3. Patients must have had CT or MRI proven relapsed disease (measureable or non-measureable abnormalities supported by GCIG CA125 criteria of progression), or have had debulking surgery for first relapse.

4. Patients showing response to chemotherapy mid-treatment (post 3 or 4 cycles), either by CA125, on a CT/MRI scan, or no evidence of progression having undergone surgical debulking, should be approached for ICON9 trial registration to allow for BRCA mutation status to be assessed (germline and/ or somatic).
