A phase II trial of 4-demethoxydaunorubicin in refractory epithelial ovarian cancer. 1986

J J Kavanagh, and L J Copeland, and D M Gershenson, and P B Saul, and C L Edwards

Sixteen evaluable patients with refractory epithelial ovarian cancer were treated with oral 4-demethoxydaunorubicin. The drug was given in divided doses over 5 days and dosage was repeated every 3 weeks. There were no objective remissions. Three patients had stabilized disease of 5 to 7 months duration. Although well tolerated, this anthracycline has modest effectiveness against previously treated ovarian cancer.
