RESUMO
We reviewed our clinical experience of olaparib treatment for patients with platinum-sensitive recurrent ovarian, fallopian tube, and peritoneal cancer. Of the 10 cases, the primary sites of cancer were the ovaries, fallopian tubes, and peritoneum in 7, 1 and 2 cases, respectively. The median period of treatment administration was 10 months. The observed Grade 3 or 4 adverse events as per the Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events version 4.0 were: anemia, leukopenia and neut r openia in 4, 4 and 3 cases, respectively. Eight cases needed treatment to be interrupted, and 5 cases required a reduction in dose. Three patients were treated for more than 12 months, while the others had to discontinue due to disease progression. However, none of the patients had to discontinue treatment due to adverse events. Therefore, it appears that olaparib can be safely used despite some patients requiring a withdrawal or reduction in treatment.

OBJECTIVES: Treatment for ovarian cancer with bevacizumab(Bmab)has been covered by public medical insurance in Japan since November 2013. It is recommended that the use of Bmab is limited to the first treatment for FIGO stage III or IV ovarian cancer. The OCEAN trial for platinum sensitivity in relapsed patients and the AURELIA trial for platinum-resistance in relapsed patients were performed, and both significantly improved progression-free survival. METHOD: We retrospectively studied patients receiving Bmab with an anticancer agent for recurrent ovarian cancer. Written informed consent was obtained from all patients. RESULTS: Between November 2013 and September 2015, Bmab at 15mg/kg/3-4 week was administered to 20 patients with recurrent ovarian cancer. The median age was 58 years(range 32-81)and the median performance status was 0-2. Platinum-sensitive recurrence occurred in 6 patients. The response rate and disease control rate of combination chemotherapy with Bmab was 50.0% and 57.1%. However, 11 patients stopped treatment with Bmab due to serious adverse events. CONCLUSION: Combination chemotherapy with Bmab for recurrent ovarian cancer may be feasible.
