SINGAPORE - Researchers are testing a new treatment for ovarian cancer which may improve the quality of life for patients with recurrences or advanced stages of the disease. The new treatment could be an option for patients with ovarian cancer if chemotherapy fails. "There has been a new case of ovarian cancer almost every day here for the last five years," he noted. While not as generally well-known as breast cancer, ovarian cancer is the seventh most common cause of cancer-related deaths in women here, and is the second most common gynaecological cancer among women in Singapore. She was diagnosed with stage three ovarian cancer in 2009, which relapsed in 2013 and 2016.
