Radiation Therapy in Ovarian Cancer: An Overview and Future Directions

M McCormack. Clin Oncol (R Coll Radiol). 2018 Aug.

Abstract

Clear cell cancer of the ovary is a rare and aggressive subtype. There is a general paucity of data from randomised trials to inform the most appropriate approach to adjuvant therapy. Retrospective data has highlighted an improvement in disease free survival with the addition of whole abdominal radiotherapy. This approach merits further exploration in a randomised clinical trial.

Keywords: Clear cell; ovary; radiotherapy.
