The Impact of Time Between Ovarian Cancer Treatments
Further research is necessary
Jung-Yun Lee, MD, is a corresponding author of the study and he stated, along with his teammates on the project, "our results demonstrate that a significant correlation may exist between survival outcomes and the time intervals between the completion of neoadjuvant chemotherapy and initiation of postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy, and that a delay in postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy initiation beyond 42 days after neoadjuvant chemotherapy may lead to worse survival outcomes. Further studies are warranted to validate our findings and to provide additional information on the relationships between neoadjuvant chemotherapy, the initiation of postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy, and the survival outcomes of the patients."
