Brief Summary
The study concerns patients with Invasive epithelial ovarian cancer, primary Fallopian tube carcinoma, ovarian-type peritoneal carcinoma, and with an indication of a first-line platinum-based chemotherapy. To determine HRD status, 2 separate tests will be performed in the study:
- 1.Giscar assay : developed by the sponsor
- 2.myChoice assay

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Rate of platinum-sensitive ovarian cancer patients according to GIScar HRD signature (classified into HRD or HRP).
Evaluate Platinum-sensitivity patients (defined as absence of disease progression, according to RECIST 1.1 criteria, six months after a first-line platinum-based chemotherapy) correlated with Homologous Recombination status in tumor (HRD : Homologous Recombination deficient / HRP :Homologous Recombination Proficient)
six months after the end of platinum-based chemotherapy
Study Arms (1)
HRD tests
OTHERTo determine HRD status on the tumor, 2 different tests will be used concomitantly
Interventions
Test Giscar AND test myChoice will be performed. If one or two tests identifies a HRD status : a PARP inhibitor treatment may be initiated according to current recommendations
Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- Patient aged 18-year or more
- Histologically documented high grade serous epithelial ovarian cancer, fallopian tube or peritoneum cancer
- Newly diagnosed advanced (International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics \[FIGO\] stage III or IV) ovarian carcinoma, candidate to a first line platinum-based chemotherapy
- Tumor tissue must be available for HRD analyses (FFPE tissue block) and
- Collected if possible during the initial surgery or the initial biopsy (before chemotherapy)
- With sufficient tumour surface area (\> 25 mm²), with a final cellularity of at least 20%
- Patient affiliated to an appropriate social security system
- Patient signed consent form before any trial related activities
You may not qualify if:
- Recurrent high grade serous epithelial ovarian cancer, fallopian tube or peritoneum cancer
- Non epithelial or borderline ovarian cancer
- Other tumor, for which the treatment may interfere with the ovarian cancer treatment and/or that may have a major impact on prognosis
- Exclusive palliative setting
- Patient deprived of liberty or placed under the authority of a tutor
