Summary
Ascites samples from women undergoing surgery for ovarian cancer will be collected for use in translational research.
Detailed description
The purpose of this study is to collect ascites fluid obtained from ovarian cancer patients during cytoreductive surgery or paracentesis at the University of New Mexico Hospital or Cancer Center. Cancer cells and immune cells from the ascites fluid will be used to test novel immunotherapies for ovarian cancer treatment and to establish patient derived xenograft models to perform preclinical testing on a cancer cell population that better models the heterogeneity in patient disease
