Ovarian Cancer – Current Treatment – Current Treatment: Physician Insights – Ovarian Cancer (US)
Although chemotherapy has traditionally been the cornerstone of ovarian cancer treatment, angiogenesis and PARP inhibitors have revolutionized the treatment landscape, impacting prescribing decisions. The use of Lynparza (AstraZeneca / Merck & Co.), Zejula (GlaxoSmithKline), and Rubraca (Pharma&) as maintenance therapy across multiple lines and biomarker-defined patient populations is creating new sequencing dynamics. Elahere, set to be the standard of care for FRα-positive patients, is having an impact on the treatment algorithm for platinum-resistant disease.
