ZK-Epo given with carboplatin in patients with recurrent ovarian cancer

Trial purpose

The purpose of this study is to evaluate whether treatment with a new drug called ZK-Epothilone (ZK-Epo) given with carboplatin in patients with recurrent ovarian cancer, who previously have had a good response with cisplatin or carboplatin, is safe and helps to decrease or stop tumor growth.
