveillance, Epidemiology, a
In contrast, for the few patients (~15%) diagnosed with localized disease, the 5-year survival rate rises to about 25% and when PDAC is detected at Stage I, survival rates can be as high as 80%3. Likewise, ovarian cancer typically has few symptoms and is often undetected until it is...
Can stage 3 bladder cancer be cured? Can stage 4 bladder cancer be cured? Can stage 2 bladder cancer be cured? Is metastatic ovarian cancer curable? Is metastatic liver cancer curable? Can stage 1 stomach cancer be cured? Can stage 4 stomach cancer be cured?
Stage IV ovarian cancer is a tumor with a poor prognosis and lacks prognostic models. This study constructed and validated a model to predict overall survival (OS) in patients with newly diagnosed stage IV ovarian cancer. The data of this study were extracted from SEER database. Cox regression...
Epithelial ovarian cancer has the highest mortality of all gynaecological cancers [1]. The disease is often diagnosed at a late stage because symptoms only develop once the disease has spread throughout the abdominal cavity. However, even in case of advanced stage disease, long-term survival is ...
