OBJECTIVE: Ovarian cancer is one of the most lethal gynecological malignancies. This study aimed to evaluate the prognostic significance of complete blood count (CBC) and lipid profile in patients with optimally debulked epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) and develop a nomogram model to predict recurrence-free survival (RFS). METHODS: This retrospective study analyzed patients diagnosed with EOC between January 2018 and June 2022. RESULTS: A total of 307 patients were randomly divided into training and validation sets in a ratio of 7:3. Grade, International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics (FIGO) stage, platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio, red blood cell distribution width-coefficient of variation, triglycerides, and human epididymal protein 4 were identified as independent prognostic factors. The novel nomogram displayed a good predictive performance, with a concordance index (C-index) of 0.787 in the training group and 0.807 in the validation group. The areas under the curve for 1-, 3-, and 5-year RFS were 0.770, 0.881, and 0.904, respectively, in the training group, and 0.667, 0.906, and 0.886, respectively, in the validation group. The calibration curves exhibited good concordance between the predicted survival probabilities and actual observations. Time-dependent C-index curves, integrated discrimination improvement, net reclassification index, and decision curve analysis showed that the nomogram outperformed FIGO staging. CONCLUSION: This study established and validated a nomogram combining CBC and lipid profiles to predict RFS in patients with optimally debulked EOC, which is expected to aid gynecologists in individualized prognosis assessment and clinical management.
