GOG 262: Weekly vs. Every-3-Week Paclitaxel and Carboplatin for Ovarian Cancer

Weekly paclitaxel did not significantly extend progression-free survival (PFS) compared to every-3-week paclitaxel overall.

GOG 172: Intraperitoneal Cisplatin and Paclitaxel in Ovarian Cancer

IP administration of cisplatin and paclitaxel significantly improves both progression-free and overall survival in patients with optimally debulked stage III ovarian cancer compared to standard IV therapy, despite increased toxicities.

GOG 158: Carboplatin and Paclitaxel Compared With Cisplatin and Paclitaxel in Patients With Optimally Resected Stage III Ovarian Cancer

The combination of carboplatin and paclitaxel is not inferior to cisplatin and paclitaxel in patients with optimally resected stage III ovarian cancer. Carboplatin plus paclitaxel results in less toxicity and is easier to administer.

CHORUS Trial: PDS vs. NACT

Primary chemotherapy followed by delayed surgery is non-inferior to primary surgery followed by chemotherapy in women with advanced ovarian cancer, with reduced surgical morbidity and mortality.

Neoadjuvant Chemotherapy or Primary Surgery in Stage IIIC or IV Ovarian Cancer: EORTC Trial

Neoadjuvant chemotherapy followed by interval debulking surgery is not inferior to primary debulking surgery followed by chemotherapy in patients with bulky stage IIIC or IV ovarian carcinoma. Complete resection of all macroscopic disease remains the objective in cytoreductive surgery.
