Key inclusion & exclusion criteria

Inclusion Criteria:

- All patients > 18 years of age undergoing surgery for presumed ovarian, fallopian
tube, or primary peritoneal cancer.

- Patients must be medically and physically able to undergo general anesthesia and
possible tumor debulking.

- Patients must read and sign informed consent form after the nature of the study has
been fully explained.

Exclusion Criteria:

- Presence of clinically significant disease, allergy, or other disorder precluding the

Age minimum: 18 Years
Age maximum: N/A
Gender: Female
Health Condition(s) or Problem(s) studied
Ovarian Cancer
Intervention(s)
Other: CA 125 and CT scan
Primary Outcome(s)
To assess the efficacy of preoperative CT scan of the abdomen and pelvis in predicting optimal primary cytoreduction in advanced ovarian cancer. [Time Frame: 7 - 35 days postop stage 3 or 4 disease CTscan have]
Secondary Outcome(s)
To compare the intraoperative assessment of residual disease to that found on postoperative CT scan of the abdomen and pelvis, if scans are available for review. [Time Frame: 3 years]
To determine the ability of preoperative CT scan of the abdomen and pelvis to provide useful information that will impact on surgical planning. [Time Frame: 3 years]
To develop preoperative CT scan of the abdomen and pelvis and/or tumor marker criteria for ovarian cancer non-resectability (sub-optimal tumor cytoreduction). [Time Frame: 3 years]
To evaluate the ability of preoperative serum CA-125 to predict optimal primary cytoreduction of advanced ovarian cancer. [Time Frame: Within 14 days prior to surgery]
