Core Tip

Core Tip: Although the prognosis of low grade serous carcinoma of the ovary (LGSOC) is relatively good, over 80% of patients still experience disease recurrence. In most cases, these patients are relatively young and have the potential to receive active treatment and achieve a longer survival period. The treatment methods for LGSOC recurrence include re-tumor reduction surgery, chemotherapy, targeted therapy, hormone therapy and clinical trials. Currently, a large amount of research focuses on gene testing and targeted therapy. I hope that the progress of genome research and targeted therapy can change the therapeutic prospects of LGSOC and bring better therapeutic effects to patients with this disease.
