Author: KuipersT

Randomized Controlled TrialA clinical trial that randomly assigns participants to treatment and control groups to evaluate the effects of an intervention.
Clinical TrialA clinical trial is a planned study conducted on humans to evaluate the efficacy and safety of pharmaceuticals, medical devices, and treatment methods. It aims to explore the possibilities of new treatments and improve the health of patients.
Journal ArticleAn article published in an academic or professional journal that reports original research or scholarly analysis.

Overview

In 254 patients with ovarian carcinoma, irradiation of the pelvis and lumboaortic nodes resulted in a better 3-year survival rate compared to pelvic-only irradiation. Chemotherapy is preferred for stages III and IV due to a high death rate within 8 months, despite whole-abdomen irradiation. The main challenge in ovarian cancer remains late diagnosis, making reliable statistical conclusions difficult.
