Treosulfan (dihydroxybusulphan) in the management of ovarian carcinoma.

Of 36 patients with ovarian carcinoma treated with treosulfan (dihydroxybusulphan) 30-5 per cent had a complete response for a mean of 19-0 months and 33-3 per cent had a partial response. Treosulfan may have a role in the management of ascites associated with ovarian neoplasm.

Recurrent ovarian carcinoma: diagnosis and second-line therapy.

Approximately 10% of patients with ovarian cancer will develop a recurrence. Successful treatment of recurring disease has been documented, and recent developments in chemotherapy are encouraging. In our study, CA125 Tumour Marker was a useful marker to monitor the course of such disease, and detected recurring ovarian cancer at a sub-clinical level, leading to earlier diagnosis. This may have implications for outcome.
