All 1192 diagnosed invasive EOC Australia 2005 identified through state-based registries. Medical record information including details treatment was obtained data updated 2012. Those started on standard (carboplatin paclitaxel given at three-weekly intervals) after cytoreductive surgery included (n = 351) the relative dose intensity (RDI) calculated. Time interval between start analysed weeks. Hazard ratios [HR, 95% confidence (CI)] calculated using multivariable Cox proportional hazards models.Results. Compared to RDI 91–100%, those ≤ 70% had significantly poor (HRadj 1.62, CI 1.05–2.49). This associatio...
