Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Effect of biweekly schedule of PLD on dose-limiting toxicity of PPE and patient's quality of life

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Pegylated liposomal doxorubicin (PLD) formulation has been approved for the treatment of recurrent ovarian cancer (ROC). Toxic skin reactions e.g. palmar-plantar erythrodysesthesia (PPE) were reported as being the dose-limiting toxicity and have an impact on patients' quality of life (QoL). The primary aim of this study was to optimise the toxicity profile by choosing a biweekly schedule of PLD Furthermore, QoL was investigated. Secondary objective of this study was to evaluate the response rates of this new regimen.
