Overview
Brief Summary
Randomized clinical trial to asses the efficacy of closed abdomen hyperthermia intraperitoneal chemotherapy with paclitaxel in ovarian cancer.
Detailed Description
Randomized clinical trial performed in woman with epithelial primary ovarian cancer (stage FIGO II, III and IV) or tumor recurrence. A cytoreductive surgery will be perform in all of the patients include in the trial, and it will be assign at randomization: * HIPEC-arm: cytoreductive surgery and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy with paclitaxel (175 mg / m2) for 60 minutes at a temperature of 42-43º degrees; followed by postoperative systemic IV chemotherapy with carboplatin (AUC=6) and paclitaxel (175 mg/m2) for 6 cycles. * No HIPEC-arm: Cytoreductive surgery followed by postoperative systemic IV chemotherapy with carboplatin (AUC=6) and paclitaxel (175 mg/m2) for 6 cycles.

Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion Criteria
- •Women with histologically confirmed epithelial ovarian cancer (stage II / III / IV disease of FIGO) or tumor recurrences (the women of childbearing age need to have a negative pregnancy test)
- •Complete cytoreduction: Index CC0/CC1 cytoreduction (residual tumor size after surgery, no visible (CC0) or less than 0.25 cm (CC1))
