title: [A case of papillary adenocarcinoma of the ovary that responded favorably to irinotecan hydrochloride and cisplatin after the administration of paclitaxel and carboplatin].
abstract: Recently, the standard treatment for advanced ovarian cancer has changed from CP therapy (cyclophosphamide, cisplatin (CDDP)) to TJ therapy (paclitaxel (TXL), carboplatin (CBDCA)). Irinotecan (CPT-11) is one of the derivatives of camptotecin and has been reported to have a high efficacy for ovarian cancer. In one case of ovarian cancer, chemotherapy was applied with CBDCA and TXL. However, after 2 months of six courses of the chemotherapy, CA-125 was elevated. The elevation of tumor marker levels in serum without the recurrent focus forced us to treat the patient with CPT-11 and CDDP for the second line chemotherapy. Tumor marker levels improved at the beginning of the therapy. In conclusion, CPT-11 and CDDP was effective against the recurrence of ovarian cancer treated with TJ therapy.
