Purpose
RATIONALE: Studying samples of tumor tissue from patients with cancer in the laboratory may help doctors learn how tumor infiltrating T cells can predict how patients will respond to treatment.
PURPOSE: This research study is looking at tumor tissue samples from patients who have undergone surgery for advanced stage III or stage IV ovarian epithelial cancer.

| Official Title: | Validation Of Tumor-Infiltrating T-Cells As A Biomarker For Advanced Epithelial Ovarian Cancer |
- Ability of intratumoral tumor-infiltrating T lymphocytes (TILs) to predict progression-free survival of patients with suboptimally debulked disease or optimally debulked disease [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
- Ability of intratumoral TILs to predict overall survival of these 2 groups of patients [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
| Estimated Enrollment: | 174 |
OBJECTIVES:
Primary
- To validate the ability of intratumoral tumor-infiltrating T lymphocytes (TILs) to predict progression-free survival (PFS) in patients with suboptimally debulked advanced stage III or IV ovarian epithelial cancer.
- To validate the ability of intratumoral TILs to predict PFS in patients with optimally debulked disease.
Secondary
- To validate the ability of intratumoral TILs to predict overall survival of patients with suboptimally debulked disease.
- To validate the ability of intratumoral TILs to predict overall survival of patients with optimally debulked disease.
OUTLINE: Patients are stratified according to status of debulked disease (suboptimal vs optimal).
Previously collected tumor tissue samples are analyzed for tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TIL) via immunohistochemistry and double immunofluorescence assays using standard immunostaining.
