Surgery for ovarian cancer and future health in young women
Part of Cancer, Hormones & metabolism, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This study looks at how surgery for ovarian cancer affects the future health of young women, especially things like fertility and hormone function. If you are a woman between 18 and 45 with localized ovarian cancer and you have had surgery, this study could help doctors understand what to expect and how to support you better.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 18 and 45 years old.
- Your ovarian cancer is localized (it has not spread widely in the abdomen).
- You had surgery to remove the cancer.
- You were not treated with chemotherapy only (surgery must have been part of your care).
- You are willing to allow researchers to look at your medical records.

This study follows women who carry gene mutations that increase ovarian cancer risk to understand how preventive surgery affects their health, quality of life, and peace of mind. Researchers will track your outcomes over 3 years to help inform future treatment decisions for others at similar risk.
This study uses lab testing to create a “map” of ovarian cancer cells one cell at a time, to better understand the disease. It likely helps researchers learn which cell types are involved, using samples collected around your surgery.
This laboratory study uses ovarian cancer fluid collected during surgery to test possible new treatments on cancer and immune cells. It may help researchers find better treatment options in ovarian cancer.
This study looks at women with advanced ovarian cancer to see if doctors can predict the type of tumor and how well surgery will go before the operation. It aims to help tailor treatment and improve outcomes.
This study looks back at records of people with advanced ovarian cancer to see if changing the order of their treatments might help them live longer. It focuses on those who had a certain type of surgery at a French hospital between 2010 and 2022.
This study collects tissue samples and medical information from people at higher risk for ovarian cancer or undergoing gynecologic surgery. Researchers use this data to develop better ways to detect and prevent ovarian cancer early.
