The trajectory of conditional, recurrence-free, and long-term survival in a complete 10-year cohort of patients with advanced ovarian cancer.

ABSTRACT:

Background

The prognosis in advanced ovarian cancer is generally poor since the majority experience recurrence. Nevertheless, there is a chance of cure and very long-term survival may be achieved. However, traditional survival metrics do not account for the dynamic changes in prognosis over time. Our objectives were to examine conditional, very long-term and recurrence-free survival, in addition risk-factors for recurrence.

Methods

In this observational study, all patients diagnosed with advanced ovarian cancer between 2009 and 2018 in the Stockholm/Gotland region, Sweden, were identified in the Swedish Quality Registry of Gynecologic Cancer. Conditional and recurrence-free survival were estimated with the Kaplan Meier method. The association between predefined clinical fact
