Study Looking at Biomarkers in Ovarian Cancer
- Conditions
- Gynecologic Cancer

- Procedure: Tumour tissue collectionProcedure: Blood sample collectionProcedure: Ascites CollectionProcedure: Fluid Collection
- Registration Number
- NCT03419689
- Lead Sponsor
- University Health Network, Toronto
- Brief Summary
This is a sample study that will collect biological samples (blood, tumor tissue, ascites, and/or other fluids) from gynecological cancer patients for biomarker research. In addition, the results of the testing done on the samples will be given to the participant's treating physician who may use the information to guide treatment decisions.
