Biology of ovarian cancer: Models, microenvironment, and therapeutics: 15th Biennial Rivkin Center Ovarian Cancer Research Symposium
<h2>Abstract</h2> The 15th Biennial Ovarian Cancer Research Symposium presented by the Rivkin Center for Ovarian Cancer and the American Association for Cancer Research held on September 20–21, 2024, in Seattle, WA covered cutting-edge research on the etiology and pathobiology of ovarian cancer. Several sessions focused on novel therapies including targeting the immunosuppressive microenvironment and advances in early detection. In this article we provide an overview of the key findings presented in the biology of ovarian cancer session, which covered novel model systems that accurately represent the disease, features of the tumor microenvironment (TME), and advances in understanding the genomic landscape and biomarkers of response.
