Single agent vs combination chemotherapy in the treatment of ovarian cancer.

One hundred and eight patients with Stage III or IV epithelial ovarian cancers were randomly allocated to treatment with either melphalan or the combination of Actinomycin-D, 5-fluorouracil, and cyclophosphamide (ACFUCY). Those patients receiving the ACFUCY combination had a higher objective response rate and a statistically significantly lower progression rate. The ACFUCY combination gave a higher incidence of severe toxicity.
