Abstract

Epithelial ovarian cancers (EOC) can be defined across different histologic subtypes by specific DNA methylation profiles which correlate with outcome. Identification of distinct EOC methylation subgroups emphasizes the role of epigenetic remodeling to establish unique EOC etiology during transformation, and harbors the potential to direct personalized medicine and patient care.<i>See related article by Bodelon et al., p. 5937</i>.
