Timing of surgery after chemo for advanced ovarian cancer
Part of Cancer, Hormones & metabolism, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This trial tests whether waiting longer between chemotherapy and surgery affects outcomes for advanced ovarian cancer. It is for women who have had three cycles of chemo and whose disease can be removed surgically.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are a woman aged 18 to 75.
- You have advanced high-grade serous ovarian, fallopian tube, or primary peritoneal cancer that cannot be fully removed with surgery upfront.
- You have had three cycles of chemotherapy and your disease can be surgically removed as seen by laparoscopic evaluation.
- You are in good general health (ECOG performance status 0 or 1) and your organs are working well enough for surgery.
- You have no other active cancer or serious medical conditions like recent stroke or uncontrolled illness.

This trial compares two timing options for surgery after chemotherapy in advanced ovarian cancer. The goal is to see if delaying surgery based on a blood test (KELIM) leads to better outcomes.
This study looks at whether the timing of surgery after chemotherapy can be personalized for advanced ovarian cancer. It uses a blood test (CA125) to help decide the best time for surgery, aiming to improve outcomes.
This trial is for women with advanced ovarian cancer that cannot be removed completely at first. It tests if having surgery after three rounds of chemotherapy is beneficial.
This trial checks if adjusting the timing of surgery (interval debulking surgery) after chemotherapy can improve outcomes for people with advanced ovarian cancer. It's for those who cannot have surgery right away and will receive chemotherapy first.
This Phase 3 trial tests whether patients with advanced ovarian, fallopian tube, or primary peritoneal cancer do better with surgery first versus chemotherapy first. It also groups people based on how extensive the cancer is to choose the best approach.
This trial tests if laparoscopic surgery after 3-4 cycles of chemotherapy can help people with advanced epithelial ovarian cancer. It's for those whose tumors have shrunk enough after chemo and who are healthy enough for surgery.
