Drs. Jamie Lesnock and Sara Bouberhan join the podcast to discuss the first ASCO guideline on systemic treatment for recurrent ovarian cancer. They provide a comprehensive overview of the evidence-based recommendations for patients with both platinum-sensitive and platinum-resistant or platinum-refractory disease. The discussion covers systemic therapy options, the role of maintenance therapy with agents like bevacizumab, and the nuanced recommendations for secondary cytoreductive surgery based on mixed clinical trial results. Drs. Lesnock and Bouberhan emphasize the importance of an individualized, multidisciplinary approach to care. As this is a living guideline, they also look ahead to emerging evidence that will shape future updates.
