The following samples may be collected during the study:

* Tumour tissue samples
* Blood samples
* Ascites samples
* Other fluids requiring drainage

Tumour tissue will be taken from samples already removed from surgery or biopsy or by new tumour biopsies:

* At the time of diagnosis or progression
* Any surgical procedures for management of tumour related medical conditions
* At each subsequent relapse or disease progression

Tumour tissue collection

Blood samples will be taken:

* At the time of first diagnosis
* About 1 week after starting any treatment
* At each radiological response assessment
* At each subsequent relapse or disease progression

Blood sample collection

Ascites will be collected if paracentesis is required during any of the following time points:

* At the time of diagnosis or progression
* Any surgical procedures for management of tumour related medical conditions
* At each subsequent relapse or disease progression

Ascites Collection

Additional fluid will be collected at any time a procedure for clinical management that involves the drainage of fluid (i.e. thoracentesis, or drainage of cystic lesion) is required.

This is a sample study that will collect biological samples (blood, tumor tissue, ascites, and/or other fluids) from gynecological cancer patients for biomarker research. In addition, the results of the testing done on the samples will be given to the participant's treating physician who may use the information to guide treatment decisions.
