Background: Prognostic factors for ovarian cancer include residual tumor and chemotherapy response, but these parameters are not sufficient to predict ovarian cancer prognoses. A new approach such as mGPS that use a combination of CRP and albumin can be used to assess an inflammatory response. With mGPS, an elevated CRP value and hypoalbuminemia are poor prognosis. Objective: To investigate the effect of mGPS on histopathologic staging and grading of ovarian cancer.Method: The study design was a cross sectional study. The population of this study were patients with suspected ovarian cancer who underwent laparotomy surgical staging at RSUP Dr. Sardjito. The samples were patients with suspected ovarian cancer that have examined the hs-CRP level and albumin level preoperative,then underwent laparotomy surgical staging with histopathological results epithelial ovarian cancer. Data were analyzed using Chi Square test and logistic regression.Results and Discussion: there were 57 subjects with epithelial ovarian cancer consisting of 25 subjects (43.86%) with high mGPS and 32 subjects (56.14%) with low mGPS. The value of mGPS is associated with the stage of ovarian cancer (p = 0.000; RP = 4.000 CI 95% = 2.195 – 7.289). The results of the multivariate analysis showed that the most important factor in determining the stage was mGPS (p = 0.000; RP = 3.818 95% CI = 1.544-6.092). While the most important factor in determining histopathologic grading of ovarian cancer was the type of ovarian tumor (p = 0.000; RP = 7.339 95% CI = 4.960-9.718).Conclusion: There was an association between mGPS and the stage of ovarian cancer. The histopathologic grading was not influenced by mGPS, but was influenced by the type of ovarian tumor.Keywords: mGPS; Stage; Histopathologic grading; Ovarian Cancer; Epithelial Type

To determine if the time-to-chemotherapy (TTC) after primary macroscopic complete cytoreductive surgery (CRS) influences recurrence-free survival (RFS) and overall survival (OS) in patients with epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC). We conducted an observational multicenter retrospective cohort analysis of women with EOC treated from September 2006 to November 2016 in nine institutions in France (FRANCOGYN research group) with maintained EOC databases. We included women with EOC (all FIGO stages) who underwent primary complete macroscopic CRS prior to platinum-based adjuvant chemotherapy. Two hundred thirty-three patients were included: 73 (31.3%) in the early-stage group (ESG) (FIGO I-II), and 160 (68.7%) in the advanced-stage group (ASG) (FIGO III-IV). Median TTC was 43 days (36–56). The median OS was 77.2 months (65.9–106.6). OS was lower in the ASG when TTC exceeded 8 weeks (70.5 vs. 59.3 months, p = 0.04). No impact on OS was found when TTC was below or above 6 weeks (78.5 and 66.8 months, respectively, p = 0.25). In the whole population, TTC had no impact on RFS or OS. None of the factors studied were associated with an increase in TTC. Chemotherapy should be initiated as soon as possible after CRS. A TTC greater than 8 weeks is associated with poorer OS in patients with advanced stage EOC.

Objective: To determine the expression of Phosphatase Regenerating Liver-3 (PRL-3) and E-Cadherin in the epithelial ovarian cancer on various stages and differentiation grades. Method: This was a cross-sectional study design conducted at Obstetrics and Gynecology Department of several teaching hospitals, Faculty of Medicine Universitas Hasanuddin from January to June 2015. The expression of PRL-3 and E-cadherin was assessed immunohistochemically in 40 patients with epithelial ovarian cancer including 15 patients in early stage and 25 patients in advanced stage. We used the Fisher’s exact test with the significance of p0.05). The significant difference was found in the expression of E-cadherin whereas the high expression was shown at early stage than advanced stage (p0.05). This study also pointed out no correlation between the expression of PRL-3 and E-cadherin in epithelial ovarian cancer (p>0.05). Conclusion: PRL-3 overexpression does not decrease E-cadherin expression in epithelial ovarian cancer. Keywords: E-cadherin, epithelial ovarian cancer, PRL-3
