Summary Focuses on molecular strategies for the treatment of gynecologic cancer. This work presents the hypothesis that cancer is a disease of the cell cycle, based on the deregulation of the physiological process of cell reproduction. It also focuses on the model of ovarian serous carcinogenesis, molecular markers for ovarian epithelial cancer, and more
