Patient registry
Target follow-up duration
Target follow-up type
Description of intervention(s) / exposure
Observe side effects, nutritional status, inflammatory factors and measure drug clearance of the cycle 1 treatment (21 days):
Paclitaxel 175 mg/m2 in 3 hour intravenous infusion, day 0
Carboplatin AUC 6 in 1 hour intravenous infusion, day 0
Collect Deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) samples for pharmacogenomics purpose
Toxicity observation is implemented during the first cycle only, response observation is implemented after 3 cycles.
Patients recruited over 5 years.
