Summary

This trial investigates whether giving back a patient's own blood stem cells after chemotherapy can help their bone marrow recover faster. The study includes women aged 18–60 with recurrent or metastatic ovarian cancer who are scheduled for chemotherapy. The goal is to reduce severe low white blood cell counts and other blood-related side effects, making treatment safer and more manageable.
