Summary

Patients with advanced ovarian cancer (FIGO stage III C) and highly disseminated tumor will be randomized into two arms: primary debulking surgery followed by adjuvant chemotherapy vs. neoadjuvant chemotherapy followed by interval debulking surgery (IDS). The primary end point is the evaluation and comparison of the surgical complications of primary surgery and IDS and the evaluation of the progression free survival (PFS)

Conditions

  • Stage IIIC Ovarian Cancer

Interventions

DRUG

Neoadjuvant chemotherapy + Interval Debulking Surgery

Patients with suspected advanced ovarian cancer (FIGO stage IIIC) will undergo only to diagnostic laparoscopy. Omental cake, diaphragmatic or peritoneal extensive carcinomatosis, tumor diffusion to the small and large curvature of the stomach, large and/or small bowel mesentery disease, spleen and/or liver metastases will be investigated in order to obtain a laparoscopic score. After neoadjuvant chemotherapy interval debulking surgery will be performed: total hysterectomy, bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy, radical omentectomy, appendectomy, pelvic and paraaortic lymphadenectomy, eventual bowel resection, eventual bladder resection, eventual splenectomy, eventual parietal and diaphragmatic peritonectomy, eventual gastric resection, eventual hepatic resection, eventual pancreas resection, eventual cholecystectomy.

PROCEDURE

Primary Debulking Surgery + Adjuvant Chemotherapy

Patients with suspected advanced ovarian cancer (FIGO stage IIIC) will undergo to diagnostic laparoscopy. Omental cake, diaphragmatic or peritoneal extensive carcinomatosis, tumor diffusion to the small and large curvature of the stomach, large and/or small bowel mesentery disease, spleen and/or liver metastases will be investigated in order to obtain a laparoscopic score. Then, an attempt of laparotomic cytoreduction will be performed: total hysterectomy, bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy, radical omentectomy, appendectomy, pelvic and paraaortic lymphadenectomy, eventual bowel resection, eventual bladder resection, eventual splenectomy, eventual parietal and diaphragmatic peritonectomy, eventual gastric resection, eventual hepatic resection, eventual pancreas resection, eventual cholecystectomy.
