Treatment of Ovarian Cancer in Low-Grade Serous Carcinoma

Clinical Scenario

Low-grade serous carcinoma of the ovary (LGSOC) is a distinct histological subtype of epithelial ovarian cancer. This protocol addresses recurrence therapy in patients with confirmed LGSOC, where the treatment approach differs meaningfully from high-grade serous disease.

Specific Condition

The protocol is defined for ovarian cancer with low-grade serous carcinoma histology. Confirmation of this subtype is central to appropriate therapy selection at recurrence.

Treatment Approach

Recurrence management centres on hormonal therapy, with the specific agent guided by prior treatment history. Depending on tumour molecular characteristics, targeted therapy is also a recognised option in this setting. Full regimen details, agent selection criteria, sequencing, and surgical considerations are available in the complete protocol ↓
