Who might be able to join this trial:

• You have been diagnosed with ovarian cancer, fallopian tube cancer, or primary peritoneal cancer (a cancer affecting the lining of the abdomen).
• You are newly diagnosed and have never had chemotherapy before, OR you have a cancer that has not responded well to treatment and have had no more than 2 rounds of standard chemotherapy.
• You are any age.
• Your tumor can be reached safely for a small tissue sample (biopsy) or fluid drainage, and you agree to this procedure.
• Chemotherapy is considered a suitable treatment option for you.

Who may not be able to join:

• You have brain tumors that are causing symptoms or are not well controlled, or your tumor cannot be safely accessed for a biopsy.
• You have cancer that has spread to the membranes surrounding the brain or spinal cord.
• Chemotherapy is not considered a medically appropriate option for you.
• You are pregnant. If you could become pregnant, you must inform your doctor right away if you think you may have become pregnant during the study, as you would need to be withdrawn. This applies to any woman who has had periods and has not gone through menopause (no periods for more than 12 months in a row) or had surgery to prevent pregnancy — even if you use contraception (confirm with trial site).
