About 80 participants will be randomly assigned to either have surgery or not. The goal is to see if surgery can delay the cancer from coming back or improve survival.
What this could mean

Secondary cytoreductive surgery
What this could lead to
If successful, this could show that surgery after chemotherapy helps people with recurrent ovarian cancer live longer without the disease getting worse.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early-phase trial (80 people), so results may not apply to everyone. Surgery carries risks like infection or complications, and it may not improve survival.
