Summary

Ovarian Cancer (OC) is one of the most common gynecological malignant tumors. In recent years, the incidence of ovarian cancer in China has been on the rise, but its mortality ranks the first among gynecological tumors. Cytoreductive Surgery (CRS) combined with chemotherapy is the standard treatment for patients with advanced ovarian cancer. However, most of the ovarian cancer is stage Ⅲ and above, and there may be a certain degree of organ metastasis. Preclinical studies have found that the stress of melanoma block beta adrenergic signals in mice, which USES beta blockers, checkpoint will enhance resistance to PD - 1 the activity of the inhibitor, to improve the treatment of mice on the immune response. Non-selective β-blockers can also improve the efficacy of melanoma immunotherapy. Retrospective studies have shown that incidental use of β-blockers in combination with antiangiogenic agents, chemotherapy, and immune therapy can prolong DFS, PFS, and OS in cancer patients. A large, multicenter retrospective study found that ovarian cancer patients who took nonselective β-blockers for hypertension had better survival than those who did not. In conclusion, this study aims to explore new auxiliary chemotherapy combined propranolol treatment of high efficacy and safety of ovarian cancer, provide more evidence-based basis for clinic.
