Timing is everything: when should surgery follow chemo for ovarian cancer?

NCT ID NCT03579394

Summary

This study compared whether performing surgery after 3 rounds of chemotherapy or after 6 rounds works better for women with advanced ovarian cancer who weren't suitable for immediate surgery. Researchers wanted to see which timing led to longer periods without cancer returning and better quality of life. The trial involved 211 participants across multiple medical centers who were randomly assigned to one of the two treatment schedules.
