Abstract

Objective To investigate the clinical efficacy of bevacizumab combined with chemotherapy in the treatment of recurrent ovarian cancer. Methods 36 patients pathologically confirmed with recurrent ovarian cancer were selected; and all received chemotherapy with pemetrexed+ lobaplatin; 3 weeks were 1 cycle; they were treated 4-6 cycles. Bevacizumab was intravenous infused 1 h before chemotherapy, 7.5 mg/kg for 2 cycles. The clinical efficacy, toxicity, and survival time were observed. Results 5 cases got CR, 13 PR, 10 SD, and 8 PD. The RR was 50.0%(18/36). The DCR was 77.8%(28/36). The main adverse reactions were gastrointestinal reaction, bone marrow suppression, and hypertension. The OS was (15.4±2.4) months. The PFS was (10.2±2.6) months. Conclusions Bevacizumab combining chemotherapy for recurrent ovarian cancer has relatively good clinical efficacy and can be a backup treatment scheme.
