Chemotherapy: Current drugs still have potential in advanced ovarian cancer.

Dose-dense administration of paclitaxel as well as intraperitoneal administration of platinum and paclitaxel as first-line treatments provide similar advantages compared with standard treatment in advanced ovarian cancer. Both approaches, however, need to be confirmed by additional studies. a low dose of pegylated liposomal doxorubicin combined with carboplatin is superior to standard paclitaxel and carboplatin in relapsed platinum-sensitive ovarian cancer.
