Anti-cancer drugs
-
Elderly patients with ovarian cancer are an increasing population and many of them are frailty with an increased risk of postoperative complications, chemotherapy intolerance and mortality. Metronomic chemotherapy is the chronic administration of low, equally spaced, doses of antineoplastic drugs with therapeutic efficacy and low toxicity. ⋯ The patient has received oral metronomic cyclophosphamide with a long-lasting clinical response and improved performance status. Oral metronomic cyclophosphamide is a promising treatment for elderly and frailty advanced ovarian cancer patients and should be further investigated.
