Case Report :

Complete remission of recurrent ovarian clear cell carcinoma by chemotherapy with bevacizumab, trabectedin and oxaliplatin .


Abstract
Clear cell carcinoma of the ovary has shown an exceedingly chemo-resistant phenotype, especially in cases that are recurrent or refractory to previous therapy. Also, progression-free survival was less than 6 months, even in the patients that achieved response when they were treated with conventional anti-cancer cytotoxic agents. We present a case with recurrent and refractory ovarian clear cell carcinoma that achieved complete remission using a combination of bevacizumab, trabectedin and oxaliplatin. The progression-free interval of the patient is over 30 months, and she is still receiving the combination therapy without toxicities of more than grade 2.
