PURPOSE: This phase II study was conducted to evaluate the efficacy and toxicity of docetaxel in the treatment of patients with platinum-refractory ovarian cancer.
PATIENTS AND METHODS: Twenty-five patients with platinum-refractory advanced ovarian cancer were treated. Twenty of the patients had failed to respond to platinum-based front-line chemotherapy and five had failed to respond to platinum-based therapy repeated at relapse. One patient had received prior pelvic radiation therapy. Patients were required to have bidimensionally measurable disease. Docetaxel was administered at a dose of 100 mg/m2 intravenously (i.v.) over 1 hour every 21 days. Twenty patients received no corticosteroid premedication and five received premedication with corticosteroids and antihistamines.
RESULTS: Eight of 23 assessable patients (35%) had a partial response (PR; 95% confidence interval, 16% to 57%). The median response duration was 5 months. Hospitalization for toxicity, predominantly neutropenic fever, occurred in 12 patients (48%) and 16% of courses. Anemia was common in the study population. Nonhematologic toxicities included alopecia, rash, fluid retention, diarrhea, peripheral neuropathy, and hypersensitivity reactions.
CONCLUSION: Docetaxel demonstrates significant activity in patients with platinum-refractory advanced ovarian cancer. Routine premedication is recommended. Further investigations of this agent in ovarian cancer, including combinations with other active agents, appear indicated.
