Advanced-stage epithelial ovarian cancer remains a highly lethal malignancy, despite effective cytoreductive surgery and primary chemotherapy. Phase III studies have evaluated multidrug combinations, dose-dense weekly scheduling, intraperitoneal delivery, neoadjuvant chemotherapy, maintenance therapy, and targeting of angiogenesis. Incremental gains in median progression-free or overall survival have been achieved, but without an impact on overall mortality. Data support intraperitoneal cisplatin, dose-dense weekly paclitaxel, or neoadjuvant chemotherapy with interval cytoreduction in appropriate patients. Encouraging data have emerged using anti-angiogenic agents, but with questions regarding optimal timing and patient selection. The use of 3-drug combinations or maintenance chemotherapy is not supported.
