abstract: Effects of bevacizumab and pegylated liposomal doxorubicin for the patients with recurrent or refractory ovarian cancers




OBJECTIVES:

Currently, pegylated liposomal doxorubicin (PLD) is regarded as one of the standard treatment options in recurrent ovarian cancers (ROC). Bevacizumab has shown significant antitumor activity for ROC in single-agent or in combination with cytotoxic agents. We have conducted a preliminary study to investigate effects of combination of bevacizumab and PLD for heavily pretreated patients with ROC.

CONCLUSION
:
The present investigation suggested that combination therapy with bevacizumab and PLD was active and well tolerated for patients with ROC. We recommend the regimen be evaluated in further clinical studies.
