Popis: Genetic abnormalities of cancer cells are complex and usually nonspecific. Genetic anomalies specific to ovarian cancer have not been reported. This article focuses on what molecular anomalies are known in ovarian cancer and describes the first trials that have used transfer of genes to reestablish a normal cellular function in this disease. Suicide gene therapy has been the prototype of this new therapeutic approach.
