Ovarian cancer (OC) is a highly heterogeneous disease, with patients at different tumor staging having different survival times. Metabolic reprogramming is one of the key hallmarks of cancer; however, the significance of metabolism-related genes in the prognosis and therapy outcomes of OC is unclear. In this study, we used weighted gene coexpression network analysis and differential expression analysis to screen for metabolism-related genes associated with tumor staging. We constructed the metabolism-related gene prognostic index (MRGPI), which demonstrated a stable prognostic value across multiple clinical trial end points and multiple validation cohorts. The MRGPI population had its distinct molecular features, mutational characteristics, and immune phenotypes. In addition, we investigated the response to immunotherapy in MRGPI subgroups and found that patients with low MRGPI were prone to benefit from anti-PD-1 checkpoint blockade therapy and exhibited a delayed treatment effect. Meanwhile, we identified four candidate therapeutic drugs (ABT-737, crizotinib, panobinostat, and regorafenib) for patients with high MRGPI, and we evaluated the pharmacokinetics and safety of the candidate drugs. In summary, the MRGPI was a robust clinical feature that could predict patient prognosis, immunotherapy response, and candidate drugs, facilitating clinical decision making and therapeutic strategy of OC.
