Brief Summary
The goal of this non-randomized prospective study is to use 18F-EF5-PET/CT imaging to identify and locate intraabdominal hypoxic ovarian cancer lesions. With targeted surgical sampling, precisely obtain hypoxic and potentially chemoresistant cancer tissue for our analyses and identify key molecular differences between hypoxic and non-hypoxic tumors within the same patient. A portion of advanced stage EOC are inoperable at diagnosis and can be treated with neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NACT) before surgery. This approach offers a unique opportunity to study how hypoxic tumor areas respond to treatment.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
18F-EF5 maximum standardized uptake values (SUVmax)
Tumor and musculus gluteus maximus SUVmax ratio ≥1.5 is considered to refer to hypoxia
2-3 years

2-3 years
Disease-free survival
5 years
Overall survival
5 years
Study Arms (2)
PDS
EXPERIMENTAL18F-EF5 PET/CT and 18F-FDG PET/CT scan prior to primary cytoreductive surgery and targeted sample collection during primary cytoreductive surgery
IDS
EXPERIMENTAL18F-EF5 PET/CT and 18F-FDG PET/CT scans prior to diagnostic laparoscopy and after neoadjuvant chemotherapy before interval cytoreductive surgery . Targeted sample collection during diagnostic laparoscopy and interval cytoreductive surgery
Interventions
Both 18F-FDG PET/CT and 18F-EF5 PET/CT imaging are performed in 1) preoperative work-up to clarify the disease distribution, 2) before IDS to evaluate treatment response to NACT (IDS arm); targeted samples from hypoxic and non-hypoxic tumors are collected during surgery
