ABSTRACT
<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To evaluate the efficacy of treatment options for patients with recurrent ovarian cancer.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>From 1990 to 2000, 54 patients with recurrent ovarian cancer primarily treated in Peking Union Medical College Hospital were selected and reviewed. All the clinical data related to the recurrent tumor were collected. Two-side P values for differences in survival were calculated by the Cox regression model.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>The platinum-free interval > 6 months and the surgery followed by salvage chemotherapy prolonged survival time of the patients with recurrent ovarian cancer (95% CI = 0.153-0.987, P = 0.047; 95% CI = 1.611-10.914, P = 0.003, respectively). The increased number of chemotherapy cycles ( > 10 months) offered some benefit on the survival (95% CI = 0.110-1.090, P = 0.070). The initiation of treatment and chemotherapy regiments failed to demonstrate an improvement in survival.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>The treatment options for patients with recurrent ovarian cancer depend on the platinum-free-interval of the patients. A strategy of secondary surgical cytoreduction followed by salvage chemotherapy is suggested for the patients with platinum-sensitive disease.</p>
