PurposeA previous report suggested the nadir serum CA-125 level within the group of patients with ovarian cancer who achieved normalization of CA-125 accurately defined the risk of relapse. Using similar CA-125 subgroups, we sought to determine if the baseline CA-125 level before initiation of maintenance chemotherapy in women achieving a clinically-defined complete response to primary chemotherapy would be of prognostic value.Patients and MethodsPatients included in this retrospective analysis had been treated on one of two previously reported trials of maintenance chemotherapy (three v 1 2-monthly cycles of paclitaxel; oral altretamine), with a baseline CA-125 level of
