Ovarian cancer remains a significant public health challenge. It originates in the ovaries and presents in various histological subtypes. Surgery and chemotherapy are the most suitable treatments to combat this disease. This study aims to provide insights into the mechanisms and biological complexity needed to understand the pathogenesis of recurrent ovarian cancer. A thorough review of the relevant literature on recurrent ovarian cancer and immunotherapy was conducted to gather information on genetic factors, immune responses, therapeutic strategies, and other pertinent data. The findings were analyzed and discussed to provide an in-depth understanding aligned with the study’s objectives. Recurrent ovarian cancer is a major clinical challenge that occurs when the disease returns after initial treatment and a period of remission. Recurrence typically arises when residual cancer cells remain in the body after treatment, eventually leading to disease progression. Genetic factors, including mutations in BRCA1/BRCA2 and other genetic markers, play a crucial role in ovarian cancer recurrence and influence responses to therapies. The immune system's response to cancer cells is also critical, with therapeutic interventions either enhancing or reducing efficacy. The complex mechanisms underlying ovarian cancer and its recurrence have left many aspects of the disease pathway still to be fully understood. In conclusion, a comprehensive understanding of genetic and immune factors is crucial for developing effective and personalized treatments.
