ABSTRACT
Forty-seven women affected by Stage Ic-IV epithelial carcinoma of the ovary were treated with the combination of cisplatin, adriamycin (40-50 mg/m2 day 1), and cyclophosphamide (800 mg/m2 day 1) (CAP). Two different schedules of cisplatin were used 20 mg/m2 day 1-->5 (CAP 5), or 80 mg/m2 on day 1 (CAP 1). In the group of patients with measurable disease the overall response rate was 52%, with a 19% complete response rate. The mean disease-free survival of patients without measurable disease was 24.0+ months. The mean survival of the whole group was 29.2+ months. The mean survival of patients with measurable disease and those without measurable disease was 21.7+ and 35.0+ months respectively. The schedule of cisplatin employed did not influence disease-free survival since the difference between the CAP 1 (21+ months) and the CAP 5 (25+ months) groups was not statistically significant. However the CAP 5 schedule seemed to be better tolerated since it of allowed the delivery be 99% of the planned dose of CDDP, while in the CAP 1 group the dose of CDDP given was only 74% of that planned.
