Abstract
The primary treatment of ovarian cancer consists in a complete surgical debulking followed by adjuvant chemotherapy combining platinum with taxanes. Despite this treatment, patient survival has remained stable over the last 20 years. Recently, advances in the sequence, regimens, and route of administration of treatment have enhanced effectiveness and reduced toxicity. Targeted anti-angiogenic therapy and recently PARP inhibitors are now complementing standard treatment and have improved patient progression-free survival. The development of immunotherapy, alone or in combination, brings new perspectives for the future treatment of ovarian cancer.
