Long-term survival with advanced ovarian cancer: an analysis of 5-year survivors in the Australian trial comparing combination versus sequential chlorambucil and cisplatin therapy.

Abstract:

:Of 369 patients with apparent advanced ovarian cancer entered on a randomized trial between September 1979 and June 1983, 56 survived more than 5 years. Central pathology review confirmed the diagnosis in 318 cases (15 cases not ovarian primary, 36 slides did not reach central review). Two hundred ninety-eight were invasive cancer and 34 of these (11.4%) patients were alive at 5 years. The remaining 20 cases were tumors of low malignant potential and 17 (85%) were alive at 5 years. The clinical, pathological, and treatment characteristics of these long-term survivors has been ascertained. No significant difference in survival has emerged between the two treatment arms being compared--combination chlorambucil and cisplatin versus sequential chlorambucil followed by cisplatin on treatment failure. Of 298 cases of invasive cancer there were 133 with residuum less than 2 cm after initial surgery and 20 of these (15%) survived 5 years compared with 14/165 (8.5%) of those with more tumor residuum. Clinical response was a poor indicator of survival. Only 7 of 46 (15%) patients with complete clinical response survived 5 years; however, of 44 patients with complete surgical response, 29 (65.9%) were alive at 5 years. These results highlight the improved survival prospects of women with low-potential malignancy, even in advanced stage, compared to those with invasive tumors and make a strong case for central pathology review of all cases of apparent ovarian cancer entered on randomized trials.
