Brief Summary
|
Ovarian cancer is the second most common gynceological malignancy world wide. In India it is the third most common cancer among women. Most of the women present at an advanced stage leading to higher morbidity and moratality. The current standard treatment to advanced epitehlial ovarian cancer is primary surgery followed by 6 cycles of platinum based adjuvant chemotherapy. There is no level 1 evidence to this approach. An alternate has been recently proposed and tested by some authors. This included initial 3 cycles of platinum based chemotherapy followed by surgery and later additional 3 cycles of chemotherapy. In this study we are comparing these two approaches in a randomized manner. |
