Genetic Mutation in Epithelial Ovarian Cancer

Overall Perspective on the Characteristics of Genetic Mutation in Chinese Patients of Epithelial Ovarian Cancer

Little is known about the characteristics of genetic mutation in a large multi-gene panel in epithelial ovarian cancer. This study is to explore the targeted genetic mutations via a multi-gene panel, which consists of more than 500 hundred genes. The mutation characteristics are to be revealed in single nucleotide variants, copy number variations, insertion-deletion variations, and genomic structural variations. The total mutation burden (TMB) will be calculated. The status of microsatellite instability, expression of PD-1 and PD-L1 antibodies are also tested. These findings will be studies in association with the patients' prognosis and sensitivity to platinum-based chemotherapy.
