The goal of this study was to profile EOCs for somatic copy number alterations (SCNAs) as predictive markers of platinum response. METHODS: SCNAs were assessed in a discovery (n=86) and validation cohort (n=115) of high risk stage I or stage II-IV EOCs using high-resolution SNP arrays. ASCAT and GISTIC...
