β¦ Synopsis
BACKGROUND.
Stage 111 ovarian carcinoma has shown resistance to adjuvant chemotherapy following surgical cytoreduction. With recurrence of ovarian carcinoma, cell lines may develop resistance to previously used chemotherapy. This contributes to the fact that survival rates for patients with ovarian carcinoma have not been dramatically improved in decades. The objective of this study is to evaluate radiotherapy as a cisplatin-sensitizer in a cisplatin-resistant ovarian carcinoma cell line.

## Abstract In order to elucidate the mechanisms underlying the development of chemoresistance in ovarian cancer, we have previously established the IGROV1βR10 cisplatinβresistant cell line by mimicking a clinical protocol of drug administration on IGROV1 human ovarian carcinoma cells. Both IGROV1
