abstract: The association between quality of life domains and overall survival in ovarian cancer patients during adjuvant chemotherapy: patients from GOG 172 trial



Highlights

► Physical QOL is associated with OS in ovarian cancer patients receiving adjuvant chemotherapy.
► Poor physical well-being at baseline is associated with risk of death in patients undergoing adjuvant chemotherapy for advanced ovarian cancer.
► Identifying modifiable characteristics that are associated with survival offers the potential for providing support that may improve outcomes.
