Article Synopsis
  • The study analyzed uterine cancer mortality trends in the U.S. from 1969 to 2018, focusing on age and race/ethnicity factors.
  • Uterine cancer deaths initially decreased until 1997 but saw a rise from 1997 to 2018, impacting all age groups—particularly older individuals and non-Hispanic Black women, who faced significantly higher mortality rates.
  • In recent years, the most alarming increases in mortality rates were among young non-Hispanic Black and Hispanic women, suggesting urgent attention is needed for these demographic groups.

Objective: To determine the utility of a clinical calculator to redefine prognosis and need for chemotherapy among patients with early-stage high-risk epithelial ovarian cancer.

Methods: Data were abstracted for stage I-II, high-risk ovarian cancer from the National Cancer Database from years 2005 to 2015. Based on demographic, pathologic, surgical, and laboratory characteristics, a clinical score was developed using Cox regression.

Objective: The aim of this study was to investigate survival differences between equivalent residual disease [complete gross resection (CGR), minimal residual disease (MRD), suboptimal] at the time of primary debulking surgery (PDS) and interval debulking surgery (IDS).

Methods: The National Cancer Database was used to identify patients from 2010 to 2015 with stage IIIC/IV primary peritoneal or ovarian cancer who had residual disease recorded. Propensity score matching (PSM) was used to correct for differences in characteristics between the PDS and IDS groups.

Background: CAN-003 was a randomized, open-label, Phase 2 trial evaluating the safety, efficacy and immune outcomes of CVac, a mucin 1 targeted-dendritic cell (DC) treatment as a maintenance therapy to patients with epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC).

Methods: Patients (n = 56) in first (CR1) or second clinical remission (CR2) were randomized (1:1) to standard of care (SOC) observation or CVac maintenance treatment. Ten doses were administered over 56 weeks.
