| Popis: |
40 patients with advanced ovarian cancer were treated with immediate debulking followed by sequential cisplatin and doxorubicin every 4 weeks, followed by second-look laparotomy (SLL). Six courses were given when residual disease (RD) was under 2 cm. When RD was over 2 cm, three courses were followed by early debulking and six more courses before SLL. Immediate debulking was optimal in 15 patients (38%) and early debulking in an additional 15 (38%). Pathological complete responses (34 evaluable cases) were observed in 14 cases (41%), partial response in 13 (38%), stable disease in 3 (9%) and progression in 5 (15%). Toxicity was mainly haematological. 11 patients with negative SLL and 15 with RD under 2 cm received intraperitoneal cisplatin 200 mg/m2 alone or with cytarabine. Median survival was 45 months: 58 months for RD under 2 cm at initial laparotomy and 31 months for RD over 2 cm. Median survival was 46 months when early debulking was successful. 5 year disease-free survival was only 16%. However, this multimodal treatment offers prolonged survival, especially in patients optimally debulked either at initial laparotomy or at early debulking surgery. |
