This guideline covers detecting, diagnosing and treating women (aged 18 and older) who have, or are suspected of having, epithelial ovarian cancer, fallopian tube cancer, primary peritoneal cancer or borderline ovarian cancer. It aims to enable earlier detection of ovarian cancer and improve initial treatment.
Ovarian cancer: identifying and managing familial and genetic risk (NG241)
This guideline covers assessing the familial and genetic risk of having a pathogenic variant associated with ovarian cancer in adults.
This quality standard covers the identification and management of familial and genetic risk and the recognition and management of ovarian, fallopian tube and primary peritoneal cancer or borderline ovarian cancer in women, trans men and non-binary people aged 18 and over with female reproductive organs (ovaries, fallopian tubes or a uterus). It describes high-quality care in priority areas for improvement.

Guidance on the use of paclitaxel in the treatment of ovarian cancer (TA55)
Evidence-based recommendations on paclitaxel for treating ovarian cancer in adults.
Evidence-based recommendations on bevacizumab (Avastin), with paclitaxel and carboplatin, for treating advanced ovarian cancer in adults.
Evidence-based recommendations on olaparib (Lynparza) with bevacizumab (Avastin) for high-grade epithelial ovarian, fallopian tube or primary peritoneal cancer in adults.
Evidence-based recommendations on bevacizumab (Avastin), with gemcitabine and carboplatin, for treating platinum-sensitive advanced ovarian cancer in adults.
Evidence-based recommendations on topotecan, pegylated liposomal doxorubicin hydrochloride (Caelyx; PLDH), paclitaxel, trabectedin (Yondelis) and gemcitabine. These drugs are for people with ovarian cancer that has come back some time after it was first treated.
Evidence-based recommendations on rucaparib (Rubraca) for maintenance treatment of advanced ovarian, fallopian tube and peritoneal cancer after response to first-line platinum-based chemotherapy in adults.
Evidence-based recommendations on niraparib (Zejula) for maintenance treatment of advanced (FIGO stages 3 and 4) ovarian, fallopian tube or peritoneal cancer after response to first-line platinum-based chemotherapy in adults.
Paclitaxel + XR17 (Paclical) with carboplatin for ovarian cancer [TSID5462]
Topic prioritisation
Maximal cytoreductive surgery for advanced ovarian cancer (HTG668)
Evidence-based recommendations on maximal cytoreductive surgery for advanced ovarian cancer. This involves removing all or almost all visible cancerous tissue. More tissue is removed than with standard surgery. The aim is to improve outcomes for people with advanced ovarian cancer.

Evidence-based recommendations on olaparib (Lynparza) for maintenance treatment of relapsed, platinum-sensitive ovarian, fallopian tube or peritoneal cancer after 2 or more courses of platinum-based chemotherapy in adults.
This guideline covers care for people with a family history of breast, ovarian or another related (prostate or pancreatic) cancer. It aims to improve the long-term health of these families by describing strategies to reduce the risk of and promote early detection of breast cancer (including genetic testing and mammography). It also includes advice on treatments (tamoxifen, raloxifene) and surgery (mastectomy).
