An effective AKT inhibitor-PARP inhibitor combination therapy for recurrent ovarian cancer.

Apr 18, 2022

Although the use of PARP inhibitor has received considerable amount of attention in ovarian cancer, PARP inhibitor resistance still emerges with disease progression. PI3K/AKT pathway inhibitors have b...

Ovarian Cancer Ascites Inhibits Transcriptional Activation of NK Cells Partly through CA125.

Apr 11, 2022

Malignant ascites is a common clinical problem in ovarian cancer. NK cells are present in the ascites, but their antitumor activity is inhibited. The underlying mechanisms of the inhibition have yet t...
