A New Approach to Undetectable Ovarian Cancer | Targeted Oncology

Amir Jazaeri, MD, of MD Anderson Cancer Center, provides an in-depth perspective on the complex challenges of treating ovarian cancer. He explains that a majority of patients are diagnosed with advanced-stage disease, meaning the cancer has already spread extensively throughout the abdomen and possibly to other parts of the body. Despite this initial widespread nature, a combination of radical surgery and six cycles of platinum-based chemotherapy is often highly effective, leading to a state of remission where patients are considered cancer-free.
