Upon completion of this activity, participants should be able to:

  • List the range of current treatment options for recurrent, platinum-resistant ovarian cancer
  • Describe recent clinical trials evaluating single-agent and combination regimens for recurrent, platinum-resistant ovarian cancer
  • Discuss the rationale for use of novel agents in combination with standard chemotherapeutic agents in patients with recurrent ovarian cancer
