Investigational therapies

• Epithelial ovarian cancer patients can have better prognosis and outcome with some under trial Medications that believed to be promising in the future
• Examples of the mechanism of action of these promising drugs are:
  • Targeting the angiogenesis
  • Targeting (inhibit) DNA repair
  • Targeting cell cycle
  • Targeting signaling pathways
  • Immunotherapeutic medications
