| Abstract | Ovarian cancer is one of the most lethal gynecologic malignancies worldwide. Different from other solid tumors, ovarian cancer is an intra-abdominal tumor in which the presence of ascites enables metastatic dissemination and correlates with poor prognosis. Malignant ascites provide a key reservoir of growth factors and nutrients to augment ovarian cancer aggressiveness. Dr Chan will give a talk titled 'The tumor microenvironment on ovarian cancer progression and the potential target-based therapy' to share how all these factors are being studied to identify new principles leading to novel therapeutic avenues. |
