卵巢癌的長期維持治療

Long-Term Maintenance or Consolidation of Epithelial Ovarian Cancer

摘要


卵巢癌患者在診斷時多屬晚期,標準治療是在減積手術後,以paclitaxel和carboplatin或cisplatinum作6個療程的術後輔助性化學治療,有效率雖高,但最後大部份患者仍會復發,復發後治癒的機會渺茫,僅在延長生命。最近有些報告提出建議,對首次化學治療後達完全有效的患者,不妨以單一未使用過的有效藥物,作加強或維持治療,對延長生命及生活品質可能較佳,但仍需更多案例的證明。

並列摘要


Most patients with advanced ovarian cancer achieve a clinical complete remission after cytoreductive surgery and combination chemotherapy, usually with six cycles of paclitaxel together with carboplatin. Unfortunately, the majority of patients experience disease recurrence. Although second-line treatments provide effective palliation and may extend survival, they are not curative. Consequently, if an effective consolidation or maintenance therapy that would prevent recurrences after a clinical complete response, it could have a potentially greater impact in advanced ovarian cancer. Generally, maintenance therapies have focused on prolonged administration of single-agent chemotherapy or extended cycles of induction chemotherapy. Several reports have been shown to extend survival in patients with advanced ovarian cancer.
