Summary
Brief summary (as posted)
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as carboplatin and paclitaxel, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or stopping them from dividing. Giving chemotherapy drugs before surgery may make the tumor smaller and reduce the amount of normal tissue that needs to be removed. PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying how well giving paclitaxel together with carboplatin before surgery works in treating patients with advanced ovarian epithelial cancer, fallopian tube cancer, or primary peritoneal cavity cancer.
