About this trial

The purpose of this study is to answer the fundamental question 'The Optimal Timing of Surgery' in advanced ovarian cancer patients with different tumor burden, and to perform translational study.

Eligibility criteria

This trial does not accept healthy volunteers

Qualifiers

Females aged ≥ 18 years.

the patient has a pelvic mass, and

omental cake or other metastasis larger than 2 cm in the upper abdomen, or pathologic confirmed extra-abdominal metastasis (FIGO IV), and

preoperative CA125/CEA ratio > 25. If CA125/CEA ratio ≤ 25, imaging or endoscopy is obligatory to exclude a primary gastric, colon, or breast carcinoma.

Disqualifiers

Non-epithelial ovarian malignancies and borderline tumors.

Low grade ovarian cancer.

Mucinous ovarian cancer.

cPCI score > 8.

Trial design

Design model

Parallel

Treatments tested in this trial

  • Primary debulking surgery

    Procedure/Surgery

    Primary debulking surgery with a maximum cytoreduction, then followed by 6 cycles of Paclitaxel 175mg/m2 or Docetaxel 60-75 mg/m2 plus Carboplatin AUC (area under the curve) 5.

  • Neoadjuvant chemotherapy

    Procedure/Surgery

    3 cycles of Paclitaxel 175mg/m2 or Docetaxel 60-75 mg/m2 plus Carboplatin AUC (area under the curve) 5, Interval debulking surgery with a maximal cytoreduction of complete gross resection, then followed by another 3 cycles of chemotherapy.

  • PARPi

    Drug

    For patients with gBRCA/sBRCA mutation and CR/PR after first-line chemotherapy, maintenance therapy of PARP inhibitors.
