Ovarian cancer is relatively uncommon and is histologically very diverse, making it difficult to analyse ovarian cancer at a molecular level, to identify genetic risk factors, or to understand the interaction of genes and environment. Recognizing that a large collaborative study was the only way to achieve sufficient power to address major translational questions in ovarian cancer, the Australian Ovarian Cancer Study was established and is now the largest study of its kind in the world. This proposal aims to maintain and add value to this unique resource for ovarian cancer research.

卵巢癌相对不常见，组织学上非常多样化，这使得很难在分子水平上分析卵巢癌，确定遗传风险因素，或了解基因与环境的相互作用。认识到大型合作研究是获得足够力量解决卵巢癌主要转化问题的唯一途径，澳大利亚卵巢癌研究成立了，现在是世界上同类研究中规模最大的。本提案旨在维护和增加卵巢癌研究这一独特资源的价值。
