Survival rates for people with ovarian cancer have remained pretty much the same.As with any cancer, it depends on how early it is diagnosed. If diagnosed early, the 5 year survival rate is 92%. With regional and distant disease, the rates drop to 71% - 30%.However, we have been able to prolong life for those with advanced ovarian cancer. This has drmatically increased over the past 10 years.Hope this answers your question
