Paclitaxel i.v. Plus Cisplatin i.p for NACT in Patients With Advanced Ovarian Cancer

Summary

To test the effect of intravenous paclitaxel plus intraperitoneal cisplatin for neo-adjuvant chemotherapy in patients with advanced ovarian cancer, the investigators conducted a phase III single arm clinical trial. Included patients will receive interval debulking surgery after 2-6 cycles neoadjuvant chemotherapy based on the clinical judgment of the gynecologic oncologist. Six cycles of chemotherapy will conducted after surgery. And the neoadjuvant chemotherapy is as follows: paclitaxel 135 mg/m2 i.v. and cisplatin 75 mg/m2 i.p. on day 1. The primary end point is optimal debulking rates. the investigators also will evaluate effect on parameters of volume of ascites, tumor size, duration of surgery, hemorrhage, hospitalizations and postoperative complication etc. After comparing with data published online, the investigators will try to find out if paclitaxel i.v. plus cisplatin i.p. is a superior neoadjuvant chemotherapy for advanced ovarian carcinoma.
