Researchers Find Possible Genetic Keys To Surviving Epithelial Ovarian Cancer
Moffitt Cancer CenterResearchers at Moffitt Cancer Center and colleagues from 11 other institutions in the United States and the United Kingdom have used two genome-wide association studies (GWAS) – one from the U.S. and one from the U.K. – to detect a novel set of genes found to be associated with epithelial ovarian cancer patient survival. The discovery could open the door to new therapies for treating epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC), the most lethal kind of gynecologic malignancy.
