Study voluntarily stopped by Principal Investigator due to lack of accrual.

The ultimate clinical aim of this proposed phase I trial is to evaluate the toxicity and determine the recommended phase II dose of combining the effect of LDFWART following administration of docetaxel for 6 cycles in patients with recurrent platinum-resistant ovarian cancer.

Inclusion Criteria:

• 1. Patients must have platinum-resistant disease relapsing within 6 months or less from the date of their last cycle of initial adjuvant chemotherapy recurrent adenocarcinoma from a primary ovarian, tubal, or peritoneal cancer following first-line chemotherapy for metastatic disease. There is no limit on prior number of chemotherapy regimens. Patients who have received prior systemic docetaxel and platinum-based chemotherapy are eligible

• 1.1 Patients must have ≥ 1cm measurable disease on imaging studies independent of patients having an optional surgical salvage procedure.

• 2. Patients must have a life expectancy of at least 6 months.

• 3. Patients must have Karnofsky performance status of ≥ 60 or Gynecology Oncology (GOG) performance status of ≤ 2 (see www.GOG.org website).

• 4. Age 18 - 80 years old

• 5. Patients must have an adequate bone marrow, renal, and hepatic function:

  • 5.1 WBC: ≥ 3,000 /mcl
  • 5.2 ANC: ≥ 1,500 /mcl
  • 5.3 Platelets: ≥ 100,000 /mcl
  • 5.4 Creatinine: < 2.0 mg/dcl
  • 5.5 Bilirubin: < 1.5x institutional normal value
  • 5.6 LDH, GGT, SGPT (ALT), SGOT (AST), and ALK Phos:< 3x institutional normal value.

• 6. Ability to understand and the willingness to sign a written informed consent document.

Exclusion Criteria:

• 1. Patients who have received prior radiotherapy to the chest, whole abdomen, or lower extremities above the knees.
• 2. Patients who have received prior radiation therapy to the head, neck, or lower extremities below the knees if greater than 3 years prior to study entry.
• 3. Evidence of extra-abdominal extension of disease (such as groin nodes, lung, supraclavicular nodes, and pleural fluid).
• 4. Patients may not be receiving any other investigational agents within 4 weeks preceding the start of study treatment) or chemotherapy for at least 3 weeks preceding the start of study treatment.
• 5. Patients who have been diagnosed with another prior malignant tumor within 3 years of study entry, excluding non-melanoma skin cancer and carcinoma in situ of the cervix.
• 6. Patients with prior history of a severe hypersensitivity reaction to paclitaxel (polysorbate 80-Cremophor).
• 7. Patients with current history of uncontrolled hypertension, angina pectoris, heart failure, cardiac dysrhythmias, pericardial disease, cardiomyopathy, or active infection.
• 8. Presence of any medical condition that in the opinion of the investigator deems the patient unable to participate.
