ABSTRACT
Among women, one of the leading causes of cancer-related mortality is ovarian cancer. The main course of treatment is surgery; adjuvant and systemic treatments may include immunotherapy, chemotherapy, and targeted therapy. Prior to beginning systemic treatment, it is advised that molecular markers such as homologous recombination status, microsatellite instability (MSI), and mutations in BRCA1 and BRCA2 be checked. Immune checkpoint inhibitors can be used in patients with deficient mismatch repair (dMMR) or microsatellite instability-high (MSI-H) ovarian cancer. In ongoing studies, new subgroups of patients will be identified where immunotherapy will be effective.
