Name Time Method Overall survival defined as the interval between date of diagnosis to the date of death[5 years post standard treatment commencement]
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Progression-free survival defined as the earliest disease progression per clinical progression, RECIST, CA-125 progression, or death.
