Objective. There is a need to find agents with activity in platinum and taxane refractory ovarian cancer to be employed as second-line therapy in the malignancy. Limited clinical trial experience has suggested that gemcitabine possesses activity in this clinical setting.

Patients with ovarian or fallopian tube cancer or primary carcinoma of the peritoneum, whose disease had either failed to respond to a platinum and taxane treatment, or had responded but the "treatment free interval (TFI)" was less than or equal to3 months, or if the TH was >3 months and they had been retreated with the agents and not responded (or experienced a TFI of
