Epithelial ovarian cancer [PDF]
Epithelial ovarian cancer generally presents at an advanced stage and is the most common cause of gynaecological cancer death. Treatment requires expert multidisciplinary care. Population-based screening has been ineffective, but new approaches for early diagnosis and prevention that leverage molecular genomics are in development.

Autophagy gene haploinsufficiency drives chromosome instability, increases migration, and promotes early ovarian tumors. [PDF]
Autophagy, particularly with BECN1, has paradoxically been highlighted as tumor promoting in Ras-driven cancers, but potentially tumor suppressing in breast and ovarian cancers.

Molecular mechanisms of platinum-based chemotherapy resistance in ovarian cancer
Cisplatin is one of the most effective chemotherapy drugs for ovarian cancer, but resistance is common. The initial response to platinum-based chemotherapy is as high as 80%, but in most advanced patients, final relapse and death are caused by acquired ...

Molecular Biomarkers for the Early Detection of Ovarian Cancer
Ovarian cancer is the deadliest gynecological cancer, leading to over 152,000 deaths each year. A late diagnosis is the primary factor causing a poor prognosis of ovarian cancer and often occurs due to a lack of specific symptoms and effective biomarkers

Subtypes of Ovarian Cancer and Ovarian Cancer Screening [PDF]
Ovarian cancer is the foremost cause of gynecological cancer death in the developed world, as it is usually diagnosed at an advanced stage. In this paper we discuss current issues, the efficacy and problems associated with ovarian cancer screening, and compare the characteristics of ovarian cancer subtypes. There are two types of ovarian cancer: Type I
