Objective: We sought to determine the safety and efficacy of the oral progesterone antagonist onapristone in combination with anastrozole in patients with recurrent progesterone receptor-positive adult-type granulosa cell tumor of the ovary.

Methods: This was a single-institution phase II study of patients with progesterone receptor-positive adult-type granulosa cell tumor who received at least 1 prior line of chemotherapy. Patients were enrolled from November 2021 to August 2022 and tissue was evaluated for progesterone receptor status via immunohistochemistry.

Article Synopsis
  • Anlotinib has demonstrated positive effects in treating platinum-resistant ovarian cancer, but its role as a maintenance therapy after initial treatment was unclear.
  • In a phase II clinical trial with 24 patients, those who received anlotinib after responding to chemotherapy had a median progression-free survival of 15.8 months and an overall survival of 43.8 months.
  • The study indicated that anlotinib is a safe and effective option for maintenance therapy, showing promise in extending survival for patients with advanced ovarian cancer.

This study aimed to investigate the changes induced by the culture system and the effect of ascorbic acid and resveratrol on collagen fibers, stromal cells, follicle growth and survival, as well as antioxidant enzyme activity in cultured bovine ovarian tissues. In experiment 1, bovine ovarian fragments were cultured in α-minimum essential medium (α-MEM) for 6 days. Before and after culturing, the fragments were fixed and processed to assess follicular morphology and diameters, stromal cell survival, collagen fibers, and glycosaminoglycans (GAGs).
