Aim: Pegylated liposomal doxorubicin (PLD) is one of the second‐line chemotherapy regimens for platinum‐resistant recurrent ovarian cancer, but in clinical practice, it is also used for third or subsequent lines of chemotherapy. There is no report on the efficacy and toxicity of PLD in relation to the number of previous chemotherapy regimens. The purpose of this study was to clarify these points and compare with the results of gemcitabine (GEM) therapy we reported previously. Methods: We retrospectively reviewed the medical records of patients with platinum‐resistant recurrent ovarian cancer who underwent two or more cycles of PLD therapy between July 2009 and March 2017 at our institution. We used our reported data of GEM for comparison analysis. Results: Seventy‐eight patients were enrolled in this study. The overall response rate was 19.2% and the disease control rate (DCR) was 53.8%. The DCR with 1, 2, 3, and 4 or more previous regimens was 53.8%, 48.6%, 63.6% and 66.7%, respectively. Grade 3/4 neutropenia and anemia developed in 59.0% and 12.8%, respectively. Grade 2 or higher hand ‐foot syndrome, stomatitis, and liver dysfunction developed in 25.6%, 25.6% and 2.6%, respectively. When the number of previous regimens was 3 or higher, the DCR of PLD was significantly higher than that of GEM (64.7% vs 30.8%, P = 0.037). Conclusion: The DCR did not decrease with a greater number of previous regimens. When the number of previous regimens was 3 or higher, PLD therapy had a superior DCR to GEM therapy. Toxicity was tolerable in PLD therapy. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
