Apatinib Combined With Abraxane and Carboplatin or Cisplatinum as First-line Treatment for Epithelial Ovarian Cancer

This monocentric, prospective, observational study will evaluate the safety and efficacy of apatinib in combination with albumin binds paclitaxel and carboplatin or cisplatinum as first-line treatment for stage II-IV epithelial ovarian cancer followed by apatinib maintenance therapy in routine clinical practice. Eligible patients will be followed for approximately 20 months.
