Shifting Survival Horizons in Advanced Ovarian Cancer: A Conditional Survival Perspective.
Article in Current oncology (Toronto, Ont.), 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Advanced-stage epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) is defined by biological heterogeneity and poor outcomes, and traditional survival metrics fail to reflect the evolving nature of prognosis as patients survive longer. This study aimed to evaluate conditional survival (CS) in advanced EOC using both overall survival (OS) and progression-free survival (PFS) metrics to provide a dynamic understanding of long-term outcomes. We retrospectively analyzed 808 patients with FIGO stage III-IV EOC who underwent surgery at Baskent University Ankara Hospital between 2004 and 2024. CS estimates were calculated for additional 1- and 5-year intervals among patients who had already survived 6 months, 1, 3, or 5 years after surgery. Median OS and PFS were 4.37 and 1.70 years, respectively. Peritoneal dissemination and platinum resistance were independent predictors of poor survival. Approximately 11% of patients achieved survival beyond ten years. The 1-year CS-OS increased from 87% at 6 months to 95% at 5 years, while the 5-year CS-OS rose from 49% to 66%; corresponding CS-PFS values increased from 89% to 95% and from 44% to 62%. Conditional survival analysis underscores that prognosis in advanced ovarian cancer is not static but continually improves with time survived and sustained disease control. These insights redefine long-term outcomes and provide a modern foundation for individualized patient counseling and survivorship planning.
