Abstract

Treatment of patients with recurrent ovarian cancer remains a challenge, and there is a need for new and more effective agents. A phase I-II study was designed to determine the recommended dose (RD) and the anti-tumour effect of a prolonged administration of elacytarabine, the elaidic ester of cytarabine, in patients with refractory/resistant recurrent ovarian cancer.
