Eleven untreated patients with advanced ovarian cancer were studied for tolerance and response to combination treatment with fixed doses of adriamycin (45 mg/m2) and cyclophosphamide (600 mg/m2) + escalating doses of carboplatin. At the first dose level of carboplatin (200 mg/m2), toxicity was acceptable. With carboplatin at 300 mg/m2, severe hematologic toxicity was observed. The dose-limiting toxicity was leukopenia. Although carboplatin was administered without any hydration, no patient experienced renal toxicity. Eight objective responses were observed in 9 clinically evaluable patients. At second look surgery, 3 complete responses and 4 partial responses were documented. Polychemotherapy with JAC (carboplatin, 200 mg/m2, adriamycin, 45 mg/m2, and cyclophosphamide, 600 mg/m2) is administrable with acceptable toxicity.
