Abstract

Two hundred fifty-nine patients with ovarian cancers were treated with the combination of CDDP, aclarubicin and tegafur. Ninety-seven of them had macroscopic diseases during the combination chemotherapy, and the overall anti-tumor response rate (CR + PR) for these patients was 54.6%. It was 60.0% for the 80 cases with epithelial ovarian cancer among them. The median survival time for the antitumor responders was 18 months, against 7 months for the non-responders and 18 months for 103 patients with advanced ovarian cancer (stage III-IV).
