Study of Tumor Tissue Samples From Patients Who Have Undergone Surgery for Advanced Stage III or Stage IV Ovarian Epithelial Cancer

Recruiting now

Conditions studied: Stage IIIA Ovarian Cancer, Stage IIIB Ovarian Cancer, Stage IIIC Ovarian Cancer, Stage IV Ovarian Cancer

In brief

This research study is looking at tumor tissue samples from patients who have undergone surgery for advanced stage III or stage IV ovarian epithelial cancer. Studying samples of tumor tissue from patients with cancer in the laboratory may help doctors learn how tumor infiltrating T cells can predict how patients will respond to treatment.
