Ovarian cancer has the highest death rate of any cancer tied to the human female reproductive system, so when news of a possible leap forward in treatment comes about, many millions of people listen up.
In the latest news, an experimental vaccine has been found
to assist in treating (but not preventing) epithelial ovarian cancer. This is the most common type of ovarian cancer.
An ovarian cancer vaccine would be the preferred way to treat this deadly condition, which is generally found too late into its progression to make it a non-deadly cancer type. Based on this fact, a strong treatment has been hailed as what is needed. Perhaps that day is close at hand.
