A Bidirectional Cohort Study on Prophylactic Resection Surgery in Populations at Moderate-to-High Risk for Hereditary Ovarian Cancer
Sponsor: Peking University Third Hospital
Summary
The goal of this multi-center observational study is to learn about the effectiveness and safety of different prophylactic (preventive) surgical options in women at moderate-to-high genetic risk for hereditary ovarian cancer (HOC). The main questions it aims to answer are: Does individualized prophylactic surgery (such as removing fallopian tubes now and delaying ovary removal) effectively reduce the risk of developing ovarian cancer compared to standard care or close monitoring? How do these different surgical interventions affect a woman's ovarian function and quality of life? What Participants Will Do: Participants who are healthy carriers of specific genetic mutations (such as BRCA1/2, RAD51C/D, etc.) will be followed in a bidirectional cohort. Depending on the medical care and surgical path they choose with their doctors (Standard RRSO, Delayed Oophorectomy, or Close Monitoring), researchers will collect their clinical data, surgical pathology results, and follow-up information regarding cancer incidence and quality of life for 3 years.
