A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.

What this trial studies

This study aims to assess the impact of frailty on survival outcomes in women with advanced ovarian cancer who are scheduled for cytoreductive surgery. It will evaluate three different frailty assessment tools to determine their predictive value for overall survival. Additionally, the study will explore the feasibility and safety of early reversal of temporary defunctioning stomas in select patients. The research will also investigate the effects of surgical extent and sarcopenia on postoperative outcomes and quality of life.
