Mitomycin C plus cisplatin for systemic treatment of recurrent BRCA1-associated ovarian cancer
Background Previous studies on neoadjuvant therapy for BRCA1-driven ovarian cancer (OC) demonstrated higher efficacy of mitomycin C plus cisplatin combination as compared to standard drug schemes. These data call for evaluation of the utility of this regimen for the treatment of recurrent BRCA1-associated OC. Methods The study included 12 BRCA1 germ-line mutation carriers, whose disease relapsed after one (n = 4) or two (n = 8) lines of chemotherapy. The patients received cisplatin 100 mg/m
