Summary

This study is testing a device called a Drug Response Predictor (DRP) that uses a sample of a patient's tumor to see if it will respond to certain cancer drugs. The trial involves 60 people with advanced ovarian cancer that has stopped responding to platinum chemotherapy. The goal is to see if the DRP can guide future treatment choices and also check if it correctly predicts past drug responses.
