We thank for the additional information [1] about the genetic changes in ovarian cancer. In future it will be important to investigate all possible genetic, translational, post-translational and also epigenetic changes in the different ovarian cancer subtypes. Research will also give additional insights in ovarian cancer pathogenesis. This will be the basis for the development of novel methods to diagnose and treat ovarian cancer early and efficiently to improve the prognosis of this fatal disease.
