Real-world treatment patterns and outcomes in platinum-sensitive recurrent high-grade serous ovarian cancer patients

Aim: To describe the overall cancer-related healthcare utilization patterns, treatment patterns and outcomes in women diagnosed with platinum-sensitive recurrent high-grade serous ovarian cancer. Patients & methods: Subanalysis of the Spanish sample of a retrospective, noninterventional, multinational, observational study. Results:BRCA-mutated patients had better outcomes in terms of progression-free survival and overall survival than patients who were BRCA wild-type. It was observed that patients' treatment outcomes after the first recurrence progressively worsened as the patient underwent subsequent chemotherapy lines. Healthcare resource utilization when accounting for the follow-up time did not substantially differ between BRCA1/2-mutated and BRCA wild-type patients. Conclusion:BRCA1/2 mutation carriers have better treatment outcomes, including longer survival, without a negative impact on the use of healthcare resources.
