Summary
Brief summary (as posted)
RATIONALE: Chemosensitizers may increase the effectiveness of a chemotherapy drug by making tumor cells more sensitive to the drug. PURPOSE: Randomized phase III trial to study the effectiveness of chemosensitivity testing to assign treatment for patients with stage III or stage IV ovarian cancer who have undergone surgery.
