Inclusion Criteria:

  1. Female patients 18 years of age and older

Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Sensitivity of OTL38 in Detecting Folate Receptor-alpha Positive Ovarian Cancer During Surgery.
Sensitivity for the detection of folate receptor-alpha positive (FRAP) ovarian cancer lesions is defined as the ratio (multiplied by 100) of the number of FRAO ovarian cancer lesions confirmed by both fluorescent light and the pathology/ and immunohistochemistry lab (TP) over the number of FRAP ovarian cancer lesions confirmed by the pathology/ and immunohistochemistry lab (TP+FN). 95% lower one-sided confidence interval was used.
Positive Predictive Value (PPV) of OTL38 in Detecting Folate Receptor-alpha Positive Ovarian Cancer During Surgery.
PPV for the detection of FRAP ovarian cancer lesions is defined as the ratio (multiplied by 100) of the number of FRAP ovarian cancer lesions confirmed by both fluorescent light and the pathology/ and immunohistochemistry lab (TP) over the number of FRAP ovarian cancer lesions confirmed by fluorescent light (TP + FP). 95% lower one-sided confidence interval was used.
