Abstract Purpose To evaluate the efficacy and toxicity of angiogenesis inhibitors for the treatment of ovarian cancer patients, we conducted a meta-analysis of the published literature on this subject. Methods In this meta-analysis, we searched PubMed, EMBASE, Web of Science, and Cochrane Library databases for randomized controlled trials (RCTs). The literature search was performed up to August 12, 2019. The risk of bias of the included studies was evaluated using The Cochrane Collaboration’s tool, and the statistical analyses were performed using RevMan 5.3 software. The sensitivity analysis was performed with Stata 12.0 software. Results 22 RCTs with 11,254 patients were included. Our meta-analysis demonstrates that angiogenesis inhibitors therapy can significantly improve progression-free survival (PFS) (hazard ratio [HR] 0.71, 95% CI 0.63–0.79, I2 = 80%, P
