Phase II Evaluation Of Capecitabine In Recurrent Platinum-Sensitive Ovarian Or Primary Peritoneal Cancer


OBJECTIVES:

- Determine the antitumor activity of capecitabine in patients with recurrent,
platinum-sensitive ovarian epithelial or primary peritoneal cavity cancer.

- Determine the nature and degree of toxicity of this drug in this patient population.

OUTLINE: This is a multicenter study.

Patients receive oral capecitabine twice daily for 14 days. Courses repeat every 21 days in
the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

Patients are followed every 3 months for 2 years and then every 6 months for 3 years.

PROJECTED ACCRUAL: A total of 22-60 patients will be accrued for this study within 6-12
months.
