Abstract

Brain metastases developed in a 40-year-old woman with relapsed ovarian cancer 2 years after cisplatin-based combination chemotherapy. After a single dose of 800 mg/m² carboplatin, complete remission of the brain metastases occurred. A pharmacokinetic study during the second course revealed low levels of carboplatin in the cerebrospinal fluid.
